Our woods are absolutely filled with them, up to 12" diameter and 50 feet long or more, but this one came from my backyard.- Islander

What's on the smoker today?
Sorry, no photos. Couple racks of pork ribs in the Smokin-it electric. Huge ancient grape vine is the perfect wood for pork.- Islander

Scope option for a truck gun
They come up used on Rokslide.com periodically. There's a 10X on there now for $250. I've actually killed my last two deer with a SWFA 10X, fixed. It's decent, but a 6X is better all around scope for truck use. -
Scope option for a truck gun

My house was broken into when I was a young newlywed. Couldn't find my wife, and no note that she'd gone out (no cell phones in those days). Behind the house was a run down trailer park. I went door to door with my pistol screaming at each tenant that they better tell me who kidnapped my wife...- Islander

Hunting Solo by choice or circumstance
I'm my favorite person to hunt with. Solitude. Reflection. I love going into stealth killer zen mode, with the pure concentration on getting that food. I’ve got Native roots, and when I’m hunting, I feel something ancient stir inside me (real or not} — a connection to those who came before...- Islander
