I usually only try for the anterless; usually have more of them. Down here the spread has to be 13"; P2P. for a Buck. Not to make a Pun; I have been told that "Horn Soup" tastes bland.

Not today, only heard 2 . Usually most up here sit opening weekend. I prefer to casually walk around in areas I think look good. I bet tomorrow there are a few more, as some have to Monday.

I remember from last year you like to still hunt. I'm a stter. Find out where they're running and wait, wait, wait...

Not hunting this year tho. Talked to a couple buds and they're not seeing anything or much for shots. Wife took the dogs 4 a walk and didnt hear a shot. I know N Mn had a tough season..

No luck so far. But I'm not going to sit outside and wait on them. Same thing happened to me. was given a new Service Van.First day out;was running through the Piney Woods; made a curve; a fawn ran across the road. One second later the mother ran in front of me. (Hit her at 50+). Airbag;fur;glass everywhere. Had to roll the window down to get out. Van had less than 100 miles on it.

Almost hit a bear tonite. I would have thought they would be hibernating already, been cold enough for awhile..

The Admiral bought me a new Carhart jump Suit with a hoodie. Stiff as a board! Got to figure out a fast break in.

When I was 16 I would do anything for gas money. I cant find anyone who will stack wood. Even went as high as $15/rick $100minimum. What is it with the kids today...I keep thinking I wish I had made some but maybe not as they dont seem to have the same pride and work ethic as we did... 20181120_091410-1512x2016.jpg

If you were closer; I know 2 boys (Neighbor kids) who would stack it. They love to collect $20 dollar bills.

So, today I had to stop splitting wood and take the dog to the vet.

You see, Friday night during "safety meeting" the admiral and her girl friend detected a lump on the dogs neck/throat. I could not feel it but said I did because it is the path of least resistance. So off to the vet we go....

I was told to explain the other symptoms that this lazy 10 year old golden retriever exhibited. I explained that he sleeps a lot, that he's less active, that he doesn't quite act right you know, kinda lazy and slow.

Well, $191 dollars later the dog has been diagnosed.

It turns out that he has, wait for it,....



an ADAMS APPLE!!!!!

+1 on the good news. But it being 70; he probably needs to slow down. I'm 70+; he probably moves faster than me!

Ours has settled in. Spoiled; hates L/M; Ducks; strangers so far.

Well I bought a new bike from Wally World to put in the camper and maybe try and get a little excersize . The wife also got one with a covered doggie wagon to pull around .. So I rode the bike and the. Seat needed some adjustment .. Tilted way far down in the front . Don’t ask me why but I unclamped the seat post before I loosened up the clamp holding the seat on ...
You guessed it ! Post slid down the frame and got wedged at the bottom ... :mad:
Turned it upside down ..Shook it beat on it and everything else to try and un lodge it .. Finally after an hour or so and many home made tools I got it unstuck ..:facepalm:
Lesson learned !! :lol:
