Retiring in the Pacific Northwest
Willamette is Kalapuya for "Valley of the sick" It's the grass seed capital of the world. If you have hay fever, you'll hate life May through August. Other than that, it's beautiful. Banana belt temps with only 30 more days of rain a year than San Francisco. And you forgot the Umpqua River. 2nd...- Sam Colt

Thoughts on the best 1911 / 2011 in 10mm

Did my dog get bit by a copperhead?
We did the first time. They said most bites are dry, but even if it’s a live bite, unless the copperhead hits a major blood vessel it’s usually just a waiting game. The rattlers and cottonmouths are a very different matter. Benadryl doesn’t help the symptoms; it’s just to calm her.- Sam Colt

Did my dog get bit by a copperhead?

The swelling drops to her neck the next day and then disappears. So far...- Sam Colt

Planning my first Texas hog hunt - any input is appreciated....
Hogs are predominantly nocturnal feeders in areas with hunting pressure. Sunrise and sunset are the best time to catch them at feeders without lights. With lights, it’s game on.- Sam Colt
