Hello friends:
As we settle on Grenada as our next destination just want to ask for your assessment of their grocery stores. My presumption is that since its a pretty big island their selections are pretty good?
We thought about packing some frozen steaks/chicken etc as we intend to cook in our villa for some of the nights...but if quality is good there I may not want to go through that trouble. Any advice is welcome. We do bring spices with us on most trips.
In addition, where can we find fresh catch? From what I've heard there's a fish market in Grenville?
Also, how much is a case of Carib there? And rum is cheap no?

Groceries in Grenada
Hello friends:
Report Abuse
In our 3 vacations in Grenada we have always stayed at the Blue Horizons Resort in Grande Anse. We usually do all of our grocery shopping at the nearby (10 minute walk) Spiceland Mall. There is another grocery store nearby at the Grand Anse Plaza but we found it a little more expensive than the Spiceland.
This grocery store has a good variety of meat, chicken and fish on offer. There is a deli counter at the back of the store that has wonderful Jamaican patties and other fresh baked items. While the fruit is reasonably priced some of the vegetables are a little more expensive than at home.
Here is a sample of prices that I had indicated in the last trip report I wrote on Grenada in 09. You will get 2.67EC for 1 US dollar.
26 oz. bottle of Westerhall rum....14.40EC
6 Carib....18.00EC
6 Ting.....15.50
6 Pepsi.....16.00
5 litres of water....8.60
1 litre of milk....3.66.
Reasonable conclusion......drink rum.
I don't know about getting fresh fish in Grenville (on opposite side of island from Grand Anse) but you can certainly get fresh fish at the local market in St. Georges. If you really like fish I have heard/read many reports about Fish Friday in Gouyave. Apparently the various fish on offer is fantastic.
We usually have breakfast in our villa, lunch when were out and about and dinner in the villa. Again, while some food items we find a little costly most items are comparable to home.
Report Abuse
We used the grocery store at the Spiceland Mall for most of our grocery needs. We never bought fish, meat, or chicken on the island, though. I also recommend using the roadside stands OR the downtown market for getting your produce taken care of. It will be fresher and less expensive than in the grocery store--but cash only for the transactions. THe spice market can be a little intimidating if you're not inclined to bargain, and sometimes it's hard to choose who to buy from. That's one reason I like the roadside stands. There's collection of produce stands right by the roundabout that leads into LAE (Lanse Aux Epines), or at least there was last year.
Report Abuse
Many foods in the grocery stores in Grenada are from the U.S. -- even the milk and some eggs, as I recall. We have purchased frozen meats in these stores, including New Zealand lamb and U.S. steaks, and have found the meat to be good. Freezing is probably wise in a tropical climate.
We also purchased some foods from small grocery stores away from St. Georges. If you drive around the island, you're likely to encounter these stores. Fresh local eggs, fruits, and vegetables. Bought some local chicken at one such store -- found it a bit tough. I think that the local chickens roam around and develop a bit more muscle than U.S. cage-raised chickens, and the Grenada birds seem to be a bit bigger and would be great stewed. Mind you, I'm basing this on very limited experience during 3 visits to Grenada.
Report Abuse
>>We thought about packing some frozen steaks/chicken etc<< Have you checked whether importing meat products to Grenada is allowed? Grenada is the spice island so would not bother bringing spices, Grenville does indeed have a great fish market. I bought some cinnamon and cloves from Grenville, cheaper than around St Georges and nutmegs and mace from the processing plant in Gouyave.
Report Abuse
You should also ask ahead of time what might be provided in the villa's kitchen so that you don't waste suitcase space bringing your own if it's already there. If you're renting from Nick at Spice Isle Villas, he should be able to answer you pretty well about that. Most villas will have at least salt & pepper on hand, and many may have a full line of spices/herbs to cook with.
And for spices like nutmeg, cinammon, mace, cloves--these are grown on Grenada and you might want to buy those locally as odin suggests. And if you can find any, buy some Grenadian vanilla while you're there 'cause it's excellent!

And so, it begins! (My '88 YJ Project)
I figured I should start documenting my project before I get too far into it, so I took some pics of my 1988 YJ in "as delivered" condition. I've got big plans for it, but it's got some pressing issues (exhaust and brakes) that need to be addressed before I really dive in to the "fun stuff".
So... Here it is as it sits today:
You can see that the original body mount bushings (under the goofy 3" body lift spacers) are shot. I've got a Prothane 1" body lift coming to replace that.
While I've got the mounts off I'll be wire brushing and painting everything frame related with Chassis Saver. I've also got a few cans of Eastwood internal frame paint on the way for the inside of the frame.
The exhaust is shot as well. I've got an OEM-type Walker exhaust (manifold-to-bumper) also enroute.
More to come...

