  1. Very nice. I always love to see the young ones excited about fishing.
  2. Girl math! You SAVED $450.
  3. Alright -- I'm gonna let you off with a warning this time.
  4. Ahhh -- that's what we've seen in some of your pics -- the little shelter out in the water. Always wondered what the story was.

    Help

    Well, if the evidence is his friend saw you doing it a month ago, you're dealing with an irrational person. Even more reason not to let it affect your day.

    The Acorn

    I liked it nighthawk. Well done.
  7. Ha! Glad you fished it and had success. That gill is a PIG!
  8. Me too -- and ticks. What a couple of worthless creatures.
  9. Good point, Wayne. When I was a kid it was very rare to end up with a tick -- and we were outside all day long. Never saw a deer (or goose, turkey) in town but they're common now.
  10. BilletHead recommended permetherin last year when I was grumbling about ticks while mushroom hunting. Got a bottle of Sawyer brand stuff at Wal-Mart and sprayed it on my duds. It really seemed to keep them away.
  11. Those are fascinating little animals -- I never get tired of watching them
  12. My wife made me sell my pirogue when we got to the Mandan villages.
  13. I always thought it was a porcupine reference that fit 'cause you're so prickly

    2014 Garden

    Nice! Got a lot going on there BH. Did you stipple the foxglove?
  15. Kardashian.
  16. I hope we get a report or two out of these travels!
  17. I feel so inadequate.

    2014 Garden

    Toooo much lettuce! Seems like this happens every year, even though I try to plant things so it doesn't all come on at once. This cool weather has it all in high gear. I never seem to have much luck with spinach, so I usually don't plant much, but it's doing great this year and I wish I'd planted some more. Salad anyone?
  19. Heard a guy drowned at Hillsdale Lake today. Southwest of KC a little.
  20. Suh-weet! Love the BilletHead stippled Coffee Grinders!
  21. Never heard of the peanuts in Coke thing....
  22. I just meant *I* don't grow enough to make too big a dent in our grocery bill -- most of it's for fresh eating. But, come to think of it -- I've got some beans in the freezer from last year and some Strawberry/Gooseberry freezer jam too.
  23. Yeah, there's the whole farm-to-table movement, CSA's, heirlooms, farmer's markets, and even the preppers. Some of what I grow is readily available elsewhere. But, the flavor, freshness and varieties are not. You can't buy a tomato that matches the taste of one from your back yard. The varieties available to a home gardener dwarf the measly selection at the store. If you saw the pics of my garden in the other thread, you can tell I'm not cranking out produce in quantities big enough to reduce the grocery bill by much. I mostly do it for the fun and satisfaction of it.

    So -- Mitch, how's your little fly-tying-material-eating Chloe coming along? And what's new with the neighbor and the perp'?
