Made some from-scratch beef stock then a vegetable beef shoop. I love the next day when you just carve off a hunk of soup and rewarm 😀 Last night pan-fried cod with lemon caper sauce, zucchini and some rice.

Man, it's slow out there!

Only about 4 or 5 inches here. 6 degrees and sunny. Driveway cleared and sun is taking care of what we missed. Fortunately the house faces south.

That's a cool shot!! Kinda like this one. This was 2010

So do I!🤪

There was a kid in the neighborhood where I grew up that had a monkey. That thing was aggressive, mean and nasty and as far as I know spent its entire life in a cage. I can't see a monkey and not think of that critter. That whole family was a little different.

There aw There was always that rush to get out to western KS for opening day, but often it was just plain hot, vegetation was still green, dogs didn't do as well and there were too many people. More tradition and social than serious hunting. I always enjoyed the later hunts, even though the birds were smarter, and I really liked it when there was snow. Like you said, the birds sat tighter, the dogs scented better, and there were less folks out. But...there were some brutally cold and windy days along with that too. This was a few years back -- a preserve hunt with ness 2.3. Our beloved Max's last hunt. He was completely pooped and ready to go by the time this pic was taken. Both dogs are in here but a little hard to see. Ruby about dead enter, Max closer in.

We drove through there in October. I think they wanted $5, and said it was because they are not state funded but funded privately by the James Foundation. That's nothing new, but being charged just to go in was new to me.

Ok, let me un blur the photo

It made me smile that instead of "Restrooms" the signs said "Toilet" over there.