Subscribed. I always enjoy a good build thread!
I hope it turns into a "good build thread"! :)
Not 10 minutes after hitting submit on my last post, the FedEx guy pulled up and dropped off the Prothane 1" body lift kit!
nice project! Looks like a really solid start for sure!
looks like a good project to start on have fun, will look forward to seeing pictures as you move along with it
My new parking brake cables and exhaust showed-up yesterday. I'm stopping by the paint shop to pick-up some Chassis Saver on the way home today, and I've got my tools all ready to rumble.
I'm ready to get rolling this weekend! I'll get things started tonight by brushing off a bunch of the loose rust on the frame so I have less to do tomorrow while my tub is in the air.
Good luck with the project. I really miss Ohio.
I ran in to a couple snags this weekend. As it turns out, whoever did the 3" body lift really "engineered" more than I thought. I spent a few hours just getting the radiator and fan shroud back where they needed to be, a few hours (and three really expensive sawzall blades) getting the nerf bars off, and that was before I even started on the body mounts! :censored:
Out of the 11 body mount bolts, I got 6 loose without much problem, 3 won't budge (I used my impact wrench and even tried a breaker bar, but didn't want to snap the bolts) and 2 are just spinning... Time to call in some reinforcements I guess. :(
The real problem is that the lower bushings on the body mounts were just barely hanging on (se picture above). When I started loosening bolts, they just fell off so, if I need to take the Jeep somewhere there is no way for me to tighten the body back down. Should make for an interesting ride. :blackeye
Please show details of the spun nuts and broken bolts as you're extracting them. All the threads mention them but leave out photos.
Will do!
I called the local 4x4 shop to discuss options, and they said it'd be 2-3 hours for EACH stuck or spinning bolt, at a cost of $95/hour for labor. So that'd be $200-300/bolt x 5 bolts = :censored:
Looks like it's the angle grinder and some cutting wheels for me!
Right now I'm looking for pictures of where exactly to cut the floor to get at the bolts. I'm seeing miscellaneous pictures of people cutting their floors, but there doesn't seem to be a "definitive" pictorial out there... or maybe my Google-fu is just weak.
Now the hunt for the appropriate nuts and washers begins! And I need to decide how many of the bolts I'm going to do, since I'm cutting anyway. ;)
which body mounts are in question? I may be able to find a pic or two from when I replaced my floors. Let me offer this much, There is a small bubble in the floor behind the front seats near the bottom of the cage that is there for clearance for the body mount bolt. The front most mount on the body is the easiest to deal with if you have to cut it. There is separation from the support and the floor and you can get your hand up in there and just use a nut when re-installing. There was a rubber splash guard thing covering the gap so it is not obvious. Hope this helps a little.
Please be sure to check the frame rails at the rear wheels (near the spring mount).. From the looks of the rust on the frame in your pics, you may have some cancer there. You may want to be prepared to take care of it while the in is up.
IIRC (haven't looked at it since Saturday), the red stars are not moving, the yellow are spinning and the green are loose without issue.
I've tried the "pry down with a crowbar while turning the bolt" deal on the spinners. No go.
As for the frame rust, it is all superficial. A lot of the rusty scale in the picture was old undercoat and surface rust. I scraped and wire brushed the crap out of it and it looks pretty damned good. No rot. I drilled the drain holes in the frame while I was under there and washed it all out.
I've also got some Eastwood internal frame paint and some Chassis Black for the outside. I'll be doing that while I have the body mounts off each side and the tub in the air.
How are you prepping the frame for the chassis paint?
Blasting? drill? Hand and paper?
According to the manufacturer of the Chassis Saver frame paint, I only need to remove the loose scale and degrease. Then I'll just paint over what surface rust is left.
I'm not going for full restoration. When it's all said-and-done, it'll still be a beat-up, old Jeep. ;)
I'm going to paint the tops of the frame rails and all the body bushing perches while I'm swapping body mounts (one side at a time). Once it's back down on the new mounts I'll do the internal frame paint, then finish the outsides of the frame rails.
Thanks for the thread, I have this to do too! and Hi from Columbus lol!
I got bolt #4 (as pictured above) loose, and I drilled some little access holes for the two rear bolts so I could get some PB Blaster on the business ends. I'll hit them tomorrow and Friday again, then try the impact wrench again on Saturday. If they come out I should have the body drop done this weekend!
Good idea with the small holes for PB Blaster. Again, feel free to cut #2 because it can be accessed from above.
I may end up having to cut quite a few of the bolts, but not because they're not turning. I'll post a picture of what I mean when I get time but, let's just say that my opinion that big body lifts are bad has been reaffirmed with this project.
I didn't get a lot of time to work on it yesterday, but I hit a couple more snags. Today I have to run out and see if I can find some taller jack stands locally. :(
I did get the last couple of bolts loose, though!
BODY LIFTS SUCK! :censored:
Taking this 3" BL out is proving to be a lot more of a job than I anticipated. The (3") longer bolts are bent, worn or rust-welded into the retainer sleeves. Every single mount is a new problem!
My angle grinder and sawzall have never gotten so much use... and I'm not even done with the first side yet!
I agree that body lifts suck, but I think your issue is more of a "buying a Jeep in the rust belt problem". I feel for you. When I was tearing down my Jeep I got to the point where I just stopped trying the wrenches and cut everything.
I guess I should've qualified that by saying that body lifts that stack a puck on top of the factory bushings suck. A lot.
I did have some rust issues, but that's not my main problem. I got all of the bolts loose without cutting or breaking any. The big problem is that having the stacked spacers gives everything too much play, and the extra long bolts just make things worse.
I've got a few bolts that are actually worn out-of-round because, evidently, they had to much play and rubbed on the factory retainers. The "lips" worn into the bolts are making them difficult to remove as they are wedged in to the factory retainers at an angle.
Having the stacked spacers has also caused the top part of the rubber factory mount to get hammered down into the holes in the perches. Since it's mushroomed out the bottom, it puts even more pressure on the retainer's sleeve, locking it fast in place. I've had to cut out what rubber I could get to and use a crowbar to pry out the retainers.
Now I see why the 4x4 shop wanted to charge me $200-300/bolt!
It's frustrating, but I'll get it! :D
You are making progress and you will get there. I am on 2 1/2 years on my current build... these things take time.
I made some really good progress on my Jeep this weekend. I did a LOT more scraping, wire-brushing and painting on the frame and underbody. I'm ready to drop the passenger side back down onto the new body bushings. Then I can start on the driver's side.
I started looking for all the bits and pieces I'd need to rebuild the rear (drum) brakes. Did I mention I *HATE* drum brakes? I got to thinking, and did some online reading, and then I bought the entire rear disc setup off of a 1996 Grand Cherokee instead. I've got the backing plates, calipers, rotors, brake lines, and e-brake cables on the way. Total cost was $100 + $35 shipping.
I swear it's a sickness. :)
I haven't posted any pictures of my Jeep for a while, so here are a couple with the new Prothane 1" body lift (2" drop for me :)) installed.
I still have a bunch more frame painting to do, and the exhaust, and the brakes... I also have to fix my transfer case linkage now that the body is back down to a more normal height (it has the spacer bracket in there for the 3" BL that was installed).
But I'm making progress! :D
I got the old exhaust off tonight. I got the downpipe and new cat in place, but I'm having issues routing the tailpipe over the trackbar. Is there a way to do it without taking the trackbar off, or am I stuck taking it off?
Had the same problem when I went to replace mine. The trick is to jack up the body on that side and the resulting droop will give you enough room to get it through there. Good luck, Dave

I don't know personally. But I've read probably have a dozen posts asking the same question and they all get told to remove the track bar. Just saying
Take the track bar off and don't put it back on. Might not be what you want to hear, but you don't need it anyway.
I like the thought of putting the GC brakes on your D35. I thought about that a while back when I had my drive train donor GC.

