    Rot Roh!

    This morning I was skinning out the skull cap from a little whitetail I took last week. One of the grands thought a hatrack would be cool for his bedroom. All went well until I got in a hurry. End result I snapped the skull cap between the antlers. Is there any glue/epoxy that works on bone...

    Olympic Natl Park Goats

    Just back from a fall trip to ONP and RNP for a couple of weeks and saw this article in ONP Bugler Magazine about the goat relocation that has been ongoing. https://www.nps.gov/olym/learn/news/summer-2019-bugler-newspaper.htm

    Pellet Grill/Smoker

    I read all the threads about pellet grills, but most were from 2017-2018. Before I *pull the trigger*, has anybody purchased one lately? Just wondering if any upgrades for 2019 over previous years and any of the brands that really stand out over the last couple of years.

    Big Fin

    It is true what others have said about Randy being unassuming and just an all around nice guy. He just happened to be the first person I saw at Rende so was good to meet him in person and chat a little. He did give me a bad time about wearing one of Moosies hats- "How much did he pay you to wear...

    Proud Pop Pop

    Sorry, but not hunting related, This is the kid who is one of 250 accepted to the USC Film School for the upcoming school year. I couldn't afford the bribe so he had to do it on his own. We butt heads on so many issues, but have learned to listen to each other and not judge. Today he was awarded...

    Update to: A Prayer if You Could

    You all must know the *Big Guy* well. BIL was moved out of ICU yesterday and able to have a good visit with him. Aside from headaches that almost put him down and being very tired it appears he is on the mend. Still a long road to hoe, but he says he is up to it and waiting to get back up to his...

    A Prayer If You Could

    Just word that my BIL (54 years old) and shooting buddy is in ICU with a brain aneurysm. He was at their off-grid cabin over the weekend. Chopping wood and was having headaches, would sit down until he felt better and kept going. Finally started feeling sick and able to call his wife to let her...

    Rinse Your Meat?

    Was talking to a guy about hunting last night and he questioned me about rinsing game with creek water. He hauls 10 gal of water just to rinse his meat with (I am talking about quarters, etc). In the area we grew up hunting we never gave any thought about the creek water and neither did the...

    Bugle Magazine

    In between bed and my favorite chair (with the latest and greatest crud) I started in on the Bugle that arrived today. I really enjoyed the frank article by none other than our own Ben Long. Was some food for thought right there. Way to go Ben!

    Damn Proud of This One!

    Grace started the week in the House and ended the week in the Senate where she received a round of applause AND a standing ovation after Senator Lori Den Hartog introduced Grace and her good works at Interfaith Sanctuary and with the homeless community.

    Prayers Needed

    If you are so inclined... Good friend and hunting buddy didn't show up to hold court (a judge) last Thursday morning. A welfare check showed that he had suffered a brain aneurysm sometime during the night. Does not look good going forward even if he makes it. Please pray for his kids to have...

    Fire Extinguishers

    Major wake-up call for me. I had three that were on the Kidde recall. One each in both vehicles and one in our travel trailer. Three new ones to arrive within 14 days.

    The Rest of the Story to A Week in the Life

    Disclaimer as to photos- Some of you may have issues in that we never pose animals for photo ops. It is just something we never do. Day 1 was spent setting up camp, cutting firewood and scouting seeing only does and cows. Day 2 more does and a couple more cows along with a little club bull. Day...

    Moose Monday

    Tis going to be a sad state of affairs when we leave next Monday to go get my brother's moose tag filled. I just returned from shy of three weeks in the Canadian Rockies with some kind of crud. Doc this morning, nebulizer treatment, two rx, lung xray and follow up for this Friday. The *shooter*...
