Had a couple hours to kill while on a family camping trip near Bath. Found a local "guide" to show me around..... and it was a wonderful way to spend the morning. We did not get skunked. Thanks again !!! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I can't thank you guys enough. We heard we might get another call later this week. I wrote telling her to be on the lookout for extra mail coming her way. I did receive a letter from her saying she was sorry she got so emotional on the call but felt it was therapeutic and needed to get it out! We have an official Alpha Company West Point page that a lot of photos get posted to. Each company has a photographer. Here is a few of her with huge smiles on her face! Maybe she got a few letters from you guys! Seems she is doing much better!!!

Had a day so headed over to friends and got stand well under way..just door , roof amd stairs to do now.. hes gonna install windows and put on batton boards..

Tonight's visitors ....

Ok...things are happening! Those tomatoes are again a "black" and are supposed to look that way...I guess. They feel ripe and taste good- I guess I rather the traditional RED! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I rolled my standing winter rye in early June and planted my pumpkins in it. It kept the weeds down. I slung some Antler King Slam Dunk into the dead rye and that came in nice also.

Planted a small plot of Antler King Honey Hole (brassica) last Sunday into standing buckwheat and rolled it. Got rain that night and it was coming up in 4 days.

Went to New Paltz today. She said it is maybe number 5 on her list. Just wasn’t to impressed with their communication department. She just felt uncomfortable the entire time. She loved the area and the scenery but she didn’t even want to stay and eat. Just wanted to get back home so she could go to work tonight. oswego set the bar very high for her expectations of what she wants from a college and the surrounding area.

Sure , got several hundred acres of beans , and several hundred of corn in . A few hundred more of a Timothy , clover and the like . Well not me , the farmer, that’s even better . I actually collect rent from him planting it !

Who's Marion?

Shot my 300 Blackout today , funny part was as I was kneeing loading mags a really wide buck stepped into the beans 40 yards from me . A bit low but I’m ok with this , the red dot is real nice , my back up iron sights are a bit hard to see . Next time I’ll shoot through the sight without the dot on, see what just centering the target does .

Every year this object appears , the local deer know , a Godlike , Hunter , Warrior will soon follow as soon as the Fall moon raises , and smell of Irish Spring permeates the woods . To appease this Great Hunter , they’ll leave bits of bones , feathers and other sacred objects of the woods, at its base , in hopes that they’ll not be this year’s sacrifice .

Something tells me were not on the same topic, lol.

This is friends property . The old stand next to it was built in 2008.. he decided to replace it with this. At my place they only go in proven funnel or feed areas usually 10 years or more of deer knowledge at spot. I do not put in ground as i can simply brace and lift with forks on tractor. I have only.moved 1 ..2x now. 2x due to a new neighbor building near it and wouldnt be legal to hunt out of. And 2nd time was to get it into a better area that was more commonly hunted. Now i will do habitat work to keep deer in box blind areas but usually just to keep them closer to it as mine tend to be funnel / travel areas.

Stairs , door and tin roof onn. Took about 10 hours total and he has to finish the battonboards and windows

Tin type newspaper photo.. im sure it was "enhanced " as photo is over 100 years old

Same here except for that one time years ago.

Happy birthday jerk!!

Oh him? No kidding.........covid? Yikes, that is NOT good. I hope he has as good a birthday as possible; that can be brutal for weak individuals. Best wishes Marty.

yup the 1st

By by old camper. My friend, who traded me his wife’s old Durango for it, just pulled out with it:

Ive only seen mature bucks together in early spring and then its debatable if they are together or only using same food source. I do see a young buck hang with a mature buck in summer

I found the one i got last year 6 1/2yrs old and had photos for the 3 yrs prior was never in a group but normally had one smaller buck with him all the time at 4 1/2 and 5 1/2 it was the same one at 6 1/2 it was a little 4pt im guessing his buddy from the prior yrs got shot our out grew his welcome... but he was solo come mid october,,,,, his buddy was normally near by but not together like summer early fall

I'm going to a slightly earlier pick and allow them to fully ripen indoors. Making a dent in the critters but they are ferocious! These are a "black" tomato variety. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How long til October?

And we get pics of a beaver......c'mon man. Damn fine bow by the way! Did it give you some jumps? Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk

I don't usually pull the card after only week, but I wanted to see the effect of the trim. They are absolutely hammering the chicory since I trimmed it. Every single night a hundred pics. Mostly bucks of all stripes. A couple of doe, but I get the feeling the doe are smaller in number because they're being territorial right now with the fawns being so small. Once the bush hog gets back from the welder I'll trim the rest of it in stages. Do another 1/3 of it, wait 2 weeks, do the last 1/3 of it.

He lives!

all is quiet here.....anyone else having any action ?

Well this is not a Deer but a neighbor close by heard noise outside and went and lo and behold .... this morning !
