• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Welp...it was a bit warmer and more humid than I expected, with blue bird skies and no chance of rain, but our little trio had a good time and a nice lunch stop at BLTs in Big Bear. The labor day mob hadn't descended on the mountain just yet, so the trails and roads weren't clogged up with tourists and happy campers. Lawrence, Lillie and I did about 80 miles, and played in the river a little to cool off, on our way back to Heart Bar. Another successful dual sport ride on the books.

Looks like it was a fun day. As a fellow Southern Californian, do you mind sharing the forest roads we could take to get to the dammed river and pond?

The pond is at a privately owned nature reserve called Bluff Lake, and it is off 2N10. The river is the Santa Ana river on 1N45, just off the 38 highway.
