I had one about that size hit the ground near me the other day. I put a boat cushion over my head and got under cover real quick like........but no other big ones fell nearby.
"To avoid problematic bear encounters.... Talk LOUDLY, Sing, and/or make plenty of NOISE whenever hiking, camping, or exploring nature".
Great ! Thanks MDC, for encouraging more folks to get outdoors and stay rowdy. š
Now, here's MY tip to avoid problematic bear encounters......... "12 ga. Slug, .30-30 or .30-06" š
How far would you have to walk to find lots of flowers 100,000 years ago ?
And what kinda condition would they be in by the time you got back with them ?
The best I could come up with, lacking a vehicle, is a handful of dandelions.
Personally I feel that funerals are a disgusting tradition. Whoever started that crap should have been institutionalized.
Don't plan to come to mine..... because there will not be one.
I haven't heard anyone, on behalf of MDC, say why, no.
I have a hunch that they have stopped stocking Hybrids at Thomas Hill also. Long Branch got some 3-4 years ago but it appears to be just a one time thing. There was a stretch of the MO River near Booneville that was loaded with them several years ago.....No idea where they came from.
I think Truman and one of the KC area lakes gets them all.
So it appears that the COE, and the USGS provide those gauges just as a novelty.
Kinda like our tornado sirens here in Gravois Mills. They go off everytime a dark cloud passes over, but the ONE TIME twin F-3's pummeled us......No siren. š¤·āāļø
How long do you suppose it took to carve that paddle into a sawfish sword ?
Kinda creative really. That person will make a good tattoo & piercing artist if they ever get to prison.
