    Need to find some canning rings

    Canning lids can only be used once. The rings are reusable. I always remove the rings shortly after the lids pop. At least loosen them a bit. The lids hold tight by themselves if they seal properly. If they don't seal you need to refrigerate the jars shortly.

    Need to find some canning rings

    Take the rings off after the jars have sealed. They do not rust then and can be used over and over.

    Sweating like a whore in church

    Any temp above 60 seems to hot to have most dogs out in. Not so good for hunters either. A friend of mine lost two buddies during warm pheasant hunting trips. Heart attacks.

    whistles vs. voice vs. TT collar vs....???

    Back in the days when I had good running gear and more time my dogs were mostly under control without an E collar. Rabbits and deer are a big exception. However the best dog training tool I have is the E collar. Wished many times that I would have had one 35 years ago. Luckily Brittany's are...

    Birds flushing early (75+ yards)?

    If there are grouse in the area it is likely that hunters have been hitting the area previously. They get smart quickly. Probably those sconies. :;:stirthepot

    Salsa

    I started growing heirloom tomatoes about five years ago. I was sceptical at first like many others. No doubt they are more difficult to raise than hybrids but they taste better than most hybrids. Have had good luck with pink varieties from northern Europe. The biggest obstacle seems to be...

    My dog is going blind PRA

    Last week I had to put down my 17 year old Brittany. Several years ago we found out that he had a bad heart. I took him out a few times after that but after five minutes he was laboring to breathe. So I decided it was time to retire him. He didn't like staying at home but I'm pretty sure heart...

    Chili, one of my many favorites

    Lots of good ideas here. Slow cooked makes all chili better. 4 hours minimum. Yes it is always better the next day. I have tried different types of chili powder some are spicier than others. Just don't forget the garlic! I also like to use a variety of beans. Plenty to choose from at your...

    The farmers almanac was completely wrong last year. El Niño seems to be in the forecast.

    South Dakota tribe to open....

    The Colorado Springs newspaper ran a series of stories about the downside of the new pot laws. Their facts put a very negative spin on legalization. I have read opposite views. I guess time will tell for sure. I know for sure the issue has really divided the rural and city folks.

    12 or 20 gauge for pheasants?

    Full choke 12 gauge sounds like cornfield pass shooting. Hunt with good pointers or flushers and close shots are common. Even later in the season. Getting the gun up fast becomes more important than long range shooting.

    Fargo Diversion and the ND Game and Fish

    Very true ObiWan. In 1993 there were record rains in Bismarck. There were hundreds of homes in Bismarck that had water in the basement. I worked in many of them. The ground water problems in North Bismarck are well documented. Sump pumps and drain tile have become a requirement since 93.

    Women ideas!!!

    My wife's cousin was upset with the dandelions in her yard so she got the pump sprayer out and filled it up with Roundup. She did get rid of the dandelions. Plus a good amount of the nice green grass.
