I'd like to teach my kids how to build a campfire. Are they are places around the Peninsula that folks would recommend? Are half moon bay beaches for example open to bonfires? Any parks where this would be allowed? It would be tiny and during the day / early evening.
I understand that the regular tactics didn't work. I think some of his descriptions about how the ammo was relatively ineffective and the zombies were questionable but I'm willing to suspend disbelief somewhat. Still, why not just run them over?
These are basic tactics. If there are people in front of you and you are in an armored vehicle, you go around them or you go through them but you don't just sit there. Sure, I get it. A whole bunch of drivers might have been unwilling to drive through a crowd even of undead zombies, but even a single m113 can take down a zombie horde.
I'm looking to try new hobbies / activities and was hoping to get some ideas through reading magazines. Ideally, looking for a monthly variety magazine that will give me ideas for projects or activities I can try out that month. Anything from outdoor activities and sports to home improvement projects and crafts. Happy to subscribe to more than one magazine, and if there's a better way to get these ideas, also open to that. Heck, if there's a subreddit that might give me ideas, that would be great to.
Background: 48, live in the SF bay area, software engineer by trade although I'm not sure I want to do something job related in my hobbies. Athletic enough to go hiking and try hobbies lik
Background: had a very unhappy childhood and young adulthood. Abuse from parents, bullying plus some trauma from military service left me struggling with depression and anxiety plus some very poor communication skills. I managed to mask most of this and carry on with life as usual. Even got married in my early 30's. However, my spouse saw through my mask and decided she could not help. It was the right decision on her part by the way. The damage was mine to fix.
Anyway, post divorce went through a lot of therapy and soul searching and got on a good path towards a happier future. One of the things that changed was my opinion towards kids. My entire life, despite a very pushy mother,
My 8 year old just discovered Audible and absolutely loves it. I'm looking for book recommendations for her that have a good Audible version.
I got there a bit late so I missed the orientation but wow it was amazing. If anyone wants more information, let me know!

My daughter (8yo) and I read a lot of books together. We use these as a launching point to various conversations. For example, we're currently reading Dune and some of the scenes triggered a discussion about the value of human life, us vs. them mentality and the history of nobility.
Right now I'm trying to find books that would let us talk about emotional intelligence, that is, the ability for people to be aware of their own emotions and not be controlled by them. I'm hoping for a book where one of the main characters (Doesn't need to be the protagonist. Someone else with a lot of front row time would be fine) has issues controlling

She's 8 but she reads at a pretty high level. Finished LOTR and a few Heinlein YA novels and currently reading Dune (yes, I'm
Yah, it's not the fairy tale ending everyone was hoping for but to me that was part of the charm. Ted didn't get his happily ever after because that's a thing that happens only in stories. Barney didn't get to stay married to Robyn because relationships built on lies and grand gestures also only work in movies. Plus the whole last season was highly entertaining.
It was funny, there were bitter sweet moments and I enjoyed the send off for some of my favorite characters.