Story Behind this Recipe
I used to avoid kegani (hair crab) because it can hurt you and it was a bother to shell. If only I'd know how to do it earlier, so I decided to upload the steps.
Kegani (hair crab, a type of crab with sharp 'hair' on the shell) tends to be avoided because it can hurt you if you handle it. But you can get the meat out of it with minimal pain. There are a lot of steps listed, but once you get used to it you can shell one in about 10 minutes.

"The issue revolves around the closure of PT Kizone, a factory in Indonesia with which adidas, along with Nike and the Dallas Cowboys, had contracts for the manufacture of goods. According to a report produced by the Worker Rights Consortium (WRC), violations at PT Kizone began in September 2010 when it failed to make mandatory terminal compensation payments to employees who left the factory. In December 2010, the factory failed to make regularly scheduled payments to current employees. The owner of the factory then fled Indonesia in January 2011. Thereafter, the buying agent, Green Textile, ran the factory and paid workers through March 2011. In April 2011, PT Kizone was declared bankrupt and closed.
The WRC, United Students Against Sweatshops (USAS) and other worker rights advocacy groups claimed adidas was refusing to pay $1.8 million in legally mandated severance owed to the 2,800 workers of PT Kizone. Total severance and other pay due under Indonesian law to the workers, who had no advance notice of the factory's closure, totaled $3.3 million. Both Nike and the Dallas Cowboys contributed partial severance, but for nearly two years, adidas has maintained it does not owe any of the monies.

Hasty surrender leaves a lasting legacy
By Patty Kruszewski, Citizen Managing Editor 03/10/11
It was with no small amount of trepidation that Richmond mayor Joseph Mayo set out toward Osborne Turnpike in Eastern Henrico County at daybreak on April 3, 1865.
The day before, as Confederate lines around Petersburg continued to dissolve in the face of Union assaults, Gen. Robert E. Lee had sent a message to Confederate President Jefferson Davis. "I think it is absolutely necessary that we should abandon our position tonight," wrote Lee.
Receiving the message while at Sunday worship, Davis slipped quietly out of church, and evacuation plans began. Troops were told to set fire to all cotton, tobacco, and munitions warehouses to keep them from falling into Federal hands. The city council appointed a committee to accompany Mayor Mayo on an impromptu carriage ride so that he could surrender to Union forces east of Richmond.
Unfortunately, Mayo didn't know who was in command of those forces.
As Nelson Lankford tells the story in his book Richmond Burning: The Last Days of the Confederate Capital, Mayo went in search of the Union commander with only a vaguely addressed document bearing the words "The General Commanding the Army of the United States in front of the City of Richmond."
Mayo could only hope that by the time he reached the line of trenches along Osborne Turnpike, about two miles out, he would find the commander and complete his errand.
Meanwhile, outside the city, Federal troops had spotted smoke rising over Richmond and discovered empty tents abandoned by Confederates in withdrawal. Major Atherton Stevens prepared to march into town, leading a detachment of about 40 men from the 4th Massachusetts Cavalry up Osborne Turnpike.
Near the junction of the turnpike with New Market Road, Stevens met the mayor's carriage, and Mayo handed him the surrender note near a tree that still stands today. The act ranks No. 20 on the Henrico Citizen's list of the most significant moments in Henrico history.
"A native of Cambridge, Mass., Stevens had turned 39 the day before," writes Lankford. "Receiving the note surrendering the Confederate capital was a welcome belated birthday present." Stevens accepted the note and told the mayor that he would forward it to his commander, Maj. Gen. Godfrey Weitzel.
"Imagine Mayo's relief," wrote Lankford, "when Stevens assured him that the U.S. Army intended to protect the people and property."
As the mayor and his escorts returned to the city, Stevens and his party also continued toward Richmond by way of Rocketts Landing, where President Abraham Lincoln would land next day. Not far behind rode General Weitzel and his staff.
Only 30 years old himself, Weitzel had attended West Point during the time that Robert E. Lee was superintendent of the Academy and had spent many an hour at Lee's home there. Having given the order that his brigade was to lead the division into the city, Weitzel passed ahead of his infantry columns along Osborne Turnpike – to loud cheers from the troops.
For days afterwards, Lankford wrote, the hot topic in northern newspapers was which Union regiment reached Richmond first. Some accounts said that soldiers from the U.S. Colored Troops headed the columns entering the city.
Thomas Chester, an African American journalist who marched with the USCT, supported the claims of black troops who said they were first over the city line. In Washington, Gen. Benjamin Butler told a crowd it that it was "divine retribution" that black soldiers were first to liberate Richmond.
Lankford, however, suspects that the colored troops, like everyone else, were halted while still on the outskirts of town.
"Despite the sense of poetic justice that story represented to many northerners," he wrote, "it probably was exaggeration."
Among the soldiers who paused at Tree Hill Farm (owned by Unionist Franklin Stearns) were members of the 12th New Hampshire Volunteers. From their perch above the city, they had a view of Richmond burning. Many of them – "aware that they were witnessing history in the making," noted Lankford – took advantage of the wait to pen letters home.
"The sergeant wrote his on a sheet torn from a ledger book left by a Georgia regiment," Lankford wrote. "His companions found a peacock and cut off its tail to send feathers home as mementos in their letters."
At 8:15 a.m. at City Hall, Weitzel formally accepted the terms of surrender from Mayo. He ordered his troops to put out the fires, and, upon learning that Mrs. Lee was in her residence on Franklin St., sent a guard to protect her. His famous telegram, dispatched to General Ulysses S.Grant soon afterwards, began, "We entered Richmond at a quarter past eight this morning. . ."
Within hours, Lankford wrote, the first "tourists" appeared on the scene, steaming up the James from Norfolk and reaching Varina landing at dawn Tuesday. Leading the unauthorized visit was David Farragut, who brought several of his officers and their wives.
A number of souvenirs from the Jefferson Davis residence went home with the Norfolk party. But it was Emma Doane, wife of the ship's purser, who apparently captured the biggest prize: the surrender note.
Long before the Civil War, Tree Hill already had been notable as one of the largest early plantations. During the post-Revolutionary War period it became a center of horse racing in the area and was visited by the Marquis de Lafayette in 1825.
With the surrender of Richmond, however, Tree Hill gained another measure of fame. As Lankford noted, "Although there were two surrenders, and the second one [at City Hall] was the formal ceremony, the more important event was the hurried surrender when Mayo rode out to meet Union soldiers east of the Capitol in Henrico."
On Sept. 24, 2011, Henrico County will celebrate its 400th anniversary year with an encampment and exhibits at Tree Hill Farm, 6404 Osborne Turnpike. The event will include living history demonstrations and exhibits, and a ceremony to honor those who were Medal of Honor recipients for valor on Henrico soil. For details, visit Henrico400th.com.

