    Turkey Troubles

    I just talked to an old friend, and he was griping about having to chase all the turkeys off his deck every morning and bitching about the mess they make of his yard. I guess one man's problem is another man's dream.

    10 ply tires

    They had us running Mastercraft at work for a long time. I'll swear they lose a 1/8" of tread just sitting in the parking lot overnight. I got so sick of seeing that word "Mastercraft" right in front of my face all the time as I tried to wrestle lug nuts off wheels in the pouring rain, I just...

    Prospectors. Let’s see that gold!!

    Never did any prospecting myself but I have a friend whose grandfather owned a claim. For most of the time he was collecting gold, you had to sell it to the government which pissed him off, so he never sold an ounce. He also rarely worked his own claim. He would go up and down all the streams in...

    Restoring a riparian zone

    You are right about the scorn for perceived stupidity in the recovery efforts. I should be ashamed. I guess you could say it is kind of an inside joke that nobody except maybe @Lassio Cravensworth, or whatever he's calling himself, would get. You see, this riparian zone is in fact a greenway...

    Dire Wolf Returns

    It may get a lot worse soon. I have an 11-year-old grandson who is the world's greatest authority on everything dinosaur. Just ask him he'll tell you. Those paleontologists with their silly little PHDs aren't even fit to carry his lunch pail. He has informed me that he is going to build a real...

    What won't you hunt?

    Coyote. I've always had a special place in my heart for those little dogs.

    Restoring a riparian zone

    Right after the fire there was nothing but dead trees and ash left. It looked like there would never be life there again. As of last fall the cottonwoods were 15' to 20' tall. The willows 10' to 15' and all the shrubs, forbs and grasses fully recovered. Then in that 1/4 mile stretch that they...

    Restoring a riparian zone

    This is my whole point. To my untrained eye the efforts to fix the fire damage are causing far more damage than the fire damage itself. And the areas left untouched are recovering extremely rapidly all on their own. Another case of loving nature to death.

    Restoring a riparian zone

    There was another similar project 15 years ago. Those flags are faded and rotting but they are still there. You or I throw a gum wrapper on the ground and it's a $500 fine. Go figure?

    Restoring a riparian zone

    The absolute worst thing would be to do nothing and hope Mother Nature might fix things. Then all you will have in 4 1/2 years is:
