I'll be 61 in a month and want to get new boat before I retire. Sounds weird, but my next boat will be my forever boat!

Congratulations Enders!

Stiff and sore. Pulled a back muscle or two but I’ll live. Glad I don’t have to shovel or plow today!

His and stormy’s writing styles seem similar with the poor spelling and weird punctuations.

Yeah, just sore as hell. I don’t recall getting this sore from a little fall before I turned 60, lol.

No, was a random message about getting his gun taken away as punishment when he was a child.

Maybe 14 inches of heavy wet. Got the driveway all done, was walking back to the house, next thing I know my feet are up in the air as I fall hard flat on my back. Got a good bruise going on my lower left back and am hurting. Back is all tightened up and I’ve been on the couch since 6. Waiting for the ibuprofen to kick in so I can go to sleep. Hit the ground hard, but kept my head out of the impact so I’ve got that going for me.

Same here.

Does it really bother you so much that an unknown boat tied off on a vacant ramshackle dock for about a day that your first thought is how to lay claim to it?

Oops. Didn’t see that post.

I watched it and got all kinds of pissed off. Evil punks. I can accomplish what I need to do to those two in 2 minutes, you can have the next 3. I’ll video and we’ll see that video go viral.

The link is a story about it, but I’m not going to post the direct link to the two videos. I’d like just five minutes alone with those punks. I’d give them the exact same treatment.

Wow, that's a gorgeous buck - congratulations!

Congratulations! Nice character to that rack.

Wow, that’s not a trivial thing. Good luck this week, hope everything goes perfectly!

The guy may have had a mechanical problem or even a medical problem and had to take any port in a storm so to speak. Registered with an up to date sticker? Looks like a decent boat. I’d give him the benefit of the doubt, make sure it’s tied off securely for him and give it time. If it’s still there in a day or two, maybe a call to the cops to verify it’s not stolen.

Well now I feel really lazy. I’ve got a hub blind in the bottom of a little gully 200 yds from my living room that I should have pulled yesterday and I don’t want to walk down there this morning. Hell, I’d have to get dressed first. Maybe later, lol.

Ice is starting to accumulate here. Just walking to the garage and back was a little adventurous, and that’s on gravel. We were going to have our grandkids from Friday morning to this afternoon. We took them back to Rochester last night to avoid driving in this crap today. I was tired as hell and on the road til midnight, but today would have been a hellish round trip. My buddy next door is down from Rochester and is currently in a hang on stand at the bottom of a creek bed. He’s a diehard. Me? I haven’t even got dressed for the day yet, and am waiting for football and grilled tenderloins. And no Bills game on today. Oh well, go Bills anyway!

I’ve posted before that we’ve got a four year tradition of filling my landowner’s tag on Black Friday with our grandson Jake from Rochester. On Friday we got a little screwed up with the combine cutting the corn that we border. We sat in our money spot overlooking a five acre old hayfield that I keep brush hogged, but didn’t see a deer on that sit. They were cutting again Saturday morning so we didn’t go out and figured we’d go for an afternoon sit over the cut cornfield. They were still cutting in the afternoon, but on the other side of the field so we opted to go back to the same stand we sat in on Friday. About 4:00 pm we had a short snouter come out milling around, followed by another, and then mommy joined them. Kept checking them out through the scope and mommy wasn’t much bigger than her fawns. I told him let’s be patient and wait for others. A few minutes later he spots a bigger deer slinking through the woods following the doe group. Get the scope on it and see small antlers. He comes out sniffing around the doe and she takes off back into the woods with her fawns following. Deer are gone from the field. Damn. 4:25 now and I’m regretting my decision to be patient. Legal time was 4:38, so Jake is watching the clock, and a couple of minutes later we see a small doe come out of the far corner about 200 yds. Watch it through the scope and see mommy in the tree line. She comes out to feed with her fawn and they are facing us, no shot opportunity. Clock is ticking and she will not turn broadside. Head down feeding, occasionally up to look around and back to feeding always facing directly toward us. 4:36 now and Jake calls the two minute warning. Cmon doe, turn, will ya? Finally she quarters slightly, and Jake says is that your shot? Bang - doe drops in place. What time is it Jake? 4:37, no, just clicked to 4:38. Shot clock expires and so did the doe. Forgot to take a field pic, and he was cold so we went back to the house and I went to get it with the tractor. Four years/four does in a row with him now. Can’t wait til he’s old enough to pull the trigger himself!

Cool! Old bass player here - too bad we’re not closer, be good to jam with ya!

Wow, great buck! Congratulations!

Thanks, that's my 20 year old kinda project boat. still needs some work but I've got all winter to finish that up.

Out with my grandson Jake this afternoon. Doe taken as the shot clock expired. I’ll post in the harvest thread.

Congratulations!

So what exactly did you order? I’m toting around an old Knight disc rifle. I need to up my muzzleloader game.
