I got several of them around the house here. They started out as just a couple, now there's a dozen or more. I thought maybe one of my neighbors was keeping them and letting them fly free from time to time, still I don't know for sure. Very easy to distinguish from Mourning doves, the collar...

What a cool idea!

Nice idea… a bit more sitting headroom is desirable….

excellent!

Well, Clean Willy’s experience is not mine.

Ive's recommendation of the performer is a good one. Mine is the entry level 22 inch kettle. It's currently 21 years old, replacing one I had for roughly 30 years before that. I've had pellets stoves, green ceramic eggs, offset smokers, and they're all gone. My kettle is never going anywhere...

Euro mount, I see.....

I have a Norvise tying light with magnifier. Very nice.

Yeah. It’s bullshit, but like lots of bullshit, some are gonna believe it every time. It’s been researched and tested for years, nobody’s found any measurable reason why the brass/welding/wood rods cross. I finally gave up arguing and reckoned its poor man’s geophysics. You have a detector, you...

I don’t know…. I’m told the two most life affirming things a person can do are buy a boat on time or get a dog. Either one suggests you’re hoping to live longer than your return flight.

Well, here we are. I've carpeted 18 individual pieces, and got 16 installed. I've learned a few things. 20 ounce carpet is thicker than 16 ounce carpet. It occupies more space. Thus, if it fits, it's probably a bit tight. If it doesn't fit, you'll need to redo it. When the guys on youtube...

Made one with some friends a long time ago, had a lot of fun brewing it. Finally finished the last bottle in 2015 as I recall, it was 20 years old. Tasted real good. Our patience was rewarded.

I've a portable 10KW generator. If you go this route, here's some tips. Get 10 gallons of gas and have at least 5 on hand all winter. That'll give you power while you go get more gas. Change the oil and filter after every use. Drain the gas and the carb out as well. Go to Harbor Freight and...

I’ll remember this story for a while, and I’m not even part of it. You all will never forget this. Congratulations!

Dugan and I got to the field yesterday. Surprise: I found a covey of huns in a place I've hunted them for years but hadn't seen any for the last 4. Dugan had no notion of them, of course. And yeah, I missed. We were joined by this glamorous couple. He was pretty tired at the end of the day.

Regarding the Ocean Spray Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce... I was the only one among 5 siblings (and their spouses and kids) on my wife's side, and two of us (plus spouses and kids) on my side, who liked cranberries. My mother in law and/or my mother would ask, annually, what kind of cranberry...

The shotgun? Well, the first thing you need to know is it's 75/25 the damn thing goes off at all. It's likely to fire significantly later than when you pull the trigger. The guy who showed me how to load it did it this way: Place measured amount of powder in the barrel, tamp. Place wad, or 2...

Roper: I hunted muzzleloader for quite a while. I built a Cabelas kit .54 cal percussion Hawken, which I’ve been fortunate to take several deer with. I also have a 12ga sxs shotgun, and a .50 cal pistol. Building a kit is a lot of fun, and shooting it once finished is kinda like catching a...

Thanksgiving was always the worst when I was a kid. Put a kid in a suit and tie, yell at him not to get dirty playing touch football in a Puget Sound November, Card table in the basement, drunk uncle, yadda, yadda.... When my kids were growing up, with two families of inlaws in proximity, I...
