Mornin' all.
Today is going to be the longest day ever. Just checked the UPS website and my exhaust is "out for delivery"!!! It will be there waiting when I get home. Actually, it will be the longest week, as I can't get it in until this weekend
Spent yesterday pressure washing the quad. Apparently most of the cows at the lease were suffering from some sort of intestinal flu that gave them all diarhea. There was green smelly stuff all over the quad that wasn't mud. Never put a quad with green smelly stuff on it in the same garage your spouse keeps her car in.
(The green stuff smelled worse than the hog we cleaned)

Hello, had some snow up here over the weekend too. Didn't last though, was worse to the south. Planting some pines in the yard yeasterday, saw an eagle flying ove the creek. I knew they were around, but that was the first I at the cabin. Took Kaley otu for a stretch before work and the Turkeys were strutting over at the neighbors. 2 hens, 2 toms, and 2 jakes. One of the toms was a big boy, all puffed out beeting his wings, loooong beard. Grouse drumming in the background. Then about half way to the freeway, ran across another eagle, a bit smaller, feeding on a roadkill. Of course, now I'm here and it's all fading away fast....

Anyone see that truck that hit me .... Just drug my rear out of bed at 10:41 am. Fishing is hard work or is it the cleaning, filleting, skining and vaccum sealing? Diddn't get done till 2 this mornin. After my morning coffee I'm off to take the trash to the dump, get film developed and go buy some dog food and get the bait ready to do some bear hunting next month.

Good morning all,

Well I finally got my truck back together and running strong. New LP and new tires... Now back to work to pay for the bill of getting new tires...

Morning is starting nice and slow for me. 40*F and the sun still isn't over the mountain. Most of the friut trees have blossoms on them (pretty whites & pinks). The deer are walking through the yard getting breakfast and drink. Believe it or not this is all happen right outside the windows as I type this message...

I love being in the middle of no-where! Life is so much better!