Police release photo of hoax bomb
Citizen Staff Reports Public Safety
Henrico Police have released a photo of the clock that resembled a bomb that led to the arrest of a Richmond woman in Shot Pump earlier this week.
The device, which the woman told police she purchased at a yard sale, was visible in her car at the Whole Foods at West Broad Village May 19, and a passerby called police, fearing it was a real bomb. Police responded as they would have had the device been real, they said, because they weren't sure if it was real or not.

Henrico school buses with compliance issue to be fixed this summer
The 176 Henrico school buses that have been purchased since March 2011 will be fixed during the summer, Henrico Schools spokesman Andy Jenks told the Citizen. The bus manufacturers will retrofit the buses at no cost to the school division, he said.
The brake interlock device is required on all automatic transmission buses in Virginia that were purchased after March 2011, which is when the device was added to the state Board of Education's requirements for school buses. As many as 4,000 school buses in the state may be affected, according to the Virginia Department of Education.

About the Property
3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, Gorgeous Cabin, Beautifully Furnished. Great Location!
This light-filled and airy cabin, Red Pines Lodge, radiates hospitality and comfort, and is the essence of 'roughing it in style'. The cabin is situated in a beautiful forest of tall Ponderosa pines, firs, and aspens, just 1.5 miles from the heart of Duck Creek Village. Outside you'll appreciate the rustic log construction, and plenty of parking. The enormous wrap-around covered deck features a gas grill, dining for 6, and seating for all to enjoy the cool breezes, glimpses of the Pink Cliffs, or morning coffee while watching the sun rise. In the evening, sit around the backyard firepit on log benches, and make s'mores and memories under the stars.
Inside, you'll love the striking tongue and groove knotty pine walls throughout the house, as well as the columns and railings made from native aspen. Cathedral windows bathe the Great Room in light. Here you can enjoy a cozy fire in the woodstove that sits on its stone hearth, while you relax with a book, TV, or surround-sound music. Also on the Main Level you'll find the outsized and well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, and a gas range for the gourmet cook; the Dining area with seating for 6-8; a pretty guest bedroom with a queen bed and private door onto the deck; and a full bath.
On the upper level is a beautiful loft area overlooking the Great Room, and featuring a computer work center ready for you to enjoy the high-speed wireless (throughout the house). Also on the upper level is the huge Master Suite, with its en suite bath including a tiled jetted tub, and a separate shower.
On the lower level is a large and comfy Family Room with tv and lots of seating, and access to the outside patio area. Also on this lower level is the third bedroom (the Buckaroo Room) with two twin beds; a full bath; and the laundry room with washer and dryer.
This cabin can sleep 8 people, using the two queen bedrooms, two twin beds, the queen sofa sleeper in the Great Room. Two additional are possible using a comfortable queen-size inflatable bed that can go anywhere (although we recommend this for children rather than adults). Any occupancy over 8, however, must be approved by the owner prior to rental. Absolutely maximum occupancy is 10, including all children. With three full baths, one on each level of the cabin, there is plenty of access for all. Red Pines Lodge is perfect for a family gathering or a group of friends.
The cabin sits on a level, forested lot, with easy year-round access. National Forest land is only a couple of hundred yards away, and ATV and snowmobile trails are right at hand. Hiking, fishing, biking, skiing, and a myriad of other outdoor activities are all in close proximity as well. Duck Creek and the surrounding area are truly a natural outdoor paradise.
Please note: The cabin has an 10 person maximum, including children and infants, unless approved by owner. A per person charge may apply. We do not rent to "house parties" or unruly groups. We welcome those who will respect our cabin, and the natural environment of Cedar Mountain. If you are looking for a cabin for a smaller number of people, please ask us about Cedar Hollow, our log cabin in Strawberry Valley that accommodates 4-6 people.
Further Details - And Things to Do: Hiking, bicycling, fishing, hunting, ATV fun, snowmobiling, skiing, and horseback riding are just a few of the activities in the area. Aspen Mirror Lake and Duck Creek Pond, popular fishing spots for all ages, are just outside Duck Creek Village and within minutes of the cabin. Navajo Lake, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Brian Head Ski and Summer Resort, and Lake Panguitch are all a short drive away. The many marvels of Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Monument are each less than 45 minutes away. And only a little further away are such amazing spots as The Escalante-Grand Staircase National Monument, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon (about 2 hours to the North Rim Lodge and Bright Angel), and Capital Reef National Park. For antique shopping and theater, visit Cedar City (30 mile drive), renowned for its annual Utah Shakespeare Festival in summer and early fall, held on the lovely campus of Southern Utah University.

