  1. Holy schnikies! I looked up the lodge where you are. I need to start saving my shekels!
  2. I'd have done the same thing, and might not have stopped at two.

    Or, let them use their hands, and allow tackling and blocking.
  4. BTW -- I always try to steer my business to the local, non-chain guys whenever I can.
  5. Yeah, forced to buy a couple.
  6. Looks great Marty!
  7. Sweet looking fly right there.

    Oh, baby that looks good!

    Yeah, I came in with a few minutes of regulation to go. Would I have stuck it out the whole time for a 0-0 tie? I doubt it. It's pretty tame action wise compared to the NFL. But I recognize it's a cultural thing to a large extent, and not really a fair comparison.
  10. ...raised beds...filled with good soil...problem solved
  11. I generally wait until the onion stalks start to fall over, which is right now for me, then back off on the watering. When most of the tops are down, I'll knock over the rest and pick them in about week.
  12. Nice report Nighthawk. We've got a similar tradition going to Roaring River each fall with a fairly large family group. Those trips have become something we all really look forward to.
  13. Some folks like Badgers, but I'm more of a Beaver guy.
  14. Darkness? I thinks it's a sport that's more dangerous than it seems to the outsider. People die fairly frequently. I just read this -- don't know if it's real, or if it explains what happened at TR, but it's interesting : http://www.scubadiving.com/lessons-life-death-shallows
  15. Nice Beaver!

    World Cup

    I've got to say, that was pretty exciting there for a while. I was able to listen to it on the AM radio (just like the old days!) from about 10 minutes before the end of regular time to the end. That 19 year old coming in for the first time and scoring a goal within a couple minutes was really something. Howard had a great game, but it kinda highlights how weak we are. Can't wait for 2018!!
  17. I don't think I've ever seen wild past the green stage? Good to know. I've mostly had the green/tart kind in pies, which I like. I've still got some coming on, I may pick some green ones for a comparison.
  18. I think the color depends somewhat on the variety. Are you picking wild, or are you growing them? Mine are 'Pixwell', which are a little less tart and get purple as they ripen.
  19. Good for dad!
  20. I read an article on them today -- said they're often used as a replacement for poblanos. I'd never heard that. I made some Étouffée last weekend, and used a poblano instead of green bell pepper. I saw that in a recipe online, and I'm not a huge fan go green bells, so I gave it a try. It was really good, and gonna be the way I do it going forward. Interesting to think of Cubanelles along those lines too. So, I was out on the estate tonight, doing the ness Twist™ and here's what I reaped:
  21. Nice fish, nice write up. Sounds like a great trip. Was it your daughter fishing the princess rod?
  22. You know how to tell an Italian goose? They don't honk, they say 'Badda Bing' and wear a pinky ring. Looks great, Marty. How would you describe the flavor of the Cubanelles"?
  23. What kind of tackle do you guys use?
  24. 50 times earnings......
  25. I wonder if they have some technical advantage that sets them apart? I don't know anything about them, but if Apple and others can put a video camera in a phone, it seems like the technology is pretty mature. Apple's sitting on a zillion dollars in cash. I suspect if they wanted to make a run at little video cameras they could/wouold.
