    If your stuck at home what are you and your families doing to pass the time?

    Spring is a busy time for us. We usually do our chores (She has chickens and I working on our irrigation system) in the morning. We have been playing Cribbage in the afternoon (with a glass or 2 of wine). My wife has also dusted off her files and is trying to finish a book she is writing. I am...

    Los Angeles Couty Sheriff close gun stores

    The last paragraph explains exactly where his order actually is in effect, only in areas he controls. Incorporated cities that have their own police force are not covered by this. A friend of mine in California whose son manages a large hunting, fishing and gun shop told me they had no inventory...

    I also have had Shingles...not fun. Hurt like hell. I get shots for shingles, pneumonia and now the flu. Can't be too careful, especially the older you get and your immune system is not as great as it once was.

    I remember all the other flus. During my annual physical, my Dr said "you havn't had your flu shot. I'll give it to you". I said I have NEVER had a flu shot and I have never had the flu, why should I have one now? The problem is I'm 78 years old ! I finally relented and had the shot. If I was 10...

    pump action 12 ga versus 45-70 lever rifle for alaskan bear defense

    My load would OO buck backed up with slugs. I shot a 300# hog in the shoulders with a slug.....went all the way thru, definitely didn't flatten like a pancake! They are not pure lead and lots harder than pure lead.

    I thought the same too, but have changed my mind. The number of people coming down and dying from it in New York alone is enough for me to know that this is real! The big cities with concentrations of millions of people are perfect locations for this type of virus to breed and be spread. My...

    Screwed Up in Wyoming Last Years Draw

    I must have not understood JimP's post. I understood that you couldn't apply for a point if you drew your first choice, that is still true. I called Wyo F & G and that is also what they told me.

    Screwed Up in Wyoming Last Years Draw

    Is everyone saying last year I could have bought a point when I was successful in drawing a tag? That is a big change for sure. I missed that.

    What a load of crap! Does this mean that if I have a favorite place to snowmobile, cross country ski or hike and I usually park at a trail head next to a state/county road, I can't now. Colorado has not ordered everybody to stay inside or banned outside travel, so how can this county sheriff...

    Demographics of Eastmans Hunting Forum

    When I retired I took all my 401k, company stock and stock market stuff and converted it to muni bonds and CD's.If stuff happened like now and I lost a bunch, I could never earn it back. Luckily I didn't need it to generate income for me to live off of.
