    Someone told me a story

    Someone close to me came to visit last week. He is going through a divorce and some other nasty legal stuff, and he just wanted to talk. He told me he was going to lease, with option to buy, a house on twenty acres that was basically a private museum once owned by Erro Flinn, now owned by his...

    Wild horse brigade

    I was watching the local news this morning and a story came on about some college students studying the local wild horses to see if they could be used to help prevent wildfires. They felt that wild horses could be planted in wilderness areas to eat fuels. I reacted with "they must be crazy, in...

    Pickle Ball

    Pickle Ball is a fairly new game and I have nothing against it. If not for the fact that my knees no longer allow for much lateral movement, I am sure I would enjoy playing it. But right now, there is a Pickle Ball tournament on ESPN. OK maybe, but I just saw four adult commentators sitting...

    FIRE!

    I live in town right next to the city limits. Right next to us is 60 acres of county owned land we refer to as "The Feilds" It is nothing but tall grass, brush and weeds. The county tells private landowners to keep that sort of stuff mowed down because of the fire danger but says it is too...

    Nostalgia aint worth a sh*t Tom.

    I learned that the hard way. They say that you can never go back but unfortunately that isn’t always the case. I was a young man working my second summer for the BLM on a three-man survey crew. The Head man on the crew was Gordy. Gordy had been working for over 30 years for the BLM Medford...

My oldest daughter, who is in her 40s got it and came over to visit. She told me she was past the stage where she was contagious. I think she was...

Since my house burned down over two years ago, along with 3000 others, federal, state and county governments, along with various charities have been throwing money at me...

    Noticed some changes

    I was looking at the regs. for 2023 and noticed a few changes. First, the starting date for all the seasons seems to have been bump up a week. Not sure how I feel about that. Down here in the SW part of the state during archery season, they made the Powers unit a traditional archery only unit. I...

    abstract expressionist art

    I have always liked expressionist art but not so much abstract expressionism. But when I saw this watercolor entitled "Wall Tent In A Storm" by Isolde Clark, it really resonated with me. Did I mention, Isolde is my 4-year-old granddaughter?

    I survived a vicious animal attack

    I went a short hunting trip, at least I call it hunting, it's mostly just camping. I got there Sunday afternoon, but my partner wasn't going to show up until Monday.

    Spit takes

    What are some of the lines you have heard or read that have cause one of those unfortunate uncontrollable blasts just as you took a drink right at the wrong moment? We had been working on a hot day in early July when we stopped in at a small-town Mom and Pop store for something cold to drink on...

    Granny

    I see this old gal 4 or 5 times a week on my morning walk. She may be a little sway backed and gray in the face but there is just something sexy about a double throat patch.