Distances from Duck Creek Village to: Aspen Mirror Lake 1/4 mile; Brian Head 23 miles; Bryce Canyon NP 42 miles; Zion Natl Park 45 miles; Cascade Falls 4 miles; Cedar Breaks NM 15 miles; Cedar City / I-15 29 miles; Escalante-Grand Staircase NM (Cannonville entrance) 57 miles; Highway 89, 8 miles; Kanab 49 miles; Las Vegas 198 miles; Mammoth Cave 5.5 miles; Navajo Lake 7.5 miles; Panguitch Lake 32 miles

Red Pines Lodge is located in the Duck Creek Pines area of Duck Creek Village, Utah. Duck Creek is surrounded by Dixie National Forest. Equidistant between Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks, and only 2 hours from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, the area abounds with natural beauty and year-round outdoor activities for all ages. It's an ideal vacation spot for your entire family. With elevations ranging between 8,400 & 11,000 feet, summers are sunny and cool, and winters are cozy and peaceful. You can enjoy yourself fishing in clear lakes and streams; hiking the trails through the fir, pine, and aspen trees; bicycling, horseback riding, boating and miles of ATV riding in the summer; snowmobiling and skiing in winter. Navajo Lake, Duck Creek Pond, Aspen Mirror Lake and Panguitch Lake are relaxing escapes from urban life. During the fall season, magnificent splashes of yellow, orange, red, brown & gold dot vistas of the forest. Winter brings a complete change of scenery. Snowmobilers and cross country skiers enjoy a winter wonderland on miles of hidden beauty. Nearby you can hike to gorgeous Cascade Falls, or take a short drive out to Strawberry Point to catch a magnificent sunset. Some of America's most beautiful National Parks are close, in all directions. Take a short drive to Zion Natl Park, Bryce Canyon Natl Park, or Cedar Breaks Natl Monument. Or venture a bit farther to Grand Staircase/Escalante Natl Monument, or to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, or even to Capital Reef Natl Park.
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2013
About the owner: We live near San Diego, California, but we love this area and will never tire of exploring it. And there is no end to the wonders available to explore! This photo of the owners was taken as we hiked in one of hundreds of slot canyons in Escalante-Grand Staircase National Monument, east of Bryce Canyon.
Why the Owner Chose Duck Creek Pines, Duck Creek Village, UT, USA:
We have visited and enjoyed many of our nation's parks and wilderness areas. We think Southern Utah is one of the most spectacular areas in the country, with an array of what are some of the most beautiful and accessible national parks and monuments. We have been coming to the area for several years, drawn by the beauty and wide variety of outdoor activities. Five years ago, we finally decided we needed to own a little piece of this incredible place. That was such a good purchase that in 2013 we bought this cabin, our second cabin in Duck Creek, with an eye to living here some day. With breathtaking natural wonders any way you drive, all within close proximity, you can't beat this location. Red Pines Lodge is in a great location, near the Village, and with easy access. It's a beautifully built cabin, has the amenities that make it comfortable, yet it has that rustic, warm feeling we enjoy in a cabin - and think others will too.

Sid Meier's Civilization World to conquer Facebook this summer
Real time strategy games are no stranger to Facebook--just look at, oh, every Kabam game out there--but the arguable god of RTS games, Civilization, is coming to Facebook this summer. Civilization creator Sid Meier made the offhand announcement in an interview with CNN. The game, titled Civilization World, has been in alpha testing since January of this year, and is biggest stretch for the franchise yet, according to Meier.
"What was really intriguing to us was being able to emphasize cooperative game play, which was something that really hadn't been a major part of 'Civilization' up to now," he said to CNN. "A lot of our design in 'Civ World' was taking advantage and using these opportunities for players to work together -- teamwork, communication, planning. Those are all the things that become really important to 'Civ World.'"
Meier continued to point out that some Civ World matches--comprising of up to 200 players, which do have an end--can last for up to 12 hours. That sounds like Civilization (and social games) alright. And because the game is being developed with Flash, Meier said that the game looks quite different from standard Civilization fare. Will the average social gamer be ready for gaming sessions lasting half a day? We're going to lean on the side of "absolutely," but reserve full judgment for when the game launches.
[Via Game Focus]

