I'm interested to know if he will be renting himself out, with that bunny suit this weekend????

Wow! What a nice way for United, to treat a paying customer! Just when you think you've seen it all...........

I've got an almost 13 year old grandson who is 6'1" and 200lbs. who is eating us out of house and home! Will need to shoot at least one more deer this year to keep up!

Who knew coyotes could be cool!

Sounds like a fun time!

Yes, I'm sure there is much better turkey grounds between us. And it is a long haul. But the chance to meet phade, moog and I would assume Larry, would be really cool! Good group of guys. We do have almost 500 acres between two properties. But don't have a big population of birds. Although they are making a come back over the last couple of years. And we do have some turkeys. At one point some years ago it was common to see different flocks of 30 or more birds on each end of the property. But an increasing predator population and a few brutal winters took a hard toll on them. Was up doing some chores after work tonight, and saw two nice toms, strutting for a half dozen hens, a couple fields over. Hoping we can get one of those for my grandson. We'll see.

Been a Red Wings fan since the days of their AHL team in Glens Falls.Sorry to not see them in the playoffs this year. But I'll certainly catch some of the games. I really enjoy watching hockey.

Up to the farm after work tonight. Two very nice toms out strutting for a half dozen hens. No gobbling though that I could hear. And too far away for pic's with my phone. But very encouraging for the youth season!

Have you guys found a spot yet? You all would be welcome here. Not what I'd call a turkey hot spot, but do have some birds. 4-H 30 miles outside Albany in the hilltowns. Would not want anything in return.

The cost of just tossing returned items, is nothing compared to the potential loss they would have if someone were to get sick.

Looks like Michael J Fox in Teen Wolf! Cool picture!

I'm certain too, that a Trex deck will add value to your home, if you should ever decide to sell. So it's not like you're tossing out $. And I'm sure the closer you are to NYC, the higher the labor costs. Being in Westchester, you are fairly close. So home pricing is higher too. My point is that most quality home improvements add value to the home.

Good luck Doc. Hoping it will be a relatively easy fix. Any property owner, outside of public service, either has, or will go through septic issues at some point. Good you have a starting point now.

LMAO! You know, come to think of it there were some stray strands of carpet scattered about, along with some imported olive oil fingerprints from previous handling. But hey, it's all good. Big thumbs up moog!

Thank you b N b! And everyone, for the kind words. When something dreamed of, becomes a reality, all is well. ....smile...

Yes, our farm property. We haven't really seen much turkey activity until this week. Be so cool if we both kill our first birds in the same spot! Thirty plus years apart.

Need to get it done for him during youth weekend. As I'm scheduled for surgery on May 4th.

For the money any of these trucks cost, they should all be mostly problem free. But agreed they all have their problems. And buying any new vehicle is just a luck of the draw. It seems.

Got a report today from my buddy, a huge tom was strutting in the field, on the farm with a bunch of hens. The same field where a long, long time ago, I killed my first bird. Be so cool if I can bring it full circle with my grandson. We will see?

Yup!!! Agree with ya 100% Steve. I was a long time Chevy guy. And had nothing but trouble with the last two new GM trucks I bought. So I bought a Nissan Frontier in 06. 155 thousand on her now with all original motor, tranny and drive train. Have put on one exaust from cats back. All new water hoses, a wheel bearing in each front wheel (it's a 4x4), and brakes when needed, along with tires of course, and just did rear shocks, that's it !! She is still running great! Good thing cause I can't swing a new truck right now. I know, buy American. And I will if I can. But I get more for my money from the Nissans and Toyota's that are mostly made in the USA now anyways. Out of the four brand new GM trucks I've bought, not one lasted me more than 110 thousand miles before having to sell or trade.

So envious of you new truck guy's!! Way to go! All look very nice! But, I gotta make due with my old 06 for now.

Steve, I would also like to add, that I hope you find a way to cure the mounting problem on your uncles Sako. Keep us posted as to what you come up with, as your opinions and solutions are solidly recognized. And I'll admit, that I don't know enough about these yet to give you a working plan of action. Be interesting to see how you guys work it out. And I know you will!

Hoping it's something that will heal quickly on its own. Prayers sent.

Looks like you guy's had a great day out there! You'll get em next time!

Nice truck! Congratulations and good luck with your new baby!
