Happy Birthday !

I am too lazy to make my own seasoning and use McCormicks Peppercorn - Garlic marinade mix . I cut the strips thin , put them in a quart or gallon baggie depending on the amount of meat . Zip the bag closed and squish the mix & meat in the bag . Place in the fridge and periodically squish / mix some more . I let it soak for a day and then place on trays. Rotate the trays and leave until it looks like it's done . The amount of time needed depends on the thickness of the meat and the saturation of the liquid . You need to experiment . I bought one of the Jerky Shooters a few years ago . It loos like a caulking gun . Works great with venison burger . You squeeze out strips and when they dry , they appear to be a solid piece . I have an inexpensive Mr Coffee Food Dehydrator that suits my needs but wasn't good enough for the wife . She bought a Excalibur Food Dehydrator for about $200 . I think it was a waste of money but "if mama ain't happy , ain't nobody gonna be happy" !

I saw that in the paper a bit ago . I was too slow to post it . Funny Cartoon !

You left out Road Construction Season !

Dom ....local radar for me wouldn't be the same for you . Why not just go to Accu Weather and get the info you want . You can look up by towns , etc ..

I stayed out of this as I don't own any auto loaders except for a 22 and a couple of pistols . I prefer the single shots and my deer rifle is a 25-06 . What is a follow up shot ?

This guy in the article is NUTS !

Jason - the picture I got of the yote was on County Line road just north of Atlantic Avenue . My friend bought the property and built a home there because there is is swamp there and he loves to duck hunt . It is adjacent to power lines also . I havn't shot a deer on that propery yet .

Great pics ! Gotta get rid of that Yote !

I have been out installing Real Estate signs this week and last week . The ground under the snow is hardly frozen . The snow acts as insulation .

In a few months people will be complaining about the heat ! It never ends !

Shadow Hill Maple Farm ---- Lakeside Road , Ontario , NY Visited the place Sunday afternoon . Tubing running all over the place . The tubes go carry the sap downhill to a pumphouse and the sap gets pumped to the tanks for processing when needed .

The article mentions Hancock New York http://joeforamerica.com/2015/03/islamic-no-go-zones-already-u-s-city-near-mirror-images-europes-nightmare/

Grow --- I went to school in Geneseo and we played against your York Central school . We were the Geneseo Blue Devils . I wonder if that offended the Devil . Hmmmmmmm !

That rates a two thumbs up !

Got on computer , checked e-mails and this site . Didn't post . Had breakfast with friends . Got rid of recycles and this is my 1st post today . Some of us have a life !

My newly married youngest son and wife are coming up Sunday and we are going to visit the Maple Farm here in Ontario . My wife and I visited the place last year with a couple of the grand kids .

That should give you at least a pint of syrup when you get it processed .........

I tend to look at the Camera reviews when they are available . It irks me to see several 5 , 4 , and 3 stars and then see a few 1 stars . What the heck ! Are some folks getting lemons or don't they know how to program / operate a trail cam . Phade seems the most knowledgeable person on the site when it comes to cameras so I would take his advice over any of the reviews .

I was looking at the Covert MP8 black out and considering it .

My Trail Cam Inventory Working cameras Moultrie I-35 ------------------------ 3 Primos Truth Cam CR's -----------3 Stealthcam STC 1430 IR --------- 1 Wildgame AXE 2 -------------------- 2 WildGame S1-3X ------------------- 1 I should have a D-338 camera but cannot locate it . StealthCam 35 mm ----------------- 1 havn't used it in years . Still has film in it . Non - working cameras Moultrie DGS I-40 ----------------- 1 Stealthcam STC-WD1 ------------ 1 Wild View AAGH 840 -------------- 2 Primos 40 Ultra --------------------- 1 Primos Blackout -------------------- 1 I gave a friend's kid a Wild View cam for a decoy after he had a camera stolen .

I don't know but I have seen Trail Cams listed on EBAY as non working -- for parts only .

I had called Primos a few months ago about the 1st camera that crapped out . The response I got was I could send it back and they would send a replacement higher priced camera for 20 percent off . I was already out about $100 at the time so I should spend another $100 and take a chance that the camera might last a week or two ........... No way ! The faulty cameras will make a couple of 3 3/4 X 5 1/4 inch targets !

The Truth Cam 35's work pretty good but don't have much of a flash range . It seems all of the trail cameras are manufactured in China . Even the Coverts . Are any trail cams manufactured in the States ?

Phade --- They are the small cameras . I had called Primos a few months ago and asked if there was a backup battery inside the camera and could the camera be repaired . I was told that they are not repairable . I have nothing to lose so I may take them apart and see if I can do anything with either one . I have been tempted to take some of these crap cameras to the woods with video cam and rifle and make a video for some of the Trail Cam Companies to show a use for Junk Cameras !
