Not seeing the turkey here, yet. They usually come August, picking the hay fields for grasshoppers. This years hatch ought to be getting fair size by now.

Have never seen the amount of water in the Woodlands, South Lockport area, that is there this morning. from Mud Creek Several reports of flooding, trees down, and power outages from Lockport west. Many, many flooded basement calls. Witnessed the event from the Genesee County fair last evening, The cloud formations and lighting strikes were stunning. Crowd attendance was very low, but we enjoyed a dry visit until about 8:20. when the storm hit there.

Back in the 80's, we use to get stuck pulling equipment down the roadways. Not that way today, but always manages to rain buckets, when the show is on. It's a great time with many things to see. Plenty of buildings and tents, on site to get out of the elements.

Now when did this happen. Know body told me!

Phil?

Fourteen replies to no pic. Know why didn't I think of that?

Congrats on the new baby. I see sleepless nights in your future, LOL.

That's the way I took it. I'll never admit to being confused, however. My son calls it a senior moment, LOL.

Who's running the country?

Got to get a 3rd job so I can go out and spend $800 on my big game- small game and bow license. Any extra money, I'll buy a beer for my friends, LOL. Happy Hour- Draft only, no bottles. $98 adds up quick every year. Edit: ISU.

Yes, it's that time of the year again for the Empire Farm Days.August 6, 7, 8 th 2013 at the Rodman Lott & Sons Farms; Seneca Falls, NY. Largest farm show in the Northeast. This year starts a new era, a new " Outdoor Sporting Center. Equipment sales and demos from big names such as Savage Arms, Bulldog, Winchester, Browning, Nikon Optics, and more. Check out www.empirefarmdays.com for more info.

Get those Daikon Radish in third week of August. Plenty of time but I like to summer fallow the ground to combat weed problems naturally.

Be careful on that ice water. Dropping the body temp to quickly can lead to serious head gasket problems, LOL.

Yes that does help. I also run my white T shirt , hat and hair under cold tap water before heading out to bale hay. My cloths are soaked anyways when finished. Get the cooling effect of evaporation on he body. They say it's not the heat, it's the humidity. I can a test to that.

LOL. My grandson takes my turkey decoys. and alot of my calls home. He drives his mother nuts with that turkey locator, LOL. He's taking and intrest at a very early age, and I have no plans to curve his intrests.

The "Bugs" have been just terrible this year. Believe it may have something to do with all the moisture. The little B'S land and bite right between the shoulder blades as I regroup in the shade. By the way thunder shower happening as I speak, adding to more. Glad the first field of hay is in the barn. Saw a nice yearling buck feeding on clover regrowth just 15 minutes ago. A reminder of 2 wood stands that still have to be relocated, and awe yes, that cardboard stand,( thank you very much, LOL) that will be built during bow season, the way I'm going this year.

I give you a lot of credit WNY, and admire your motivation. Anything to improve a hunting property is 100% step in the right direction. Already off to a great start.

Very important topic, so should it be pinned. Now should one vote the 25 Republicans out in favor of the Safe Act and vote in MORE Liberal Democrats? Kind of a lose - lose situation isn't it!

I like to use the method of planting alfalfa in a field for several years to control these pest. Hope u can find a successful method for control. One of the constant battles in growing.

Eddie, nice discount. Now your be invisible.

Congrats. My son and DIL named their son Fair Chase.

The way Clarance is building up, I would think twice about using rifle for anything.

Several cherries to a cluster. Never have seen this tree so full. Eating them right on the tractor seat, LOL.

Here, the raspberries and black caps are just starting to ripen nicely. The cherries are abundant and nice flavor. The deer ate my blueberries off at the ground. They also came up to to the house and ate my Horse Chestnuts off. With all the other sweets they have to choose from, LOL. Farmers here are harvesting a nice pea crop. Perfect weather for peas this year. I planted pumpkins on the manure pile, which was the only dry spot on the place. Make the grand kids happy at Halloween, Their thriving there. I'll take some pics of the cherries in the p.m., when I go knock some hay down.

Backtags are for identification purposes. They were implemented for this purpose. Have used the numbers off the back for prosecution once. It only takes one situation to appreciation their use. I support their existence and believe they should continue to be used in the Southern Zone.
