Ah, the sun is a’shining on you Jim. Nice pics and a great time of life with little ones like that. Enjoy every minute. Ever see a Great White out there in your kayak? I hear a few of you down under get chomped on every year?

Turkey or not, you just had a successful season with that find. Congrats! Nice pic too.

I don’t have many knives because I generally don’t deal with more than one of anything too well. Go figure? This I bought in the mid ’90’s. My high water mark for knives. I just look at it now and then as I’m too sentimental toward my other two. This was made by an old ‘gent, in every sense of the word, Billy Watson from Deatsville, Alabama.

Mike – I never had much patience for learning how to upload pics and walked off plenty for better things to do. It’s easier done than said is all I can say. Once you get it it’s as easy as eating cherry pie.

Man, I’d go on a date with some of those beauties. Here’s one of about two I’ve used since my late teens. It was a big purchase back when I had even less common cents than I do now. I get attached to things like this and use them forever.

Yup. My wife said quit with the wannabe homo sapiens thing and get real. Yes, I’ve struggled for years on coming out, but, it’s true, I am a Neanderthal man:lol:

Upscale cave with closets uh? Cool.

You could always check out one of the Flintstones ‘toons:D Hope your bathroom came out good. I have to do that too before winter totally calls it quits.

in reply to: cant hardly take it!! #59300

Yes, welcome to the forum also! You are not alone. A part of my work has had me out in the field all winter and I utterly can’t stand the thought of going outside, putting boots and all that crap on anymore, looking at single digit temps in the a.m.’s, etc., etc. Most of us “up here” need a change of pace real bad or we’ll be declared a psychological disaster area:lol:

Yes, welcome back Steve. Can’t imagine how awful that must have been.

Good for you for getting up and shooting. Outside of work I have not wanted to stick my head outside all winter.

Without the fence that looks like a Mars rover pic. I’m sorry it’s that bad. Assuming you have a well are you worried?

Ralph – I lost the Case I’ve been carrying for over 40 years a couple summers ago. I tore the house up and my wife eventually found it. It amazes me how I can get so attached to stuff (usually well broken in over decades…). I think things like that anchor me to what I consider simpler times. Am debating to put a .54 round ball right thru my smart phone and go back to a dumb phone and save a few $’s too. It is a time waster of Biblical proportion in my hands.

Good Lord. Like the stuff they gave me to stop kidney stone pain, Dave’s’ stuff is like an injection of impassioned reason straight to the brain. Well done!

Where do you set trail cams out in that dry gulch country? I know in the East I’d look over Beech ridges, any old apple trees, standing corn, etc. What they eat out there:?:
