  1. Where do you live again? I’m also a hostage to mid Hudson eagerly waiting for a competitor to free us from these ridiculous prices. I haven’t heard about fiber coming to the area so that’s cool. I
  2. I guess this person should of considered learning how to throw first.... Person appears to throw phone at stage during Trump’s speech to NRA https://www.foxnews.com/politics/person-throws-phone-at-stage-during-trumps-speech-to-nra Explore the Fox News apps that are right for you at http://www.foxnews.com/apps-products/index.html. Another embarrassing fail for the left[emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]
  3. Don’t know if the fence thing is a requirement or not, but there’s a few farms around me and they are all fenced. Maybe it’s a county thing? New farms are popping up all over in my area that’s for sure.
  4. I agree!! I’ll be recommending them for anyone with kids just starting out wanting to try it before plunking down money on a bow setup.
  5. Nice! I did hear about the summer class a little while ago. If he does it I’ll have my boy there. I’m not a member yet, but will be joining soon. I’m thinking of getting into some league shooting again, which would be my reason for joining up down there. That and everyone down there seems like great people and really treated my boys great during the classes.
  6. No kidding! Small world! I wasn’t there today as I’m stuck at work but my wife took the boys there today. We were in the noon class, what about you?
  7. The Cruzer in action this morning at the last winter class. Kids loved the outside 3-D shoot!
  8. I got my 6 yr old in a winter archery class this year. After determining he was right handed and not left, and got a few classes under his belt I went and bought him a Bear Cruzer Lite My bow shop owner suggested this bow and so far seems to be a nice one. Draw weight is 5-45 pounds so it can grow with your kid for many years. They have a ton of colors and camo risers to choose from as well. I paid a little over $400 all setup with a half dozen arrows and release. Not a bad price I didn’t think for a bow that can grow with my boy for awhile.
  9. No complaints at all in the rain. You can absolutely tell you can’t hammer it in a hard corner at Mach 3 and feel as planted as a street tire but it’s a MT so you can’t expect top end pavement performance. I don’t really drive that fast so I don’t notice poor road manners on my everyday driving. I’m doing about 80-100 miles a day so I’m getting good seat time on them. The plentiful reviews and price is what really sold me on these tires. I figured for the price I had to try them at least once.
  10. I can do that now. I’ve got almost 10k on them now so far. I had these put on back in January before one of the snow storms we got. So far so good. They are a little noisy but that’s to be expected with such aggressive tread. Other than that no complaints. I will say that they ride much better than the Toyo MTs I had on this truck a few years ago. These new tires are the same size as the toyos but they are a lot lighter per tire which results in a better ride.
  11. I gave these tires a try this go around. They are cheap, like under $700 installed cheap. I figure if they last me 30k that’s more than good enough. The last 3 sets of tires I’ve used haven’t made it more than 45k at $1200-1400. And those were all terrains. If I can get 25-30k out of a meaty mud terrain that costs half as much, I’ll be happy. Yes they are loud, but that’s what the radio is for. They ride good for mud terrain, and have awesome traction in the snow, mud and pavement. I’d rather not get stuck, because when I do it’s always in a terrible spot. So I’d rather run mud terrains than worry about getting stuck so much. Tires like these aren’t for everyone though. If I never went off road I’d stick with all terrains but I can never resist a good mud road[emoji1787]
  12. Another prime example of how state governments continue to blunder their way through legalization. Stuff like this is what will keep the black market propped up even after legalization. Until weed is treated the same as booze, people are going to continue using their current dealers to avoid being ID’ed or paying the tax. If NY allows you to grow your own, this whole situation will be easy to get around. Just grow your own right at home and show ID to no one.
  13. I’ve seen the same thing before. But I don’t think the old definition of “service dog” applies anymore. With the changing of times you can now have a “service dog” for all sorts of issues like PTSD, anxiety, depression and the list goes on and on. And it doesn’t need to be just dogs anymore, all sorts of animals being used as “service animals” now. I can’t find the article now, but there was just a guy in the news not too long ago for trying to apply for a permit or whatever to have a “service tortoise”. Seriously, the guy has this big ass tortoise and wants to bring it all around with him.
  14. FIL bought us a 4 burner Charbroil commercial series grill like 7 years ago. Still works good and I haven’t replaced anything on it. Sits outside all year long with no cover as well. I’m actually surprised at how well this grill has held up to sitting outside all year. But.....I have my eyes set on a pellet grill/smoker. Lowe’s has some nice looking ones in this year. This is the one I think I’m gonna go pick up. Especially now that it’s saying it’s on 50% off clearance! 820-sq in Two-tone copper and black high temperature powder coat Pellet Grill https://www.lowes.com/pd/820-sq-in-Two-tone-copper-and-black-high-temperature-powder-coat-Pellet-Grill/1000266681
  15. Ya there’s a bunch of different sellers selling them in different ways. Either per battery or by the lot of 30, 50,80,100, etc. the prices vary up and down a little bit. Last time I bought some I just waited until I saw one drop down to $78 and I ordered it. Can’t beat it for the price.
  16. eBay. 100 count lithium energizers for $78-84 depending on the day.
  17. My old man went on a fly in caribou hunt back in ‘96 . He shot a really nice bull about midway through the trip. When he and his guide got over to the bull he just shot, they found a small cow right behind his bull laying dead as well. He nor his guide ever saw the cow behind the bull. Luckily, the guide had some extra cow tags so he put one on the cow. Not what he was intending to do, but it makes for a cool story!
  18. I got lucky, our son was born on V day so I get off the hook on getting her anything. We agreed when he was born that it’s his birthday and we will only focus on making it a special day for him. My good luck also spread to her birthday. Our second son was born on her birthday. So we just focus on him and I’m off the hook for her bday lol.
  19. Looks like drainage ditches are not eligible.
  20. Lol your definitely right about everything being a swamp this summer. It was terrible here. I had full intentions on moving this coop all over the place. But once I had it in the yard and was working on training the new flock to their new home the skies opened up and never stopped. Went to try moving it once and sank the tractor in the yard making a total mess. Lol. New coop builds are fun! I think that’s partially my reason for wanting to sell this one. Just to fund my meat bird coop ideas I have floating around in my head haha. Hope you enjoy the build as much as I do! Ya I’m looking forward to getting a few piggies. Will be a fun new adventure with the kids. Once the snow melts and we dry up a bit I’ll be starting to clear out a spot for them. Everyone in my house loves bacon, so I’d love to supply us with fresh home grown pork instead of the crap you get at the store.
  21. Yep we are moving over towards more meat birds. Just a change of direction, and it requires a different type of coop so I figured I’d offload this one to make room. That and the wife is saying she wants piglets this spring[emoji849]. This summers rain made it difficult to move around with all the mud. If I had a drier piece of land I’d probably keep it.
  22. Well he flat out said hes not going to tax the rich to compensate for the loss, which I agree is a stupid plan, but now that’s opening the door for him to tax the rest of us a little more. He made no mention that raising taxes on the middle and lower classes would be out of the question or that it was a bad idea. Ray Charles can see where this is headed....
  23. It is spreading, but it’s going to take a lot longer for the blue death wave to wash over some of the midwestern states. South Dakota just legalized concealed carry without a permit. That’s a pretty big step in a positive, and different direction than NY is headed. And taxes, there’s really not many places left you can go that would cost you anymore in property taxes. My parents left NY 2 years ago, at that time their 18 acres on the edge of Delmar cost them 14k a year. And that’s not even as bad as some others have it here. Our lake house on the sacandaga was costing them another 12k a year. Our 3000 sq ft house with 3 garages and 6 acres in Kansas cost them $580 a year in taxes. That’s a massive difference. Their North Carolina house was also well under a grand a year. Property taxes alone is what keeps me from buying more land here or building the bigger house my family wants and will need in the coming years.
  24. No doubt the Dems are going to try and put NY on the map as a leader in gun control. Every stupid idea they can dream up they will attempt to impose on us in the upcoming years. I know I’ll reach my personal breaking point soon with NY laws. I just don’t see a positive future in this state anymore. Been discussing this heavily with my wife lately. Between taxes, gun laws,etc, I’m pushing her hard to reconsider waiting until kids are out of high school to relocate.
