    Taco project

    We finally found Kody something we both agreed on as a first truck. He has plans that I have no idea about. Like cow pattern headliner with star lights. Ummmmm, wut? How about we start with fixing the rust? Lol. This will be a slow process as he doesn't have a license or a job to do anything to...

    Happy mothers day

    Dustin and all the other mothers out there. We celebrated last night as all the kids were home with their partners. I made steaks, Maddy made the sides and everyone else cleaned up. Then we watched Twister. Today I told her we needed to ignore the kids and I'd take her greenhouse jumping. We...

    Lets talk about this

    https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL44H8SR/ If you don't feel like clicking the link. It is a video of a guy talking about how conservation isn't about the conservation of wildlife. Licenses are about the money and have nothing to do with the conservation of the resource. That was my take anyways. He...

    Thank you TOO

    In a time of many questions and very few words you guys have shown greatness. From my family to yours, Thank you. I tried to keep this situation as quiet as I could because it hit so different. Like most family, you guys got the word and delivered in a way that was unexpected. When we walked...

    Harbor freight generators

    I've been hearing good things about them. My Honda got lifted by someone a few years ago and I never replaced it. Having one in my company truck the last year has reminded me how handy they are. Anyways, went into HF today to grab some work gloves and a weed burner. They had them on sale for...

    Honey suckle destruction

    Back in 2020 I started to cut back the honey suckle, but I didn't spray it so it came right back. Yesterday I talked with the other 2 homeowners back here in the woods and we all agreed to do our part. So I cracked open some old beers and started getting after it. Today I will hopefully get the...

    Grandmas car

    I gotta turn in my company truck Monday and take on a new position. With this I will be getting muddy all day every day. Only vehicle I currently have to drive is my tow rig. Which is fine but I have a coffee can that can buy me a commuter vehicle. Something used but not used up. 2 wheel drive...

    Costco or Sam's

    When we lived in Alaska we had memberships to both. When we moved here to Ohio we dropped the Costco because of what was available. Sam's clubs is 20 minutes closer but it always seems to be the same items. It also seemed that Costco had better quality clothing items and such. But it has been...

    Binocular magnification

    I hunt rolling hills, flat land and Appalachia. I also enjoy a few shed hunts a year, lol. In another thread I seen where @Hedgelj said that he preferred the 8.5 magnifying glass for deer hunting. I had a set of 8x that when I upgraded, I upgraded to 10x. I went a few weeks ago to order a set...

    Extra money

    My wife never really worked until a few years ago. The extra money she makes she wants to keep. But she is working with special needs kids and comes home crying at least once a week. I hate it. Kills me to see her like that but she feels like she needs to contribute to the household. It's only...

    How to tag bucks with trash?

    @Boarhead shared a link this morning with a huge 6 point. I raised the question of what would you tag that buck as? 6 point? 94 point? What would the legalities of that tag be? I ask because this year I tagged my buck as an 8 point. It was dark, raining and I felt like I was taking available...

    How would you track this deer?

    This is some amazing footage! 😳 My brain was spinning thinking about this happening out of sight. No doubt it was a dead deer before the follow up shot, but after how long? That deer just didn't want to die or bed down. If you had to track blood...
