    Medora fire

    So much history that might have been lost. How would you rebuild much of Medora because so much of it remains as it was from the beginning.Pasture that burned will come back quickly when it rains again. I'm sure the rancher who it seems lost the most is looking for alternative grass and I'm sure...

    used boat prices

    It's not only boats. I built my house in the mid-70's for about $45,000. Today if I wanted to sell it, houses similar in the town I live are going for $150,000-$200,000. In one of the large cities of the state I'm sure it would approach $300,000. When I graduated from college in the early 70's I...

    Insane wind today and wildfire.

    That's a little more than a walleye chop. Fire in the dry conditions and a wind like that could be deadly. Hope none of them are started intentionally.

    new UND Sioux Starting game time tonight for hockey

    Makes sense for the teams, not sure how it will affect some of the fans who are coming from a distance and counting on the original starting time. I know some will say the teams are the most important but fans pay the bills.

    Winter project~

    Your pictures and all the comments are bringing up good memories. Also used to have a muscle car (67 Buick GS 400) and have looked a few times for one. Weren't a lot of them built but it was like all the muscle cars, fast and fun. GS's weren't common because Buick was considered a luxury car but...

    Haulover Inlet in Florida

    I've been through inlets and it's amazing at certain times when the tides coming in and the river flows out. Lots of power but never been a problem if the boat driver nows what they are doing. Sand bars are usually constantly changing due to weather and tides so reading the waves is a real...

    Conservation Plots?????

    Never heard of that term and not familiar with all the rules for the Conservation Snow Goose season but in the fall wouldn't that be considered baiting and a federal waterfowl offense. Remember many years ago when hunters in the DL area were getting tickets for hunting in burned off crops. All...

    Plans for the weekend?

    I don't want to jinx anyone but I've lived in ND to long to put my snowblower away at this time.

    Not an answer but a thought. Does the diameter of the line affect the count?

    Old .22 rifles

    I have an old Winchester Model 90 WRF with an octagon barrel that I was about to throw out until I began reading this post. It's missing some parts and indefinitely a project for someone who's interested. Instead of disposing of it I'm making it available to anyone who's interested. If it's a...

    New Rapala R12 Fillet Knife

    Have tried a couple electric filet knives but honestly I'm pretty comfortable with my Rapala knife that I've been using fro about 50 years. Keep it sharp and it works for me. Can see where the blade is wearing down but it still works. Never runs out of power or needs a cord. Well power can get a...

    Let's knock it off guys and girls.

    My mission is nearing accomplishment. I love dogs and was sure I could get a rise out of my post. All of the puppy pictures are the best. I don't have one of my own but do have 4 grand-puppies. Works great for me and my lifestyle. Keep the pictures coming and I'm sure every one of them is going...

    Let's knock it off guys and girls.

    Come on, let's knock it off with the pictures of your new pups. Every time I see one it sets off a twitch that makes me want to start over in the puppy department. Been fighting it off so far as I like to travel around too much to take proper care and training of a cute little lab with those big...

    Who remembers~

    Always had indoor plumbing but I'm pretty sure it was installed just before the time when I could remember that stuff. Never rode bike to school but had an aunt who worked at the school so rode with her. First tractor I drove was an 'R' JD. had to start the gas engine and use that to start the...

    Good PBZ Reference

    ^^^^^ Yeah, when he told me that we were still using 2.5 power scopes and rangefinders were based on practice and experience. A 200 yd shot meant somewhere between 150 and 250 yds. I shot my first deer in 1963. Things have changed a bit. Long range shooting still requires more practice and...

    Good PBZ Reference

    Wonder how many people realize that a lot of the common deer cartridges are within inches of each other out to about 400 yds. For me, I use a 4'X6' plywood and aim for the 6" diameter bullseye in the middle. Pretty easy to see the drop etc at a variety of ranges. Can also practice with some...

    Spring purge

    Do my garage every year but don't seem to be making much progress. At least it's not getting any deeper. 2 years ago redid the kid's room. Now 40+ year old kids been gone for 20 some years. Still was the same as the day they left for college. Boxed all their stuff up and hauled to their houses...
