  1. Just had three coyotes trot by me. First time I’ve seen them on my property.
  2. Not my place to discuss but Sweden is very expensive and an estate on 125 acres is going to cost you a fair bit anywhere in the world.
  3. Sweden is cool. The problem is that it's filled with Swedes and they can be a little stiff. I have friends who bought a "castle" in the south. Castle being the original country house in the area. Three kitchens, 11 bedrooms, couple of dining rooms, too many sitting rooms to count; on 125 acres with multiple barns, etc. They have the oldest chestnut tree in Northern Europe. They're doing the country gentlemen thing. With flair. They have been bugging us to move there but seeing their place, I wouldn't be happy with a small cottage somewhere. Good hunting though. This came off their land.
  4. Don't forget Paula White. Between her and Rudy they should have this thing wrapped up pretty soon.
  5. Are these rubs? Near a fresh scrape and beside each other but the second one looks a little too even. If so, how do I hunt them? Morning or afternoon? They are halfway up a ridge and I can set up on the ground above or below them, wind dependent.
  6. Yep. Really got under my skin. Hoping to get to the Faroe Islands next year. I really dig that grey Atlantic hard landscape. With tall blondes.
  7. Good point. We've been here for five years now after spending a prior decade or so in the Catskills, so it's an easy full-time transition. Friends and a decent enough place to live. We may try for two modest places with one being someplace warm for the winter. If I had my druthers, it would be Iceland and Argentina. Back to politics, this map has me very concerned.
  8. It's a great movie. Essentially, Andre Gregory and Wallace Shawn play themselves. But be warned - it is literally these guys talking over dinner, so get your head around that kind of pace. I'm a kid from a small town in Canada. The idea that I get to live in NYC is mind blowing to me. Despite all it's wackiness, I still dig it. In fact we moved to SF for a year and I went out of my mind and couldn't wait to get back. That said, we are planning to sell our apt in the spring and move onto the next phase. Short list: Delaware County, Nova Scotia, Portugal and Mexico, with Sweden and Patagonia being long shots.
  9. It's actually not a shithole, but that aside, you'll like this: a relevant scene from a very good movie about two guys having dinner. My Dinner with Andre
  10. I sit on the board for my NYC building. Out of caution we decided to lock the doors Tuesday night and bring in an extra security for the doorman. One of the other board members said "don't forget we're not that far from "Trump Country" and those people are unstable and own guns." I felt compelled to point out that there were Trump voters in our building as well as legal gun owners, but since I am upstate I'll ask around to see if anyone is planning to invade NYC. Could you guys let me know?
  11. I would suggest that it is the very nature of someone needed to be "on top" that divides the country more than anything else. I also have to say that it is mind-numbingly insane that a country which purports to be the greatest democracy (or constitutional federal republic) in the world can't pull off a simple election. Every four years, it's the same nonsense.
  12. How about they govern together but Trump is in charge of the blue states and Biden the red. I would watch that show.
  13. I don’t know. Can’t remember the names of a lot of women I’ve been with but will never forget the ones that rejected me. Walked out and found a big fresh scrape on one of my paths. How do I hunt it?
  14. I think that works for women as well. Finally seeing deer in my stand. Got a late start today and walked past two older fawns in my yard. Climbed up my ridge and had another doe bolt when I made it to my stand. Oh well. Settled in and heard a crunch behind me. Froze and waited as a good sized deer followed my footsteps to my stand. She stopped at my 9:00 o’clock and stared eating. I need her to walk 15 feet forward but she doesn’t. Turns around and casually walks and feeds in the other direction. Closer.
  15. People really need to learn how to STFU but I wonder if I could use that excuse with my wife ... "Babe, all the girls at the bar I threw passes at rejected me, so I clearly didn't cheat."
  16. People who have a business on the line and are charged with a crime really need to learn to shut up. https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5pD6kDqS5/
