    Anybody have any experience with camping in Louisiana or neighboring states? I'm in the Baton Rouge area and I'm thinking an easy 4 hours any direction is fine for a few days, just don't know where to go. I think that would give me a lot of options, but I don't have any experience with searching for these places and all the front page searches show a bunch, but don't seem to be all that helpful. 

    I'd like to just do 3 or 4 days, easy camping not too far from wherever I can get my vehicle, but I don't want to be in the RV, family campground type places. Just walking and maybe some fishing during the day, kind of just screwing off with no purpose, other then finding some cool spots for future camps also. 

    Village Creek SP in Lumberton is not bad.   They have walk-in tent sites and RV/elect sites.  Some of the tent sites are right on Village Creek.  Its very easy to rent a canoe or kayak from one of the outfitters and do a trip down VC.

    Reminds me, way back in the day the ex and I were talking about the gays and I told her gay was nothing new, hell, Plato was gay. Her response - "Mickey's dog??"

    Wrong thread.  Would be a winner in the correct one.

    Exactly. I've been sick and ran out of cough syrup about 9pm the other night. My wife had just put the kids to bed and I asked her if she'd run to the store and get me some more. She made a face and said, "I know - and you'd go if I asked you to." I reminded her of the time I went to the store at 3am to get her crackers because her stomach was bothering her and she wanted something bland to munch on. She agreed that was a nice thing I did.

    She didn't go.

    Told me it was cold outside and I could pick some up when I went to work in the morning.

    Sounds like a coupla four hot toddies at the bar while you were out getting you some medicine would have been in order.

    Put a bunch of kids in the back of your pickup.  Give them each $5 and buy them all pizza for throwing the seed out as you drive around the food plot.

    I wouldn't recommend buying a seeder just for this plot.  See if you can rent/borrow one from a friend, or contact your local USDA conservation office.  Ours has a small drill that it rents very cheaply.

    My friends dad drank alot, as in never without an Old Milwaukee in his hand.  When I was about 12, I went to their deer lease and help spread seed for a food plot by hand over about  half an acre.  Ikey was pretty well lit by the time we were  done spreading the seed and we rode in the back of his El Camino while he did donuts to cover up the seed.   I can hear the sound of  a mildly hotrodded Chevy 350 resonating through glasspacks and Ikey hollering out  "One of you boys hand Ikey another beer"  like it was yesterday.

    Progress. We had a snafu with Harken Italy delivering the pedestal, but I think we've gotten that sorted well enough to stay on schedule. They also had a heater break, so that set us back on the hull, but they flopped the labor to the deck, so hopefully that's a wash.

    I didn't go back in the thread so I don't know if you've posted about it before, but is this a boat owned by a racing consortium/crew  you are part of or is it yours personally?    All those vac bagged CF parts seem to add up to the most Surly 1%er thing posted on this place.  Looks awesome.

    While drinking with a female friend last night for New Years we run into one of her friends and her friends’ new bf. They have a few drinks with us and then go to the dance floor. While watching them, my female friend leans over to me and says, “if she fucks the same way she dances I feel sorry for that guy.”

  7. Friends and family gathered, the dinner was cooked, the games were played,  fireworks popped and New Years toasted in.  I'm now nursing 3 fingers of scotch while doing a little light cleaning and jamming to Marcus King's Soul Insight album.  2019 is starting good.

     

     

  8. I mostly drink beer or have a scotch every once in a while but have started building up a small bar for entertaining over the holidays.  Over the last month or so I've had a run buying bourbon and so far I've got Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, Angels Envy, OF 1920 and found an EHT Small Batch & SiB yesterday.  Store also had a Old Rip Van Winkle under the counter for $400 but that`s a little too expensive for my budget.

    But was the eBay one local?  Because 85 lbs costs a few dollars to ship. 

    But if i got this one, we would have matching nightstands -  what went through wife's head about 15 seconds after reading Coyote's text

    Please tell me you climbed up on the dock with your robe, boots, and a fur hat.

    You proceeded with the job w/o the quote   a signed contract?  Oh boy.  You're screwed either way. 

    FIFY

     

    And your friend got 5X more area and probably the thicker footings too for less that your original invoice.  I think your high end is that $2700-3000 and that with is with them doing everything.  

    Its stupid to do it after the fact but you could get a couple of other quotes and use those for reference to negotiate.

    Anyone have any luck fishing for rainbow trout when TDPW stocks them? I’ve tried the river just past the dam at Canyon Lake and cant catch one to save my life. Tried rooster tails, salmon eggs, and a bunch of other crap with no luck.

    Find an urban/community pond where they are stocking.  Fish it the first few days after stocking. Use something stupid like cream corn or salmon eggs.  That's how I've the stocker's caught before.