Last meter to the Internet of Things
Device networks can serve as a cost-effective extension in the last meter that connects industrial devices to the Internet of Things (IoT). Improve IP connectivity in the last meter from the industrial control system to field devices with IO-Link or HART (wired or wireless), to make today's plants more future-ready for industrial IoT.
A significant hurdle stands in the way of industrial operations attempting to realize the full benefits of the Internet of Things (IoT): How to connect billions of sensors, actuators, and other instrumentation now beyond the reach of the Internet Protocol (IP)? Two innovative technologies can support that vital connection to IoT, extending the increased operational data, enhancing productivity, and improving reliability that come with the IoT.
The last meter to the IoT is being bridged by IO-Link device communications for discrete applications [offered by Profibus & Profinet International (PI)] and HART and WirelessHART for process application communications [from the FieldComm Group, the merged Fieldbus Foundation HART Communication Foundation]. Both communication protocols work with networks based on EtherNet/IP [an Ethernet protocol network from ODVA] to connect sensors to control systems and business-level enterprise systems.
With instrument data available on EtherNet/IP, industrial operations can capture the real-time, actionable information they need to achieve operational efficiencies, increase productivity, and achieve the full benefits of the IoT.
IO-Link for discrete applications
In an evolving IoT world, companies are looking to get more intelligence from every device. But in discrete applications, such as packaging or automotive facilities that use large amounts of sensors, it is simply not cost-effective to replace existing instrumentation with IP-enabled devices. IO-Link was developed to create a cost-effective, last-meter connection between sensors and control systems for seamless data flow.
There have been past attempts to enable sensors on different communication protocols, such as Profibus [PI] or DeviceNet [also from ODVA], which required a different network to connect to the devices. However, many sensor users pushed back on those efforts because it doubled the number of products (networked and non-networked) to support on machines. It also involved learning a new protocol-even if only a subset of the total sensors on a given machine required more than on/off information, which was often the case.
IO-Link has become a suitable compromise for this dilemma by offering access to a wealth of information cost-effectively, while operating in conjunction with existing IP networks.
This access to device-level data means industrial operations don't have to delay their needs for smarter machines while waiting for all sensors to have IP accessibility. IO-Link offers a simple solution to increase connectivity throughout discrete applications. IO-Link communicates over the same three-wire conductors and can use the same configuration software currently used with EtherNet/IP networks, so getting the sensor data to IP is relatively seamless. All sensors installed on a machine can support IO-Link, and those connected to an IO-Link master interface will take advantage of the technology with diagnostics. This eliminates the need to learn a new protocol and limits the additional expenses to those sensors that are actively using the IO-Link technology.
To access the IO-Link functionality with technology already in the plant, manufacturers simply remove the discrete card and install an IO-Link card, the aforementioned IO-Link master. Many sensors featuring embedded IO-Link cost and act the same as the standard I/O sensors that manufacturers are already using until connected to a master. But interfacing these sensors with an IO-Link master "wakes up" the advanced functionality in the sensor, giving the user access to all the data and configuration capabilities IO-Link has to offer. This means users have the flexibility to install IO-Link sensors as standard IO today and activate IO-Link functionality later, as needed, without having to install costly new wiring or sensors. This makes IO-Link an excellent forward- and backward-compatible solution for sensor suppliers and users.
With or without diagnostics
The flexibility to interchange "standard" and IO-Link enabled sensors allows users to be selective. Not all machines or sensors need additional diagnostics. With the IO-Link master, users can choose which sensors to enable with IO-Link—gaining benefits without information overload. Although all machines can benefit from IO-Link, it's not needed throughout the machine. In fact, less than 20% of the sensors on a machine are typically at risk of physical damage—these are the areas where the additional diagnostics offered by IO-Link would be most beneficial.
With IO-Link, users have access to new information that flows from the devices through IP to higher levels of the system. This could include diagnostics about sensors that are broken or not performing at optimal levels. An example might be the monitoring of a photoelectric sensor located near a cutting operation where significant debris can accumulate on the sensor lens. Currently, most machine builders use compressed air to periodically blow debris off the sensors regardless of how dirty the sensor might be. The IO-Link sensor can inform the control system to initiate compressed air or send a maintenance person to clean the sensor only when necessary. This reduces machine downtime, since it optimizes predictive maintenance, and reduces compressed air use, and related expenses.
In another example, consider how proximity sensors are used to detect objects moving along a conveyor. If a machine gets out of alignment and shears off the head of a standard sensor, the controller no longer receives updates from the device that there are products being sensed. Yet the machine will continue to operate, and operators often have no way of knowing that critical data is not being collected until production is interrupted. But if that proximity sensor is IO-Link enabled, an alarm will trip and tell the control system that the sensor head has failed. The diagnostic is not a direct measurement, but it alerts the system that the data is no longer valid. Additionally, the damaged sensor could more easily be pinpointed for quick replacement.

