    Snow totals

    Yeah, I work with a couple Nebraskans and we are just in awe of the shitstorm that has taken ahold of Nebraska. Let's hope Mother Nature gets her virgin sacrifice before our melt season is upon us! We have about a 6-10 day window of little to no precip and gently above freezing temps. I hope...

    Snow totals

    You would be amazed at how crappy the country roads around Bismarck were this morning. I slacked off because the kids were out of school and didn't even try to come in until almost 9. After seeing what I'd guess to be about an inch of snow in my driveway, I was floored at the drifting. I went...

    Buy New Boat out of State - Pay Sales Tax?

    Note, back in 2006 I had to go to the State Capitol to pay the tax on the boat. I am not sure if you can now pay it through the local NDGF office. It would be nice to not have to make two stops.

    Buy New Boat out of State - Pay Sales Tax?

    Yeah, I did this exact thing back in 2006 (so it's been a little while) and the writing of that check to the tax man seemed to hurt even more than it did to write the check to the dealer for the boat. Just make sure you talk to your salesman ahead of time or you could get stuck in having to...

    Buy New Boat out of State - Pay Sales Tax?

    NDGF will not license a boat that you don't have a sales tax thingy from the ND Tax Commissioner's office. This is for commercial purchases, private party still doesn't need you to pay sales tax in ND. Basically, if you tell the MN dealer that you are going to license it in ND, you will not...

    FWIW, with the wind this storm has...we'll be able to argue about how much we got until we're blue in the face.

    BTW, I'm expecting 8 here in Bismarck. With about 0.65 inches of water in it. I'm a pessimist by nature when it comes to this stuff.

    We ain't about feelings around here, buddy. This isn't one of those modern "safe spaces" you hear about. :;:sorry

    Moving out of state and hunting licenses

    I believe once you move with the intent of establishing residency somewhere else, it's like burning your passport and you no longer can call yourself a ND resident and partake in hunting seasons as a resident. I might be mistaken on that though as I've not had to test that theory.

    Frozen in Ice Castle ideas?

    It's a lot easier to have this happen than a person may think. Here's how I think it probably happened. 1. Go fishing, nothing unusual happens while on ice, so you leave it there because you caught a fish. It is, afterall...a permanent. 2. Crappy weather brings in a lot of cold weather and...

    Hunting Dog Names

    the running joke I have with my kids is "George". I call everything George and it pisses them off. In reality, my last few dogs have been Reckless (Danielle's Reckless Abandon), Rowdy (Tanner's Rowdy Right Hand), Luke (Luke Fieldwalker), and Cactus (Ex's Cactus Juice)...in reality he was just...

    Melt - thoughts

    In my experience, people have very selective memories. You wouldn't believe the number of people I talk to each year that say "I've lived here 50 years and this is the first time ….". Data pisses them off.

    For all the times I've been at a loss for words to describe my feelings, you captured all those complex thoughts in a very concise manner. Despite what everyone else says about you, you rule!

    when you....

    First thing I check to make sure I have before going afield on a long deer trek is TP, paper towels, and baby wipes. Oddly enough, it's also the last thing I check to make sure I have with me.

    Melt - thoughts

    Don't get to wrapped around the axle with those long range forecasts. They have a tendency to look at what can be deduced in the short term, and then blend it to the climatologic average. Which would suggest a great warming trend on weeks 2-3 from now, even though there is no true reason for...

    Shock Collar

    I've been using a Garmin Alpha for almost 5 years. I can't imagine going back to a non-GPS collar!!! That being said, the remote control on the Alpha is kind of annoying. Not very ergonomic design, the touchscreen is constantly getting "touched" and on some wonky function while in my pocket...
