Maine chat: my best friend and army buddy is from Maine. I'd love to move there to be able to hang out with him all the time. Just chill out doing Dad things together, hunting fishing shooting guns and drinking beer. Like no poo poo just going to his place makes me feel calm from all my sadbrains bullshit. Next time I'm out there I'm gonna twist his arm to go camping in the Allagash wilderness and go hike Mt Katahdin. Trying to figure out what I should take him to do when him and his wife come visit me in Washington this summer. Most definitely Rainier and St Helens.

Man now you're making me want to go camping, I haven't gone since I was in Scouts as a kid.

So with all the TBI addled heads still in the military, what happens when they inevitably gently caress up their SF-86? Is TBI a mitigating thing for mistakes? That sounds fair, but doesn't sound good.

In an email sent to the Houston Chronicle, a spokesperson revealed, "In 1964, the company paid a marketing firm to come up with a different name. They said, 'Well, you guys do Analytical Technology – why don’t you put the two words together and call it ‘AnalTech!' ”

However, the spokesperson admitted that "AnalTech faces certain challenges because of the 'juvenile' humor that has developed in the past few decades and current web filters that may block the company name" and has considered rebranding as a result.

Definitely an easier Hike than Rainier but Oyster Dome leaves you at the end, sitting on a loving high cliff, eating lunch, and more than once when I've been there, had Hawks and Eagles circling not even 100 feet away, just either straight out from me or just below me. Great view as well. Or try Mt. Pilchuck with them, but do that during a week day. Weekends Pilchuck is stupid busy.

Both are easier hikes, but both do payoff huge with great views.

Last time my then girlfriend/now wife hiked Mt. Pilchuck, we picked blueberries on the way up and the way down. We made Blueberry cobbler when we got home with those wild blueberries.

For the record, both of these are hikes that are well north of Seattle.

If you hit up Oyster Dome, though, go to Boomer's afterwards for great burgers and hard ice cream milkshakes. Seriously, those milkshakes are the poo poo. It's maybe half an hour north of Oyster Dome's trailhead. So good.

Well, out definitely ducking should. Seattle and the area north of Seattle to the Canadian border are pretty awesome.

The cascades in general, really. Anyone should try to hike around Stehekin if they can.