|Irish Coffee: Why Atlantic Division matters to Celtics
|12.04.12 at 1:36 pm ET
The Celtics (9-8) are almost a quarter of a way through their season and rank fourth in the Atlantic Division.
The Knicks (12-4), Nets (11-5) and 76ers (10-7) all own better records. During the first four of their five consecutive Atlantic crowns, the Celtics owned no worse than a five-game lead through 20 games and seemingly had the division wrapped up by Christmas. Last year, the C's started 10-10, fell behind by four games and spent the season chasing the Sixers for a fifth straight title. And that was without either of the New York teams involved.
"When you look from top to bottom, it's a well-balanced division," said Paul Pierce. "So, each and every game is important. At the end of the day, our goal isn't to try to win the division; our goal is to win the championship. As far as the division is concerned, it's about as competitive as it's ever been since I've been a Boston Celtic."
Declaring they'd rather win an NBA title than the Atlantic Division sounds nice and all, but announcing their aim "isn't to try to win the division" is a mistake, since doing so gives them a better chance to reach that larger goal.
The Celtics need look no further than May as a prime example. If they hadn't caught the 76ers, a) the C's face the Bulls as the No. 7 seed on the road and likely lose in the first round if Derrick Rose doesn't tear his ACL; and/or b) they play Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals in Philadelphia, where they lost 2-of-3 playoff games.
Can the Celtics win a sixth straight Atlantic Division crown and set themselves up for another date with the Heat in the conference finals? Of course, but it's going to be a lot tougher to chase down three teams rather than one.
|Kevin Garnett finding out 'who's willing to fight'
|11.10.12 at 11:15 am ET
Doc Rivers said it: "We're struggling" without Kevin Garnett on the court.
Rajon Rondo said it: "It's chaos" when KG sits on the bench.
Perhaps more than his physical presence, the Celtics miss his voice on the defensive end. Forget Ronald Reagan, KG is The Great Communicator, and Paul Pierce said it: Without Garnett, "you just have to talk it out." So, as I'm sure your wife or girlfriend has told you a million times, it's all about communication and a little effort, and in these "grind days" of the early season Garnett is finding out who's willing to show the love.
"I try to teach the things that I know to some of the younger guys, if not anybody," said KG following the C's 100-94 loss to the 76ers that dropped their record to 2-3. "The things that I know have been over the course over a couple decades. I've understood actually how to play this game, understood my role at this point of my career. A lot of the things are just how hard I'm doing it. I talk very loud. I'm continuous with some of the things that I do. …
"But the things that I know are through experience. Trying to give that to a younger guy or somebody who hasn't played in the league that long is difficult at times, but I try to lead by example. Anybody that's looking to learn, I'm always open to teach. Nobody said this was going to be easy. Sometimes the darker days and your harder days are some of the most obvious days. It shows you who's with you, who's willing to fight, who's willing to be in the hole with you, so this is showing a lot."
Somewhere, the Celtics hope, guys like Jeff Green are listening, or this relationship just isn't going to work.
|Doc Rivers has had it with the lineup questions
|at 2:11 am ET
It wasn't exactly what you would've expected after his team lost to the Sixers, 106-100. Doc RIvers was answering questions about what went wrong and toward the end of his five minute session with reporters decided to go off on a tangent about something that was really bugging him.
After the 106-100 loss to the Sixers Friday, Rivers was reminded that before the game he mentioned he might tweak the lineup when the team heads to Milwaukee and Chicago for games Saturday and Monday nights.
"I don't know," Rivers said. "We'll see. We just finished this game so I'm not thinking about it [yet]. I will say this guys, this lineup stuff you talk about, it lasts for four minutes. Then we switch the lineup [with substitutions]. It's the whole game that matters. I could start everybody on our bench [Saturday in Milwaukee]. You think it's going to matter at the end of the game? Really, that's the way I think. Clearly, you guys don't think that's way but that's how I think."
Rivers started the first two games with a lineup of Rajon Rondo, Courtney Lee, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Brandon Bass. In the next three games, including Friday against the Sixers, he started Jared Sullinger in place of Bass.
"I don't think who starts matters," Rivers continued. "It's who plays well, who plays the most minutes. That's what we're focused on. I don't think a guy in our locker room gives a flying crap about who's starting.
"You have to find the right group. I think we have that. We're just not playing well. The thing that's hurting us right now is when Kevin is going off the floor. It happened again tonight. I thought in the second half it was better. Chris Wilcox gave us a lift. But right now, if y'all want to focus on something, that's what you should focus on, is what are we going to do when Kevin goes off the floor in the first half. Every time we do it, and we have to do it, we're struggling.
"And that's on me. I have to figure that out because he's not going to be on the floor. He's coming out and he's coming out at an exact time. We have to figure out something to make us click, and I think it's on both ends. I don't think it's just our defense going down. I think our offense really struggles when he goes out. We have to do something about it."

