Da Hammer

Prayers for your wife. Y'all keep up strength, courage and faith in the fight. Cancer still and always will suck

Looking for a Truck for Little Hammer. Seems like this is a pretty reliable vehicle. Looking to stay 15K or less and seems like you can find these for that price range actually a little less with less than 100,000 miles. Would have good safety features and not as popular as say a Tacoma or something.

Am I off the mark here?

First off I can't agree with you more. The anticipation of the BPS catalog arriving was fantastic. Then to get it and spend a week studying and deciding what you had to have. Then the order and waiting on it such great times.

Secondly, I guess showing my age but they way you describe it in your story I hear the voice of Ralphie from Christmas Story reading it to me!

Great times thanks for sharing!

Fawns are affected by CWD so as a result I would expect it's passed from mother to offspring and buck to doe however I can't recall reading that word for word in a study. ( I have tried to familiarize myself with most of the work on CWD).


I also assume that the language that passed still outlaws feeding in CWD zones? I can't find the exact language but I know that was in the proposed language.

Thanks gonna cook some doves tomorrow

I LOVE Yellowstone, Grand Teton and even more so Glacier NP.

The biggest thing I learned in Yellowstone is the roads... It is huge to make the loop around the entire park (the main road basically loops the exterior of the park) will take you an entire day, it's that big of a place.

We hiked to Lonestar Gyser several times, it only erupts every 2-3 hours we have caught it twice it's pretty neat.

Not sure how much snow there is but climbing Bunsen's peak, isn't super physically demanding but a beautiful view. Some of the other peaks if they have no snow are beautiful as well.

Lamar valley is amazing the number of animals you can see from the car or getting out of it and walking a few miles is simply amazing. I would recommend hitting this in the evening and staying until dark one night it's really cool. Not to mention the stars are amazing at night out there and if the northern lights are active at all you can see them from there but timing may be off but I'm no expert on this....

Yellowstone has amazing scenery but the animals and the geology are what make the park IMO. The scenery in Grand Tetons and Glacier are better IMO, that being said if you told me I could never leave yellowstone for the rest of my life I would die happy. It's a real treasure.

We will be out there weather permitting. While the winds look good looks to be a high chance of storms in the area.

Everyone be careful the late August thunderstorms can get bad quickly. Hopefully we will all have large openings in the weather to get out and get back.

There are really no words for this. Skip brought so much to LSU and to Louisiana. I can remember how much fun I had as a kid at his LSU baseball camps in the early 90's. His version of college baseball was so much fun to watch it was always amazing. Thanks for everything coach.

:wah: :wah: :wah:

you never know. My land is flooded by the big black and MS river and it typically grows like crap without help.

Duck potato is an interesting food source.

At the mouth of the MS river it is absolutely the preferred food for Pintail and Canvasbacks they absolutely love it. Everywhere else I have been it's a potential food but not something I find they go out of their way for.

This late in the game you may still be able to plant Jap Millet and get a decent crop however I would be tempted to leave what you have if you already have water and go with it.

Yeah…. Was a solid no for me before….

200 acres for 20k nope nope nope
