    If you do that dont leave the batterys in it will drain it and kill the battery so it will not charge. I have a set up like than on the fan for the dog kennel and found out the hard way with a 60v dewalt battery

    Im sure there will be a fair amount of legal wrangling going on with that. For the time being they will fund it and if the company does end up paying then you can say they paid it back. I would guess they just claim bankrupcy and the us is going to be footing the bill regardless

    The port of Baltimore generates 3.3 billion in revenue with over 400 million in tax revenue so it might be in the country’s best interest to get it up and running again as it will pay for its self or we could cry around and shipped goods will just have another reason to go up in price again.

    We got decent run off for the seasonal ones when the little snow we had melted. Its more important for those to get water in them and if they dry up by july so be it breeding season is done

    How you want to hunt or some one else does should have no bearing. If it’s legal that should be the begging and end. Millions of dollars will need to be replaced wonder if the regular guy is ok with tag prices doubling to replace that money?

    The way i look at with the sheep tag here is one tag raises 300k for the sheep program its worth it. How many tags to residents have to be sold to match that one. They could not sell enough to match the funds that one tag makes
