As for resolutions: Stay in shape. I am too old to be playing the yo-yo game with my weight, and I can really tell if I put on a few pounds when I am on the ice.
Resolution #2 is just to spend as much time as possible with my son.
Ah, New Year's resolutions. I quit making them years ago. But you who have made them, stick to what you have resolved 'cause I'm sure you know what's good for you. I see by The Weather Channel that you in Minnesota and the Dakotas and other points north are getting some really sub zero weather. Take care and stay warm. I am fighting an upper respiratory infection which ,just like last year, I caught from my wife. Went to urgent care yesterday since it was Sunday and I couldn't see my regular doctor. Got a shot in my glutus maximus(butt) and three prescriptions.I just decided to fight it in the early stages since it whipped me so bad last year. I feel better already from the steroid injection. Over the next few days the rest of the meds will do their trick. As of January 1 our deer season is ended and I did not score.We have mucho wild pigs on our lease and the intention is to hunt them now that deer is out. We have already had three or so killed by various members during deer season.They respond quite well to the baited areas where we have corn feeders out.I think this is a case for my new Savage Edge in .223. It's so darned accurate I can't believe it's me shooting it. Of course putting a 10X40X50 good scope on it has helped in that respect. Looking at the post count for this thread always absolutely amazes me.This thread alone has, if I read it correctly, over ONE BILLION ,yes ,BILLION views.Amazing.I am proud to say I have been here from the start.There was something about the original thread which caught my attention. At that time I pm'ed Rick Bin and suggested stickying it to the top.He must have realized it also. Have a great day all of you.

The more I listen,the more I hear....and vice versa.
45/70,it's almost a religion.
If you have to take a second shot then you probably shouldn't have taken the first shot.
a billion? wow. who woulda thought? I think it's 100 million views now that I checked
well this last fall I didn't get to hunt too much, I was working hard on the basement remodel after our hired guy quit in the middle of it after draining our labor budget. anyways, I focused on it and got it done. between that and soccer practice I only made it out hunting half of normal. I did manage to kill a couple deer and of course go along on my mom and aunts elk hunt. we got our refi appraisal and it came in 20% higher than we needed for what we want to do, a very pleasant surprise! we've been fighting the gunk around here from christmas get-togethers. back at the grind after a nice welcomed break. I'll try to post a pic later of the remodeled basement. Bill always liked seeing those. lets hope '15 is a better year.
Have a great Day stan and everyone else.

Beware of any old man in a profession where one usually dies young.
overdue and over budget like most remodel jobs but mama is happy. especially with her wall mounted TV and chromecast TV streamer on it. kids both have their own rooms now and the house is looking less and less cluttered as we situate everything. whew am I glad this project is coming to a close! maybe I'll build a Gazebo on part of the big deck in the back this year..... thanks for looking
