I think Kenny takes it. In Denver it looked like after he got into 2nd he was completely content with it and had the mindset ride within his limits, waiting to see if Hunter crashes on his own or has mechanical (unlikely for both), still leaving with the points lead. I think if Kenny gets a better start, he will...

I remember the late 90s early 2000s hearing about it. Fast forward 15ish years and my wife asked me about home schooling our kids. I was hesitant at first, but now after doing it for almost 10 years, I can't imagine doing it any other way. We don't race, so we didn't do it so little Jimmy could be the...

I just turned 40 this year. 4 kids, 14g, 13b, 11g, 10b. The value of time (or lack of) has never been higher. All the kids ride, but the boys are definitely more into it than the girls. We are fortunate we have a small track at the house. The boys ride a lot. I've got a Honda 450 that...

We've used a 750j before. I was partial to cat only because we have 2 others and chasing parts at multiple brand dealerships is tough. We try and stick with one brand and run with it. With that said, I might have to take a closer look at the deere. thanks

I'm looking for a dozer for pushing topsoil off a large pile (2ish acres). Long story short, we sell topsoil and occasionally need to rip the top 4-8" of the pile, let it dry and push off the dry material. I currently have a D4 and D5 but was looking into D6's. I've been doing some reading and am looking...

I'm 38, soon to be 39. 4 kids (12g, 11b, 9g, 8b). My wife home schools them. I had a similar childhood to the others stated. My kids all like to be outside. The biggest thing that helps is limiting their tech time. TV, tablets, phones, computer. 30 min a day. That's all they've ever known and don't fight us...

The wolf reintroduction is challenging on many fronts. I can tell you first hand in wisconsin/UP of Michigan (we had an estimated 100 in 1999-2000 and now have an estimate of 800-1400) it has decimated the deer population in the north. The DNR has done a poor job of managing them from the start and public opinion is very low...
My 8 year old Charles (we usually call chuck) was kind of in a mood when I got home from work the other day. I asked him what was wrong, and straight faced he said, "mom's been barking at me all day" and walked away like nothing happened. I was speechless and laughing all at the same time
Best track and most fun was at a private track in southwest WI. Marty Leum had a track there, not sure if it's still going or not. It had rained the day before, it was between red bud and Millville. 40 people had to have shown up. The Martin Brothers were there. Jeremy was on an 80 or big wheel...

I have quickbooks enterprise at our office. We have 5 licenses and I use the payroll subscription/function and do our payroll as well. We have 18 employees. It was $267/month last year and now is $388.50/month. If I remember right, they charge me a little more for sending out w2s. All the staff is familiar with it so I'm reluctant...
