    NFR Got any mammal pictures

    While sitting and having lunch on our Grand Valley hike the other day, this doe casually walked between me and my hiking partner, who was only 30 feet away. They must encounter enough humans to recognize that we are no threat inside park boundaries

    Got any bird pics?

    Hiking in the Olympics the other day and had a ball watching these guys chasing grasshopper in the alpine. They did not care that I walked with 5 feet of them on the trail. Saw about 20 on the day.

    NFR Need vehicle opinions.

    Pretty similar, but we don't need or want the 3rd row and need a bench seat for the second row. That coupled with higher cost pushed us to the passport

    That happened to me a couple years ago, traps baited with ripening tomatoes placed along fencelines and space breaks near the tomatoes took care of it. I got three of the bastards on less than a week that way and no more tomato thievery

    If you find the right chuck roast, you can pull a check eye and a denver out of the same one! I try to find a good one whenever they are on sale, best value steak you can get anymore
