    Lets see your nature scene pics from the boat.

    Floating the Missouri east of Helena, Montana Camped in our little boat, in Northern Minnesota a few hundred yards from Canada. Notice the visitor in the foreground. This is the beaver in our camp. I took a few videos from ten feet. Evidently he was accustomed to tourists.

    "Excess" Corp lands above 1620 in Emmons and Morton Counties to Private Owners

    I agree, and that's why I have mixed feelings about more power to the states. There is no doubt our federal government is corrupt, but so is every state. When it comes to power to the states I like the idea when it comes to education. I like the idea when it comes to many social issues like...

    "Excess" Corp lands above 1620 in Emmons and Morton Counties to Private Owners

    I have a friend here in Jamestown who's father had to sell two sections. They bought eight sections down here and a business in town with money left over. I am happy to see people fired up. This land grab thing is happening all over the west. Nothing new, but we need to be constantly vigilant.

    Old school Chevy motorheads

    I am not much of a mechanic Dave K, but reading this thing about running with muffs, but not in the lake makes me think it's electrical. Is your boat aluminum? I am wondering if it's grounding through the hull when setting in water, or perhaps just grounding through the lower unit. I once...

    "Excess" Corp lands above 1620 in Emmons and Morton Counties to Private Owners

    Bernie Kurtz had a great quote in our local paper a couple months ago. He said: never trust a democrat with your guns, and never trust a Republican with your public land. Good advice on both points.

    top soil erosion?

    Happy for the rain last night. It has been blowing for five days. So much dust in the air there was limited visibility. I took my grandson out to do some long range shooting at a friends place. You could hardly see, then when you went prone you got sand blasted. If not for the rain last...

    Lets see your nature scene pics from the boat.

    This guy was longer than the boat. I think the people working the boat tours said he was 17 feet. Someone must have been feeding him, because he will come up to the boat and lift his head five feet above the water surface and look you in the eye standing in the boat. Little uncomfortable with...

    Smoker??

    I currently have three smokers, and have had a half dozen others. It's odd, but the cheap "Little Chief" still puts the most smoke on the meat. It burned out years ago, and even the replacement burned out years ago. For mothers day I smoked brown sugar chicken in that old smoker. I simply...

    Site speed?

    All this slowness got my curiosity up. So I left the site, then out of internet totally. Then back in again. It takes me six seconds. I am running 15.5mg/sec. Now we may get fiber optic in our rural area so that would be 100mg/sec. Hmmm sounds good to me. I don't know, but I am running a...

    Buy Ammo Now... Hillary Cometh

    I have had guys tell me I am a harder. No I am not, I bought my stuff in the pre-Obama's because I knew this would happen. I still buy new products that are improvements. That actually helps people looking for bullets, powder, and primers now. Some don't u Der stand that, or they just want...

    Forgotten Woodsmanship Skills

    I still like to start a fire with friction once in a while just to prove to myself I can do it. Perhaps one of the things I enjoy most is making a meal with just wild things that I pick. Wild edible plants has been a hobby with me for 45 years or more. One of my deputy friends who passed away...

    Type of action for youth .22

    I like all of the guns people mentioned, but I remember when I was a kid and that influenced me with my kids. While in early high school the Remington 66 came out. A good friend got one for Christmas. The rest of us kids were stuck with single shots and bolt actions. Whenever we went hunting...
