    2024 Garden!

    Freezing temps right now and extremely windy next couple of day. It'll be another 1.5 months before anything can go in the garden outside. Just built another greenhouse 16 x20. Just waiting on the polycarbonate panels to come in to finish up. I do have garlic poking up. Have 4 cucumbers up in...

    Tracked Atv

    We have tracks for Defender. They are terribly hard on the front end. They don't float as well as you would think. If you want to travel and make time they are not the way to go. The tracks seem to work better on ATV's than UTV's. But you need a lot of cc's to use them. They are fun somewhat but...

    2024 Garden!

    I was thinking along those lines too 48 hours ago. Seven new inches of snow in the last 24 hours. Temps going back to single digits of a night for a while. Just figure June is the time to plant here (outside) and don't try to push it. Had a killing frost last year in the middle of June. I'll...

    Grain bin questions?

    If you have a tractor with a front end bucket and it can reach good height put a chain on it and drop down through the top and then chain a tire to the chain and you can lift the whole granary up and move it to a trailer to be moved. We did one that way and moved it about 5 miles or so. Then you...

    Ankle Replacement Surgery

    Age 6 jumped off a rock landed with right foot bent under. Pulled all the ligaments. Then the doctor bent the foot up that was a killer. Spent 6 weeks in a cast. Wore the bottom out and they put more plaster on and made it heavier. That could have been the start of my ankle problems. Also...

    Ankle Replacement Surgery

    Wildebeest, you are right a fusion. They wanted to also put in a cadaver tendon to help with the fusion. Thanks but no thanks. I might have weak ankles but they are the only joint still working on their own. 2 knees, 1 hip and a right shoulder. Running out of joints to replace.

    Snow, plow, snow, plow, repeat

    belshawelk just be thankful you have a tractor and bucket. I have a 25hp Branson tractor with a small bucket. Yeah it gets old but beats the ol' shovel. We didn't get anything out this last go around. Just below temps. I'm quite happy about not having to go out and push snow around.

    The January Topic: KUIU vs Sitka!

    Prefer First Lite wool Kuiu prices Sitka durability Love all of it for the warmth and lightness. Doesn't matter which what or why long as I can get a good price on it.

    Ankle Replacement Surgery

    Be very careful about it. They may want to (can't think of the right word) but it doesn't allow your ankle to bend and you'll have a very hard time walking on uneven ground. I looked into it and didn't go through with it. Just a lot of P.T. to keep it strong. I don't think I'm bone on bone but I...

    DIY game bags

    My grandmother use to buy muslin and make the deer bags extra big and long. Could cover a whole deer carcass easy. Don't remember how it did with the elk. If making your own just for hanging buy muslin and have at it.

    2024 dreams and plans

    Staying home as always in my home state. Telling elk hunting goodbye. Hope for a first ever antelope tag and the usual mule deer (if there is any to hunt). Did not see one mule deer buck during the whole season this year. Tough season.
