The new banner show a photograph taken by my staff (wife) from the front porch. I wanted to photograph one of them with my .30-.30, but I was afraid that my staff would report me to ‘Operation Game Thief’ and collect the $1,000.00 reward. Out here…reward is pronounced ‘reeeeward’.

This big buck appeared in the backyard last week. He gave me a look which in effect said ”What are you doing here?”

I’ve been watching the weather news where our sons and freinds live…..Snow Storms….Blizzards and White Outs. I just checked my weather station and so far we have 8.7″ of moisture here in the Big Empty. Of course we have haD blizzards and floods occasionally. But that really intesifies the event. When it happens out here it happens. How about 5″ of rain in 3 Hours.

This is the scene where I spent Several great hours sighting in my new Browning semi-automatic rifle. After several hours of fiddling with the rear sight and going through a box of ammunition I was finally able to hit the target. You can see it. It is the small circle on the fence in the distance. My next chore will be more fiddling in an attempt to come close to the bull’s eye. Years ago I was told that “close only counts in horshoes and hand grenades”. The heck with that !
