I have done that!
My stihl 800 backpack blower will move some pretty deep frozen stuff?
My daughter's view this morning from Newport, TN.
Sunset. No filter.

We got a dusting from that front this afternoon as well, but it quickly melted away from the ground still being warm from 70 yesterday.
I didn't think the oaks were going to show much color this year, but after the rain and brief snow they seemed to make an attempt as the sun tried to show up at quitting time.

Have had the wolves howling across the river for the last 24 hours. Due to a strange freezeup, the ice has jammed up above us and left us with an open channel that takes much longer to freeze. I can get across, it just requires about a 30 mile ride. Anyway, works was in the way today, but I had time to do some calling this afternoon. The “monster” came along to help but went looking for squirrels when they weren’t answering back. Never got them to come out onto the river across the channel. The far side of the open channel is 625 yards. The river is almost a mile wide heat this point.
Hahahahaha! Hardly. ?
ol’ Mr. London actually had a pretty poor reputation during his time up here. Seen mostly as a free loader “hippie” type for that era. He‘d stay and mooch until folks kicked him out and sent him on down the trail where he’d rinse and repeat. However, I will say, reading Call Of The Wild and White Fang as a child were certainly catalysts for my ending up where I am.

Today, I was trying to watch Terminator 1.
This was my view.
Daddy,
You have my ball, please throw it...
I think she believes she's a mountain goat.

I see a LOT of goofy shit out on the road, but this guy is in desperate need of some AirPods ...
Looking across field and trees, about 1/2 mile off from here on the crest of the ridge, to the west of the house. We were on our way back from an appointment and the moonrise and the sky color were striking.
Nah, bruh!
That's just what happens to nature when one party Democratic rule comes to your Commonwealth.
Been that way in MA forever. They turn everything into Mordor.
A little gray out today.
I had some coffee on our bedroom deck this morn.
We start the Podocarpus by seed and then step them up to 3 gl.

your cold bore shot was really cold, fuck that snow, lol
Dang!
A thumper!!
A thumper!!

lol, funny you just chimed in Moose. Pat "M" and I were just talking about you, nothing good, just before I ran down to Chen's.....
We were talking bout that Half uh Buck found behind his place......
Ah yeah, well I have figured out a little more about the buck. Turns out it wasn’t a cougar. The buck was gut shot and coyotes got to it. That almost pisses me off more then it being a cougar kill.
Edited my post after I read yours.

Yeah it is, that is a trophy buck for around here.That's fucked up......
@1J04 has it right.. almost. It is a 358win, I’m running 250gr soft points though ?
It’s a Montana 1999 action. Barrel is a Douglas 1-10” and an accuracy innovation stock with the aluminum bedding block. 1-6 Gen2 razor I just picked up at vortex.
It shoots 1/2” 3 shot groups at 100yrds more often than not too!
Gut shot and left is way worse IMAO.
Guy may have tracked it, may have shot, looked 15 min and moved on.
It happens where something goes wrong, guy looks for an inordinate amount of time, and still cant find.
happened to me once. Found cat tracks and a lot of blood, as well as drag marks. I didnt follow them.....
At least cats are just nature doing their thing.
I once found a skeleton, including skull and really nice rack, dragged up under a medium sized downfall and kinda hidden.
Wildlife guys said that was a cat for sure and they were very active in that area.

This gun is what made me look into building my own suppressors. That has been a whole separate rabbit hole in itself
Made some major dents in the honey-do home projects this week; replaced light fixtures, tiled a bathroom floor, small stuff. Suggested to the Child Bride I'd be gone for a couple of hours this afternoon, she said have fun.
Headed out to the 900 yd rocks hoping the soil had firmed up some. Sure enough, good ground. Overcast, 32 degrees, 10-15 wind from the NE. Set up and proceeded hammer the big rocks.
Wind at 900 was .4 mils right, blowing right in my face. Had to take a break after 20 rounds to let my watering eyes dry out. Spent several shoots trying to dislodge a softball size rock, no luck. 30 rounds total
Somebody filled a tag.
Left the heart, lazy stiffs. Good day, plan on the same tomorrow AM.
On a different note, this last Wednesday we had consult with our oncologist and learned the Child Bride is medically in remission. 10 months, 10 day journey to this point. There were some quiet tears shed.
Life is good.

Thats great news! Glad you got a little shooting time in. I may go do a a little .22 rifle shooting from 25-125 yds on Sunday depending on what the little lady has up her sleeve.
So, guy owns a small brewery in Denver. Brewed at home for 20 yrs or so with Kendrick’s dad before opening shop.
ran a special.
32 oz can. $10. Proceeds to the STEM school Robotics Team.
Im still impressed by this young man. If we ever get a governor with nuts and a soul, I think we should name a big chunk of highway the Kendrick Castillo Freedom Expressway.
dangit. Stuff is suddenly all blurry......
