    Stupid really isn't an excuse

    Had a friend go through this. Pretty sure it was 7 years for him. He even owned a lake home 15 miles north of the border. His wife could go up, but not him. Easiest answer is to contact the Canadian Customs or maybe even look for info on your computer 20 years ago I would guess will be no problem.

    Seagull removal

    Don't have a for sure answer but my neighbor paced a pink flamingo on his shoreline to keep the geese from walking up, along with their shit, to feed on the nice green grass. Only suggestion I have other than a 12ga, perhaps a 20ga. for birds the size of seagulls.

    Steel Roofing

    Replaced asphalt shingles last fall with metal roof. Metal were on the higher level (heavier steel and no screws visible. Cost was a little higher than asphalt but installation was quicker so overall cost was a little higher for steel but not multiple times higher. There is a discount on...

    Sporting Clays

    Have shot a few rounds of sporting clays but probably not in the past 20 years. Lack of availability is the primary reason. Can't actually recall where ranges are available.. If there are any available in northern ND I have never heard of them. Even more so, is it possible to have a course...

    Olympics have gone full Satan

    Love the Olympics, normally. Last night's opening ceremony ended up being shut off. I prefer an opening ceremony where the athlete's are the show. Last night the so-called performer's I thought were, hell, I'm not sure what I thought. So bored I kept hoping it would get better and finally had...

    REVIVAL IS COMING

    Haven't taken the time to read all the comments but the conspiracy rumors that it was planned baffle me. There is no one that I trust to "Just shoot me in the ear so it looks scary." I might allow someone to shoot me in the lower leg with a pellet gun or maybe even a .22 but graze my ear? I...

    Venison Ribs

    I've cooked venison ribs several times. I trim them up somewhat but don't worry about all the fat and silver skin. Place them in a crockpot, standing. up. Cover with broth, (beef or chicken) and cook on low pretty much all day like other things you would cook in the crockpot. After 6-7 hours...

    What do you put in yours

    Pretty sure you can make a tasty drink with all that. My problem would be taking more time to mix it than to drink it. I'm pretty much a beer man. pop the top, drink it and then repeat.

    First Deer

    I was 13, no license but was pushing bush for my dad and his hunting partners. Chased out a fawn with a back leg about shot off. When we finished the drive the adults decided that this deer would be better off if we finished it. None them wanted to shoot it so they offered to let me shoot the...

    Riddle Me This.....

    So what is this?

    Was employed at a school for 30+ years. One fall after I had retired I went to the first VB game of the season. During a break I went to use the restroom. Walked in and the restroom had been remodeled. Thought "Why the hell did they remove the urinals and replace them with stalls in the Men's...

    Solar Eclipse

    I remember the eclipse in 79 or 80. Neat to see but not something that I have a desire to travel very far to see again. Would recommend if close to a full eclipse. Today with the TV coverage you get a pretty view on TV. Don'texperience the full affect of going dark during the day for a few...

    Spring snows 24

    Finished driving 281 from Aberdeen north today. Lots of geese north of Aberdeen to about 10-15 miles into ND. Started N. of Aberdeen about where I was west of the Refuge. Several big flocks and most sitting in fields. This was about 10 in the morning.

    Spring snows 24

    Came up 281 in SD yesterday. One huge, by huge I mean huge, flock sitting on water in the Redfield area. Other smaller flocks of Canadas and ducks but that was the only flock of snows.
