    Social Distancing - What's Everyone Doing?

    I'm about to shut my computer off and head to my lake house and come home in a year.......I dont turkey hunt Nebraska but I got a feeling this is going to spread like wildfire across all states and I have been waiting to see this start happening. This is just the beginning.

    Social Distancing - What's Everyone Doing?

    Reminds me of my childhood. lol We were too broke to buy nails so I scavenged most of mine and pounded them straight and re-used them to build an elaborate tree-houses on my neighbors property in his prized winning cherry trees.... hey, in my defense, nobody told me I couldn't do that.....

    Prop Joe Diffie up beside the juke box...

    Sad to hear he passed away. I always loved his music. Strangely enough, I was humming one of his songs this past weekend while shooting fish. Enjoy.

    Cabin Build - Timeline with lots of pics.

    Not to be nosy but I am considering a build like this very soon. Can I ask you what you has in the cement work and the building shell and exterior trim for the ends? Excluding the framing and inside electrical and pluming. Strictly talking drying it in. less than $20,000?

    Social Distancing - What's Everyone Doing?

    82 crappie 3 catfish Saturday and Sunday combined and honestly dont know how many carp and gar the wife and I shot this weekend. But it was a lot, and most very very big. Didn't get a single picture so I guess you will have to take my word for it. I smell like a fish.

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

    We have a well beaten trail around our property and put in 10,000 steps daily (Whatever that equates to) and my wife has been working out for 2 hours/day. I mulched the flower beds yesterday evening with leftovers from her dads landscaping business. Mowed the grass and weed-eated. You could...

    Social Distancing - What's Everyone Doing?

    One summer when I was working in the middle of the Alaskan Tundra I watched an overly vigorous guy come up off of a T-post with the post driver. When he came down he caught hit finger between the driver and the top of the T-post. Cut it right off. Not gonna lie to you guys, I almost...

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

    I started to cast and powder-coat my own HV 3.5" 00 buckshot shells. I dont think there is an animal in North America could survive a direct hit to the face with that stuff. I have no doubt a brown bear is tough. But I dont think they could take that kind of a beating.. Never killed a brown or...

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

But it certainly would not be a pump shotgun as I have personally watched a lot...

    Opening The Can Of Worms...Coronavirus...

    TEAMWORK Reminds me of when I played baseball. I quickly realized at a young age that my team didn't suck, it was me that sucked at baseball. But I still played for a few years giving it my best shot. When I realized just how bad I truly was compared to the other kids I quit and then I...
