I'm thinking of have some greeting cards printed with my wife's flowers on them. [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Nice, I like it!

Those are purty Wabbi. You should set the Gillyman right in the middle of them flowers, then grandma would have two of her favorite things in the same picture.

Keep the good work in suggesting pictures. Great idea, and I would love to contribute again, but I am in the hospital with a broken hip. I will be able to start contributing again in a day or so!
There some real neat pictures here today.

Grouse hunt last year with my two dependable friends.

NY bear from last fall. Found a proper piece of wood floating in the river. Hollowed it out. Fabbed up a metal stand and wired in some LED lights. I think I’m going to tone down the brightness a bit. Lost the hide when my freezer died in March.
The hole in the skull was from the bullet. Ruger .44 carbine did a number on him

It is accessible on forest service land after crossing the West Rosebud River at Pine Grove campground and then straight up.The pictures were taken by accessing it from private land---no longer accessible by me.If you are ever in Columbus give me a call (pm me for number) and maybe I can drive you up to where I am talking about.

No, I bought it. It works pretty good, but it takes a few minutes to hook up. It really helps if it's a big deer and I'm by myself. If it's a dink, I'll just throw it up there. But as I get older, this thing is a real back saver with the big deer.

Initial Rock.

Western ND.

Two of Custer's privates carved this on the way to the Little Bighorn according to the historical marker.

When me and my hunting buddy first found Initial Rock it was down a barely passable two track "road." It was a lot more legible then.

There was no protection for the carvings at all. Some dickhead carved "Fughk You" in between the two privates carvings.

Now there is a make shift roof and chicken wire all around it to try and preserve it and a semi maintained road and small, primitive, campground by it.

Day late and a dollar short, IMO.

The pic below is how it looks now. It was way more "wild" when we first found it.

Coming back from Rhode Island Sunday. NAWCAD Lakehurst NJ.

The large hangars with the orange doors are airship hangars with the first one built in 1921 to house the USS Shenandoah. The concrete pad to the upper right of the hangars is where the Hindenburg crashed. The thing that looks like an odd shooting range to the upper left are test catapult tracks. I landed a Prowler on the runway to the left of those in 91 to do some Tailhook testing and it had one of every set of arresting gear (including ships) that the Navy used.

Pugs I was in those hangers in the mid 50's and got to climb into one of the gondola's......and I was all of 7-9 years old but some memories live on into old age!

Cool! The dirigible age was fascinating to me. Amazing what we were able to do with giant wood structures back then. Today the environmental protection study prior to breaking ground would take years.

Great photos Tik' !

Might be something going on at the new place ?

I built my own house, did everything except finish the concrete ( did pad, forming, plumbing, grade beams and rebar), insulation ( Company did it cheaper than I could buy material) , sheetrock, and lay the brick.

Don’t ever want to do that again!!!!

Paul, your before pictures look like a lot of the homes I've seen in rural, southern Manitoba. Is it that people just got old and moved on and nobody bothers to fix them up until someone like yourself comes along?

Can't wait to see your next pics! I'll bet that place will be nice!

Cooling off in the San Saba while sitting on a rock ledge. Cold beer in the floating, iced down, cooler.

More than likely Rooster, the people we bought from were retirement age, so wanted to be closer to their kids & grand kids.

They redid the the upstairs interior prior to the sale. It's nice enough, but I keep noticing "little things" that annoy me/us !

I guess he was just rushed to get things done.

We had planned to build a master suite for ourselves downstairs, but when the snow came off the roof, decided to "reroute" that money.

The standing seam steel roof has a lifetime warranty & the new siding a 35 year warranty.

As it will be our forever home, decided to pull the trigger & 1 & done it !

Yeah, I hear you Hanco, I normally fish 3 times a week in summer.

Season opened May 16th & I've been out 5 times !

'bout written this year off, but it'll all be worth it.

Doing as much as possible ourselves, but hired a contractor for this project. I'm helping with labour, as work time allows.

I pulled the deck off with the tractor, after they detached from the roof, then dug the trench for the footings & sono tubes, + I'll be finishing the new deck interior.

Lots of great photos here guys. Thanks and Be Well, Rustyzipper.

Ditto, this is a nice change from the usual fare in this forum.

I'm always impressed (and more than a bit jealous

) at the breadth of experience and the photographic skills of the membership here.

I'm not sure who won this battle. The deer died, but it was $4000.00 damage to my truck and cost me $1000.00 out of pocket.

No, a surgeon, a dentist, and South Texas rancher, farmer, fruit and vegetable packing business owner who ships fruit and veggies all over the US and parts of Canada.

Danny has some of those $20,000+ breeder cattle. He has their pile of eggs harvested and artificially inseminated, then plants those fertilized eggs in his scrubb cattle on his Brush Country ranches. When they later drop a heifer, viola- $25,000 cow.

Dentist was a heli pilot who flew some pretty bad missions in Vietnam war. Hunts birds only.

Kenny, those are awesome pics! Is that horse a Roane? I have no experience with oatsmobiles but I've always liked those.

Our daughter has always had an eye for art. She took this pic when she was 11 or 12. It's a swing the kids hung up in the yard years before. She titled it "memories."

Rooster, that's a keeper. It would be hard to beat that one at any age. If you haven't had a print made you should consider it!

Ken

PS, that's what I would call it! I am sure somebody will correct me if I am wrong.

(in reference to the horse color)!

Yes it is, thank you. I've got a set of Carlson choke tubes for it now and it's my go to for sporting clays. I love it. I found it on the "used" rack at a local gun store about 5 years ago. I don't think it had ever been shot and it was like brand new. I paid $1400.00. I ran the numbers on it and it was built in 1994. It was a really good find.

Lots of people there don't like to eat them, but it's more about the above prep steps, than bad, mushy, dark, fishiness !

Yeah, I'm not a big fish eater. If the wife wants some, I'll generally just filet it on the tailgate of the truck as soon as it dies. Then I skin the filet. It's OK for me if I do that. Sometimes if we get into them real heavy, we can catch 20 to 50 in a couple of hours. Generally 99.9% of them go back into the ocean. They're just fun as hell to catch. But like hunting, sometimes you go out there and don't even get a hit.

Probably my only regret in moving to inland Canada, is the smell / feel of the sea & what it provided for me & mine.

Awesome variety of photos today gents !

Wooden railroad bridge that separates my cousins house from my Uncles house. Train threw a spark and started a grass fire and burnt this antique bridge. Cousin had to drive the equipment 7 miles around to get to the farmland on that side. He had to crawl down and up the steep banks twice a day to do cattle chores. This went on for over a year before the railroad finally caved in and replaced the bridge with a concrete one. This is 3 miles from my house.

Some of my favorite subjects

Good going all, this goofy place at it's best.

I have never seen one of those Quails nice picture!

Been getting out a couple of days a week fishing and sporting clays. We have lakes that are draw only for Walleye with slot size limits. This is the season limit for this lake to keep - 2 A class (over 50 cm) and 3 B class (43 to 50 cm). The Rizzini is my new sporting clays gun. I am quite enjoying it.

The pic does not do the body size justice on this deer. I was about 225 then. This deer was gigantic. Wish I would have had a scale at the time. lol

Pass this location 10 times a week. Had a pretty good blow about a month anda half ago. It did some damage to the roof of one of our 'Fire guy's in Helena. A lot of fresh blowdown where it hit direct from the west. Bad spot for me to get a good picture, here it is nonetheless. Would have been something to witness.