|Bad Jeff Green is a sad Jeff Green
|11.09.12 at 11:43 pm ET
After shooting just 1-of-5 from the field and scoring four points in 18 minutes off the bench during a 100-94 loss to the 76ers, Celtics forward Jeff Green gave a few curt responses during his postgame press conference, eventually offering a "mmm-hmm" to one final question before catching the team's flight to Milwaukee.
After scoring three points in the season opener, Green tallied 22 points over his next two games before netting just 10 points in 40 minutes over his past two — a drastic drop from his stellar preseason play. On Thursday, Danny Ainge expressed his disappointment in Green's adjustment, and Friday was coach Doc Rivers' turn.
"It's a dilemma, but he's going to be a good player for us this year," said Rivers. "And sooner rather than later, I'm hoping. We've just got to unlock him. Right now, he's just absolutely frustrated; you can see it in his play. But that's on all of us; it's not just on Jeff. Jeff's the easy target right now. Jeff's part of this team, just like everyone else, and we have to do a better job of getting him going. He's probably got to do a better job of getting himself going."
|Fast Break: Rajon Rondo's not enough vs. 76ers
|at 10:11 pm ET
Rajon Rondo may have continued his streak of games with double-digit assists, but the 76ers backcourt combined for 46 points, 18 assists and 15 rebounds, and the Celtics' defense let another playoff foe from last season reach the century mark in a 106-100 loss to their Atlantic Division rivals.
Jrue Holiday (21 points, 14 assists) and Evan Turner (25 points, 11 rebounds) torched the C's.
Rondo finished with 14 points and 20 assists while Paul Pierce (24 points), Kevin Garnett (19 points, 10 rebounds) and Jason Terry (13 points) all reached double figures, but the Celtics got little help from the bench beyond the guy who dubbed their reserves the best in basketball, as Jeff Green (1-5 FG) struggled once again.
A little help: Outside of Garnett and Lee, the Celtics started an atrocious 1-of-18 from the field, settling for far too many jump shots. Rondo (1-5), Pierce (0-5), Green (0-3) and Bass (0-3) all couldn't find the basket through most of the first half, and the Celtics fell behind by double digits for the third time in five games.
Wet paint: While the Celtics seemed content launching from mid-range, the Sixers attacked the rim. In the first half, Philly scored 30 points in the paint and added 18 fast break points — compared to 14 and two, respectively, for the C's — resulting in a 57-45 Sixers lead at the break. Evan Turner, in particular, victimized Pierce, scoring four of his six first-half buckets at the rim. In all, the Sixers outscored the C's 56-38 in the paint and 26-9 in transition.
Downtown daggers: Somehow, the Celtics failed to defend the basket and the 3-point line. In all, the 76ers shot 7-of-13 from beyond the arc, including a Jrue Holiday triple with five minutes to play that helped keep the surging C's at bay. In all, Boston opponents are shooting 34-of-84 from long-distance (40.5 3P%). Both the number of makes and attempts illustrates the inability of Celtics wings to close out on the perimeter.
First five: The Celtics actually started off strong defensively, holding the 76ers to a 1-of-9 shooting start and building leads of 6-0 and 8-3 on the back of Garnett, but as has been the case all season, things went south when KG took his five-minute sabbaticals. Sullinger/Bass and Bass/Wilcox combinations quickly turned five- and six-point leads into five- and six-point deficits with Garnett on the bench.
Making a point: In the third quarter, Rondo did everything he could to will his lackadaisical team back into the game. He had his hand in the C's first five buckets after the break (layup, jumper, assist, 1-2 FT, layup, assist). In the meantime, he notched his 10th assist, tying John Stockton for the NBA's third-longest streak of 10-plus assists (29 games) and recording his fifth straight double-double to start the season.
Terry time: Often referring to himself as a clutch player, Jason Terry put his words into actions. Twice he drew the Celtics within three points in the fourth quarter — on a 3-pointer that trimmed the lead to 83-80 and a 12-foot floater that cut the edge to 93-90 — as he reached double digits off the bench for the third time in four games. Perhaps more importantly, Rivers has given the all-important closer's role at shooting guard to Terry in the last two games, including all 12 minutes of the fourth quarter on Friday night.
|Doc Rivers has another unmistakable message for his team
|11.08.12 at 1:32 pm ET
This has been an early season of "message sending" for Doc Rivers.
After the first two games, the Celtics head coach talked about not trying to win games by playing one-on-one basketball.
On Monday, after barely surviving blowing a 16-point second-half lead in Washington Saturday night and watching the Wizards reserves dominate the Celtics second unit, the theme turned to the bench. "I'm not going to change the way I use [Kevin Garnett]. If our bench doesn't score, then we'll lose, simple."
Well, he got a much better effort from Chris Wilcox (albeit four minutes), Jason Terry and Brandon Bass off the bench on Wednesday night and it was the biggest reason why the Celtics won, 100-94 in overtime.
But what Rivers saw early on as his team fell behind and what he saw late in the fourth quarter were the two things he focused on afterward.
'Well, we won the game," Rivers said. "And right now that's the type of team we are. We're not playing great. It's good to win a game like that. We've won two like that. You knew coming into this night, no matter who you're playing, when you're play a team back-to-back games, you give them three days, you knew it'd be a tough game. But we made it so much harder. I thought we played for the first five minutes great, and then we went back to old habits. I thought our energy was terrible.
"I thought Chris Wilcox saved the game for us, singlehandedly, with his effort. And I thought it was obvious. He didn't do anything but played hard and played with great effort. And I thought that that leadership led everybody else into doing. Kevin, always, I always exclude him because he always plays the right way. But we've got to get more guys that play harder, better. I don't care about 'well,' you know, I don't care if we play 'well' or not, because that's just human. If you can make shots or not, it happens. But we just have to play with a better focus and we've got to run our schemes better.'
Next up for the 2-2 Celtics, the 2-2 Sixers, who are coming off a win in New Orleans Wednesday night and will be in town Friday night. What will Doc's message be? Stay tuned.
|Fast Break: 76ers sink Celtics in final preseason game
|10.21.12 at 10:02 pm ET
Dorell Wright (20 points) and Nick Young (15 points) led the 76ers in scoring, and no member of the Celtics scored more than 12 points. It was that kind of night at the Garden in the C's eighth and final preseason game — an 88-79 loss to Philadelphia.
The Celtics finished 3-5 during the preseason (2-4 against NBA teams), but more importantly emerged from those eight games with a healthy Rajon Rondo, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett entering their final week of training camp before facing the Heat on opening night.
Rondo (12 points, 10 assists) and Jeff Green (12 points, 10 rebounds) each notched a double-double, but the rest of the Celtics shot a combined 17-of-44 (38.6%). Here's what else went wrong (and a few things that went right, too).
Captain lost at sea: With all the attention that Rondo, Garnett and even Ray Allen garnered this past offseason, Pierce has been somewhat of a forgotten star entering this year — as much as the franchise fixture can be. Still, over his previous three games, he shot 58 percent and scored 63 points on 36 shots. Last night? Not so much. Pierce finished his night 3-for-12 from the field and missed all three of his 3-point attempts.
Sloppy second: Despite sticking to an eight-man rotation that included the usual suspects (except for Jason Terry), the Celtics got completely outplayed by an undermanned Sixers squad in the second quarter. Pierce, Green and Courtney Lee shot a combined 3-for-13, and the C's shot 33.3 percent as a group. Suddenly, a 22-21 Celtics lead transformed into a 51-41 halftime hole from which they couldn't escape.
Turnovers: For all that's changed from last Celtics season to this one, one aspect certainly hasn't. The turnover bug continues to plague these C's, as they racked up 21 turnovers that led to 19 76ers points. Pierce was the biggest culprit, committing five, but multiple giveaways by Green and Brandon Bass didn't help, either.
Pointed in the right direction: After the summer of Rondo, when he declared himself the game's best point guard, the C's floor general has emboldened the belief that he'll enjoy a career year — no small feat for a 26-year-old with four All-Defensive bids and three All-Star nods in addition to an All-NBA selection, an assist crown, a steals title and an NBA championship. Once again, he looked sharp, collecting 12 points, 10 assists and four rebounds against just one turnover.
Two's a crowd: With a wealth of options at his disposal — including Terry, Lee and eventually both Avery Bradley and Leandro Barbosa — Celtics coach Doc Rivers continued to try just about anything and everything, opting for Green as his starting shooting guard. As he's done in just about every role he's been asked to play this preseason, Green produced at the 2, totaling four points, five rebounds, two steals and a pair of blocks in the opening quarter. The logjam at the off-guard spot isn't such a bad problem for a coach to have.
Lee from 3: Shooting just 4-for-17 from 3-point range in his first seven preseason games, Lee had yet to knock down multiple triples in a single game. This from a career 39 percent 3-point shooter. In his final attempt before the regular season begins on Oct. 30, Lee connected on 2-of-3 long-balls. He also reached double-digit scoring (10 points) for the fifth time in eight games.
