Dont cut it down,,Apple trees can take a lot of damage and still produce apples. If we have a good year for apples,,,Im thinking we will have a good year for roadkill...i.e.  Elk, Deer.

Me too and I never measure, just throw it together...which occasionally leads to recipe 'regrettus' when I realize I left out something important.

 

I use chili sauce instead of ketchup. There's just something about ketchup in meatloaf that doesn't work for me.

 

Definitely going to try the stuffing in it next time. I'm assuming that you put it in dry?

Thats what I do too. No Ketchup for me..........ever!

I feel like this................

My friends and I used to go there to check out Girls and raise Hell. Now I have no friends, No girls.......and Im to old to raise hell.

WilmaDawg Loves  squirrels , she eats every bit except the tail. I have a picture but I will refrain from posting due to the gruesome details.

What is it with Laws? Everyone wants to have a Law passed for all kinds of things.  Then wonder why our freedom is going down the tubes. I will take care of my own Damn Dawg.

 

It's the law: Bring your pets in from the cold

 

PITTSBURGH, JANUARY 18, 2016------ 

In spring I found a dead Raccoon in back of my garage , no marks on it at all. Probably one of the above caused its demise.

I like to practice Bushcraft skills and have started fire many different ways. My Advice to all,,,,,make a Bic lighter part of your daily carry in your pocket or purse.

Yeah, I know. This one makes me nervous. I don't think I will be getting close to him to get pics. He shows up around 9ish in town & does his walk through.

I just thought of an idea to calm him down. Put on some camo, get your best kitchen knife. Hide in your yard and when he comes in..............cut his Nuts off.

Be careful there Bon, When they get aggressive like that they could be a problem.

Camera skills aside,,,,, Nice Bull!

It's a bit of an optical illusion. If the face is looking to the right, it looks like a moose. If the face is looking down and slightly left, it looks like an elk! Now, I don't know what it is!

No illusion,,,,Its a moose. 

Bon, Make sure this doesn't happen to your tree. 

 

Thats not an elk,,,its a Moose.

Nice pics! You keep em up your way Bon. For such a majestic animal , they sure have ugly bums.

I did the same thing we had some heavy duty pallets that were being thrown away so I tore them apart and used them. I did post about this last fall or in the winter I believe about making these bins it may still be on GoDuBois I will have to look. I just filled up with mushroom compost I had left over from last year and also some soil just laying around form old flower pots etc.

 

The plants are around 40" tall right now as big as the corn my wife has planted. I do have to add another board on today as you can see and finish filling it up to the board you see now. I am out of soil so may have to stop here in a bit and get some more compost I think. I could just buy bags of soil but I would need a lot as this bin is 42"x42" square.

 

If you look you can see potato's outside  the bin that sprung up long before we planted these and they are only about 24"tall

 

as you can tell I hate weeds also and weeding so the upper garden with the potatoes has newspaper layers with mushroom compost on it and the lower garden the one with the tomato's has weed cloth and mushrrom compost- horse manure on it. It may be the manure or the rain is all I can figure as to why my plants are small. Althoug since I put my pipe in the ground to support them and it has been sunny they sure have perked up quite a bit.

Ripe Tomatos????Whats your address,,I will bring zappia bread and mayo.

Things are picking up a bit. Broccoli has developed soft rot which means few side shoots. (Keeping a jar of bleach in the garden.)  Cauliflower is OK but the heads are small. What cabbage that didn't get root rot from all the rain is doing fine. All summer squashes and cuckes are just starting to develop. Plants are a bit retarded. Kale was great and a new crop of lettuce is just starting. Got beets for the first time in 5 years. I switched types and used a different fertilizer which may have helped. Corn looks great but tomato plants are small for this time of year. Green beans are just OK but yellow beans are stunted. Eggplant and peppers are doing great which is unusual. Onions and peas are doing well. Tomantillos and winter squash are super. 

Parts of the garden just were flooded with all the rain and crops that don't like a lot of moisture weren't happy. Parts of the garden that drained better fared better. Weeds are happiest of all. 

lavender,,what is the purpose of that? And why has no one crossed a weed with a tomato plant? What a crop we could have!

I didnt plant anything this year , Just didnt feel up to it. But Im wondering how everyone else has been doing with Tomatos, cukes and such in your gardens? With all the rain and lack of sunshine seems like it was a bad year.  What have you planted that is doing well?

I Choot em!

With the high cost of razor blades anymore, I use mine till it starts pulling whiskers instead of shaving them!!

Same here.

Cool, Thanks.

I drink the Gin,,,Shoot the animals and dont care about the weeds. There you go.

Tommy the toad is terribly tough

and he lives on the hill where the grass is all rough,

his skin is a lumpyish brown sort of buff

I talked to a Warden about that Bear a few yrs ago, thought they would be interested in it since it seems to be doing so well with just 3 legs, but they didnt give a crap. He hasnt been up my way yet, I was just out looking for his / her tracks,,,nothing.

I would like to feed them a 165gr bullet from my 30 06.
