    2024 Garden!

    What's rain? Can't depend on rain so it's hand watering most evenings. I have hoses all over.

    2024 Garden!

    last 3 mornings have been a killer. 3 days of 30*. Heaters in 3 greenhouses and frost blankets on 2 beds outside. Saved the corn and cantaloupe and cucumbers. It didn't hurt to cover the plants with dirt and the blankets. Uncovered the plants during the day. Have small hoop houses with plastic...

    Gals, how did you learn to hunt?

    What all of you like about big game hunting is what my husband is all about trapping. We trapped hard in our younger days. Lived out of a camp trailer and usually home one day a week to put hides in freezers and wash cloths and restock groceries. When he started elk hunting he hit it just like...

    Gals, how did you learn to hunt?

    Raised in a hunting family. Can remember helping dad skin deer at a very young age. I think I was more in the way than helping. Shot my first deer at 12(that was the age you could start hunting way back then). Married a guy who is a trapper first and foremost and I slowly drug him into deer...

    2024 Garden!

    Nice gardens everyone! Just now have corn, carrots, beans and so forth popping out of the ground. Cooling off this weekend and night temps headed into the upper 30's for a couple of nights. Will have to get the frost blankets out and cover. Potatoes are up and doing good so far. Tomatoes in the...

    Season prep has gone to the extreme

    Had my right hip done. It's a nice relief to be out of pain. Main thing is follow the doctors orders. Walk and walk afterwards is usually what they tell you to do. I haven't been lucky enough to find a horse someone would let me ride. But do ride a ATV and don't have problems. ATV actually...

    2024 Garden!

    Freezing temps right now and extremely windy next couple of day. It'll be another 1.5 months before anything can go in the garden outside. Just built another greenhouse 16 x20. Just waiting on the polycarbonate panels to come in to finish up. I do have garlic poking up. Have 4 cucumbers up in...

    Tracked Atv

    We have tracks for Defender. They are terribly hard on the front end. They don't float as well as you would think. If you want to travel and make time they are not the way to go. The tracks seem to work better on ATV's than UTV's. But you need a lot of cc's to use them. They are fun somewhat but...

    2024 Garden!

    I was thinking along those lines too 48 hours ago. Seven new inches of snow in the last 24 hours. Temps going back to single digits of a night for a while. Just figure June is the time to plant here (outside) and don't try to push it. Had a killing frost last year in the middle of June. I'll...

    Grain bin questions?

    If you have a tractor with a front end bucket and it can reach good height put a chain on it and drop down through the top and then chain a tire to the chain and you can lift the whole granary up and move it to a trailer to be moved. We did one that way and moved it about 5 miles or so. Then you...

    Ankle Replacement Surgery

    Age 6 jumped off a rock landed with right foot bent under. Pulled all the ligaments. Then the doctor bent the foot up that was a killer. Spent 6 weeks in a cast. Wore the bottom out and they put more plaster on and made it heavier. That could have been the start of my ankle problems. Also...

    Ankle Replacement Surgery

    Wildebeest, you are right a fusion. They wanted to also put in a cadaver tendon to help with the fusion. Thanks but no thanks. I might have weak ankles but they are the only joint still working on their own. 2 knees, 1 hip and a right shoulder. Running out of joints to replace.

    Snow, plow, snow, plow, repeat

    belshawelk just be thankful you have a tractor and bucket. I have a 25hp Branson tractor with a small bucket. Yeah it gets old but beats the ol' shovel. We didn't get anything out this last go around. Just below temps. I'm quite happy about not having to go out and push snow around.

    The January Topic: KUIU vs Sitka!

    Prefer First Lite wool Kuiu prices Sitka durability Love all of it for the warmth and lightness. Doesn't matter which what or why long as I can get a good price on it.
