    I'm going to send him my cut out tag notches.

    Rattlesnake on Patio

    Being bitten by copperheads seems like a family tradition in my family. My great grandmother was bitten twice, grandma once and dad was bitten on the hand as a teenager. My family comes from a long line of root diggers, green pickers, and berry harvesters. Lots of real "foxfire"...

    Venting - encounter with a butthead

    Having been in public service for 20 years, I can relate. Unfortunately, there are a disproportionate amount of people that act just like this anymore. Ain't nobody happy....

    One way to stop a corner cross

    If I ever win the Powerball, I'm buying some checkerboard and placing some trained killer dobermans at the corners so their noses touch at the corner....see you skinny guys squeeze between that 😆. Plus anti-aircraft guns for the helos... Actually, I've always thought that if I were to come...

    Just Complaining

    We've had 3 days in a row of rain here. When it does stop, the humidity is so thick you could cut it with a knife.

    Think it’s so easy??

    I drive everywhere for mine and my dads hunts. I'm one of those crazy people that enjoys driving for hours. I do ALL of the driving too. Dad's driving scares me :LOL: My longest drive was to southern Arizona for coues and javelina. Over 30 hours total, spread out over 3 days. I'll probably...

    Midwest Public Land

    Not necessarily the area you are talking about, but Ohio is darn near impossible to get private land access to deer hunt unless you are very, very close friends or family with someone. Even then, far from guaranteed. Usually the farmers that will allow access allow a lot. And they don't care...

    COVID or the Flu?

    I got the Pfizer vaccine. First shot felt like Tyson had punched me on the shoulder for the next couple days. The 2nd dose got about a 1/4 of the soreness, and I was draggy for a few days. Other than that, no other side effects.

    And yet anther hobby....

    The little village I live in was founded in 1802. I live right on the main east-west travel route from those days between Cincinnati and points east. The road is in virtually the same place as it was back then. The farm across the road dates to at least pre 1877, and is probably much older...

    Found this Saturday evening 50 feet from my front door. Unbelievable shape to be 176 years old!

    Yeah, that is the first thing I did when I saw the '37 😆 It is just a regular 4 leg version though.

    And yet anther hobby....

    Usually around 4-6" but I've found coins nearly a foot deep. Age doesn't seem to be a factor either. I've found newer clad dimes at 7-8" and found wheat pennies from the early 1900s at 2" below surface. It is very addicting once you start to learn how to use the detector properly.

    And yet anther hobby....

    There is some very, very fine gold in a few creeks around here but I don't think anyone has ever found anything larger than "dust" lol. One of dad's friends ran a small plant all summer on a creek on his property one year and mined a little over an ounce. It was a heck of a lot of work for...

    They minted 1916-1945 when they were replaced by the roosevelt dime. "Mercury" comes from the winged hat liberty is wearing that makes her look like the Roman god Mercury.

    And yet anther hobby....

    My wife says I'm as varied as the wind direction...I say I simply can't sit still or stay inside too long! Anyways, my son wanted a metal detector for Christmas because he saw someone on YouTube find something cool with one. I broke out my old one and started poking around the yard off our...

    Prayers please..UPDATE

    The city administrator that I work with, Tyler, suffered a brain hemorrhage this morning and is currently in a coma. The doctors can't operate due to location, and his prognosis is not good. He needs a miracle. I've worked with many different administrators over the years, and he has been the...
