I can’t see it, is that cash?

Beaver gave a request and I complied.Who am I to turn down Beaver?

Unlike Rio's, these ain't dead. And they're just kittens............down by the river...............not in a van.................just hangin' out.

Why hello there:

No, it is not cash. It is early cadastral survey paperwork.
The cap is "welded" on due to rust and/or a fire that went through and you can see that the corners of the paper are slightly burnt. I couldn't get it opened and didn't want to break the jar. The paper looks extremely brittle and "flaky", if you will due to the fire. Best I can tell from limited research though, the area hasn't burned since before 1950 when Alaska became a state. It is also up in the alpine where less water is to rot out the tipi of sticks that is holding it up.

I have zero clue how old it is.

Ted need to see a pic, of your lucky hunting hat the old Tweety

Ha, Yeah, he never managed to make the 50-60 mile trip to my place for a visit when I lived that close. Nevermind the fact I couldn't manage to get up there,........................................... this is all about him.

Mostly, I wanted to meet Otis.......................dogs is usually way mo betta than peoples anyway.

I will guarantee you that there was one tough dude.

Any idea as to the year that was taken?

I call BS.

His duds ain't right.

He ain't wearin any Sitka Gear or Kuiu.

Everyone knows you can only kill the big'uns if'n you have the right duds.

Sarcasm off.

Thanks for that pic Sal.

Tweety kicks ass.

Next time he texts me with a pic and random COCKtalk I will pass your inquiry on.

That guy is one funny SOB.

Yes he is....................or was?

Thanks

Will my luck change if I get a Tweety hat?

Actually see bucks, of the right species, in range when I have a buck tag in my pocket?

That is pretty outstanding.
Blacktail are another deer I have yet to hunt.

Well duh..........

I was going to go scout sheep one more time before it opens on Tuesday but it is so socked in, glassing would be pointless, so here I am.

I do need to go check moose cams and maybe fire off a few more rounds at the 5 as this is the first windless day in a while, just to make sure my windage is perfect.

Or, I could just stay here and post pics of trash fish.

Probably a decent one or two up where you got those Mt Quail in NorCal.

Valsdad;
Good morning my cyber friend, I hope your smoke level isn't too, too bad this morning and all are well.

Thanks so much for the bobcat kitten photos sir, I absolutely love them.

One time and one time only, when the girls were still in high school, we three were coming down the logging road from hunting and saw something cross the road followed by four or possibly five smaller "somethings".

We stopped the pickup where they'd gone into the bush and one of the girls spotted first one, then a second and finally four bobcat kittens. I shut the diesel off and we could hear the mom bobcat howling and yowling at the kids to get away from that dirty Dodge, but they stayed for about a minute.

Funny thing too, we all started scrambling for our cameras about then - this was prior to smart phones I guess as we all were packing digital hunting cameras. By the time we'd found them, the kittens had heeded mom's advice.

The spot on the road is forever known as "Bobcat Corner" at our house.

Let's see - previously posted but still for offer and hopes of cooler days. Cutting firewood spring 2020.

Thanks again for the cat photos, they made my morning.

Thanks to everyone who's been keeping this going, they're all fantastic and I am thoroughly enjoying them all.

All the best.

Cut that head off and bleed that one out. More than likely tasty and not "trash".

Dwayne,

Not smokey enough to prevent me from hanging laundry outdoors today. Thanks for asking.

Those kittens were along the road by the river where I used to work. Just so happened I had the little digital camera handy. I parked a bit away and walked back and they were more curious than afraid. I was surprised I was able to get such decent pictures.

Now, I wish I had the camera handy and not in my duffel the day the mt lion crossed in front and posed looking at me just on the other side of the road when I stopped. THAT would have made a real keeper of a pic. 20' at the most from my window, looking out from a scrub bush.

I may have asked, but forgotten..............what is the chambering on that short barrel bolt action? It looks handy.................and loud.
