Playing the waiting game...and losing

A 'real' gps, huh? I didn't know there were different kinds. I figured they could all go off road if you wanted them too. Doh! Haha

Would you believe it if I told you I'm not a blonde in real life? Lol
You could be if you wanted to. All it takes is a quick trip to the local drug store. I can take my Tom Tom off road, tho I'm not sure how long the battery would last. Resist the urge to quick dry your crop. Or at least set aside most of it for a normal cure. I have found the desire for it becomes much less after a week of not having it.

The high mountains are my very favorite place to burn mad bowls... breeze in the face, strolling through stunning, make-you-feel-small grandeur... and a nug of stinky homegrown to pass around in some less-windy nook! The idea of "couch-lock," at least for a dude like me, just doesn't manifest itself in reality- I mean, I tend to smoke and GO.

Of course if you're playing the waiting game, gettin out and gettin after it is probably a great idea for passing the time anyway! And if you've a mountain trailhead right behind your house, well damn straight smokin with a view is good as it gets! Plus you'll meet like-mindeds, maybe even one with a boat! Here's a couple High In The Mountains pix... I DO like climbing mountains, and actually scored my first AK bag from a stranger at a trailhead! He hee...

Lastly Peach, I hate to break it to you but I doubt your schedule of 65 days is realistic. Sorry. Breeder-published germ-to-harvest dates are, in my experience, extremely optimistic. Yes there's journals online of people finishing plants in 8 weeks from seed. But all my autos (10+ so far) have taken at least 85 days, and all but 2 could have gone 100-110. Yes you CAN harvest just over 2 months in, but if you've done a good job of gardening AND the genetics aren't f'ed (happens a small % of the time with autos, still) its WELL WORTH WAITING til the girls are done. Many if not most strains bulk up tremendously in their last week or 2, and if you're just an occasional smoker the difference in weight between a barely-late harvest and one at 68-days may amount to a month or 2 of smoke. Not to mention that it'll likely be tastier, more powerful and better in every way. Of course when you're dry, well things'll be different of course.

Meanwhile, hopefully you'll bump into a friendly RIU-er at a trailhead soon. Best of luck!

I smoked on a beach in a cave in mexico and left the pipe lighter a LOT of mexi brick weed and a note saying to "leave more weed and the pipe" if found at the back of the cave! I always wonder what happened to it!!
Someone snuck off to that cave for a good time and had an even better time!! They prolly search every cave they come to now...lol

Those pics are absolutely amazing...especially that second one!

And boooo on it taking even longer! I was hopeful I could get that first batch done with the quickness, but I know that good things really do come to those who wait. So I'll try my very best not to ruin all my hard work at the end of the game by rushing things. :/

Oh and I'm with you on smoking and going. I love to light up and clean or do a nice workout. It gets me in the zone and I'm a zillion times more productive because I'm not thinking so much about how long it's been or how much more I have left to do. I just go at it.

Operation get some AK to GA: COMPLETE! Enjoy GApeach! Next time we'll have ya meet some of the folks
Oh yeah! I feel much, much better now. :)
I went to thunderbird falls with the perfect buzz today. I know it sounds so cliche to say it really helps you enjoy nature better, but it's true. I loved it.
Alaska + Bud = Amazing

Thanks again!!!

Welcome To ALASKA @GApeach and welcome to RIU!

Good buds are plentiful here, even in anchorage, I'm sure you'll be fine once you meet a few people!;)

Great post love the moon over my hammy shot.
I left a phat sack of some kind hawaiian on the big island north of the airport on a long gravel road that goes to a secluded beach. Never geo cached it on the website though. good god we had scored a quarter on our last day. figured I had smoke at home so just play it safe and leave the rest there. we smoked so much i have no memory of flying home.
