    Ukraine / Russia

    Maybe the Kennedy's Joe Sr., John, Robert, Edward, Joseph, Patrick, Ted Jr. And for short while, and at the same time, the President, Attorney General, and Senator all named Kennedy were in office at the same time. I understand this would not be an easy task, but I agree, even if it is...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Surrounds him--or makes ALL the decisions for him ? Would you like to believe that the platform and the man you voted for actually believes , and more importantly understands what his platform is and therefore can present it properly when given the opportunity . We, actually prefer to...

    Mountain Lions!

    I have mentioned to those in my family that I want to take that Amazon trip and stay in the tree house you spoke about in a different thread . To date I have only seen the Mountain Lion, but I hope someday to see the Lion and Leopard in Africa and the Jaguar in Brazil. We heard them at night...

    Ukraine / Russia

    And his mental capabilities or lack of them is noticed by people from both sides of the isle, as well as different ages in the recent conversations I have had with people. And is it not just the 20/30 years olds who have noticed it and are concerned about it. People of all ages and...

    If you only wanted one animal mounted, what would you choose?

    Marco Polo Stone Sheep Ibex My grandfather told me that Weatherby had a 12 ft Polar Bear in their store in California. That would certainly get someones attention when they walked into a room

    Mountain Lions!

    They seem to be increasing in numbers in Texas, especially in West Texas. Horses reacting to them is the only reason I have seen some of them. When backtracking one day, I noticed one had followed us and neither the horse or I knew it. We have also hunted them, which can be a very exhausting...

    Ever run into bad guys while hunting?

    My father and I saw two bodies in the Rio Grande when fishing. I was threatened once when horse back riding. He wanted the horse. The dog I had with me scared him and we rode away. But never threatened when hunting

    Define backcountry

    I think my definition, and the word I use is "wilderness" Wilderness to me is someplace you float plane into. A small lake that is not accessible by any roads and it would take a week or more to hike to it. I also have used the word when we plan a horse back trip into the wilderness that...

    Engraving/doubles/drilling/Africa

    I agree ! If ---- Secret of Artemis sold by Ludwig Borovnik---- upsets you, then you should not visit the Louvre Museum. I have seen this before and it is a beautiful double. Since it is only produced in one caliber, the 9.3 x 74, and looking at the thread name, April probably was...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Thank you and if you dont mind would you please answer this question, which was asked today.. Why did Ukraine not join Nato ? Also, back to your above post. Even if everything you say comes to pass, do you think Finland and/or Sweden will join Nato, regardless of what Germany and France might...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Thank you Dave, I had read that also which is why I said their nuclear threat, rings hollow. I can not help but wonder if Finland and Sweden do join Nato ( and I think they will ) if Russia will regret invading Ukraine . IMHO, they probably already do. I am sure they thought it would go a...

    Who chambers, 6.5x55 or 6.5-284 in a rifle

    my attempt at humor failed I am afraid As far as available ammo, you are correct, even here in Alaska. Same when I am in Texas. You are correct.

    Who chambers, 6.5x55 or 6.5-284 in a rifle

    Well being a young woman I dont care what anyone else uses or thinks about what I use, but I also like the Swede ;) Look at the Mauser M12's they have 5, Swede caliber models, to choose from -

    Ukraine / Russia

    and Russia threatening to move nukes close to their border with Finland rings hollow and I dont believe that threat will stop Finland and Sweden from joining.

    Funny Autocorrect/Autotype Stories

    My grandparents played a trick on me. My grandfather sent a text to my grandmother. GNOC. My grandmother ask me what it meant and I told her it was either a mistake in typing on my grandfathers part or the stupid phone printed something different than what he meant to say. ( although I knew...

    Back country for you old farts out their

    My grandparents played this for me in the past and one of the things they saw in the video and then talked about was the Oldsmobile. They talked about an Oldsmobile convertible they had in the 1950's. I showed them this thread and the comments and this video you posted brought a smile to...

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    I agree and it transcends generations . My grandparents, parents and myself. Thank you. We/I may be wrong but we feel the land and the improvement costs will not be lost. Even the inventory ( cattle and horses ) should be able to be sold at cost, with no loss. The time and effort that I put...

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    Sorry, I did not respond to one part of your original post/question Of course, start up costs will depend on many different factors, so I will only address what I (we - family ) are thinking. We would prefer to buy land with no structures, as I am young and do no need a fancy house ( which...
