    Spring snows 22

    I've been seeing flocks of migrating Canada geese and ducks the past several days. Gotta imagine with the warm weather expected next week that I'll be seeing lots of birds by end of next week. - - - Updated - - - Note, that would be in the Bismarck area.

    Cost of owning stuff

    Sure glad I picked up 7 cases of cheap beer when passing through Chippewa Falls the other weekend. Money I save drinking Leinenkugel Light is going into the gas tank.

    Branson Tractors

    Along the line of what SLE mentioned, I would strongly encourage a person to buy a "gently used" JD or Kubota. I run a 2006 JD 4120, it's 43 hp, but you can get the same frame with up to 70(?) hp. It's been all I need for running a 7 ft tiller, bushwhacker, dirt and snow moving, pallet forks...

    Toyota 4 Runner 2 ?s

    One thing on the year-round use of snow tires. Snow tires are generally made out of a softer rubber to get better traction on slippery surfaces. So if you run snow tires all the time, you will generally be very disappointed in the wear and longevity of them. Also, it is true that narrower...

    Toyota 4 Runner 2 ?s

    I have a 2015 SR5 with the stock tire size of 17". I am pretty sure the only real difference between the factory 20 inch tires and the 17 inch tires is the rim diameter, the actual circumference/height of the tire is still the same, or very close. This just means the 20 inch wheel combo has...

    Right, and he says "this hunt will be all I got until August". Such a terrible existence...and here we all sit;:;popcorn.

    two years

    Very interesting read, db. I recall, mostly pleasant recollections, of when I thought I'd have to work until the day I died. I'm not so sure about that anymore as I am 4.5 years away from being retirement eligible. Got no wife or gal pal as I write this, so I can literally go anywhere, do...

    Sippin whiskey

    You need to go to Thailand. That crap they call whiskey is an abomination. Not even snake blood could fix it.

    Hats off to the firemen

    I think I am a little different in the sense that I grew up having to feed the cows regardless of weather conditions. So I found myself out on the roads in some really shitty weather on a regular basis, but back then the biggest concern was getting stuck so bad you had to walk home. No big...

    Lake Winnipeg 2021/2022

    Lots of canucks in AZ. Some of them are going through Mexico to get home to satisfy their residency requirements. Kinda weird to think that you need to go through Mexico to get to Canada from the USA. But it's true...

    Hats off to the firemen

    It was fucking stupid yesterday. I went to Green Bay to pick up a boat a friend just bought and the absolute moronic behavior of people on the road between here and there as the weather got bad was ridiculous, and even worse on the road home. 50 ft of visibility and people were ramming their...

    Youth Shotgun reviews and comparison

    If you find a Red Label for under $1k, you really need to let me know. That is way less than the average I've been seeing them as of late.

    Youth Shotgun reviews and comparison

    I would probably recommend them for changing length of pull over felt recoil since they effectively add a half-inch or so to the end of your stock. But the actual answer is no, I think they look ugly and I try to not encourage uglification of anything outdoorsy. Rather than going with the...

    Be on the lookout for escaped garbage can...

    LOL, I didn't want mine to join its migrating friends the other day, so I didn't take it out to the highway. Then about 1000 I hear the strange noise of a garbage truck doing its thing, which I thought was odd since I intentionally didn't haul it out and I certainly can't hear it when it's at...

    Youth Shotgun reviews and comparison

    I think the only issue here is the $1399 MSRP. That's a lot to spend on a kid's shotgun. Note, I shoot a Benelli M2 and love the thing. Great handling and dependable platform!
