  1. I was. My quarterly visit to check in on Mom. Got back to Alaska on Friday the 12th.
  2. It’s been chilly here the last few mornings…low 40’s One of the first signs of Fall are the high bush cranberries starting to ripen and it’s leaves turning red Might be an early Winter
  3. I know and I am. He's really proud of himself when he brings something home. The problem is more often then not they are still somewhat kicking when he gets home and I end up having to break their necks then dispose of the carcasses. He wont eat the squirrels and the rabbits are full of worms in the summer time. Country dog doing country dog things.
  4. Oh, we have a major vole problem. They are everywhere. They stay out of the cabin in the summer, but in the winter I set an extensive trap line. He’s been a vole hunter for years, the rabbit and squirrel killings are new. After I get up in the morning and feed him I let him out and he goes on his daily patrol. He’s usually gone for 45 min to an hour. Lately he’s been bringing back his trophies. I wish he’d just bury them out in the woods.
  5. Magnum has developed into a straight up killer in his middle age. Eight-ish years old and he’s bringing home voles and squirrels and rabbits.
  6. We refer to that as "The Wolowitz" in our household. In the parlance of our times, it slams and goes hard.
  7. Jay’s BBQ Shack, Abilene. Solid as always. Good brisket and ribs. House made jalapeño and cheese sausage is as good as I’ve ever had. Not pictured, jalapeño corn and hatch green chili mac and cheese. Both very good. Best Q in Abilene imo
  8. Wildfire about a mile from the entrance to Denali NP, right across the Nenana River from the tourist area. Apparently the tourists are freaking out on facebook. Sent to me yesterday, smoke jumpers landing and the fire which is right around Horseshoe Lake
  9. Jeff Bingham Adam (Northern Exposure) Lt Col Henry Blake
  10. Inside of the front door to our cabin. That sign has been keeping the summer sun at bay going on 14 years. He will be missed.
  11. Knights in White Satin by the Moody Blues makes me want to kick a puppy. I fucking loathe that god damn song. I also can't stand The Beatles. Their entire catalog is shit for me, but especially the bubble gum pop they started out with. I Want to Hold Your Hand gives me an instant headache.
  12. It’s Africa hot. Tarzan couldn’t take this kind of hot.
  13. It's 83 fucking degrees here and I'm fucking dying. Had to take a ride in the truck so I could get some AC. I'm going to have to run the generator all night for a fucking oscillating fan. Shit's not right.
  14. I almost cross posted the pic in the other thread 😂
  15. Seen more bears this year already than I saw the last two years combined.
  16. Holy water on the brain and I'm losin' sleep Holy Bible on the night stand next to me As I'm raped by another monkey circus freak Tryin' to take my indigence away from me, from me yeah Holy water is rustin' me, yeah Holy water is rustin' me, is rustin' me, rustin' me Bloody murder is the best I've heard her scream Holy devil in the flesh some might believe And they take thine majesty so seriously 'Cause it's the big lies more likely to be believed, believed Yeah, holy water is rustin' me Yeah, holy water is rustin' me, is rustin' me Rustin' me, yeah Damn the water if its life, you want to drink Mind your mother if it makes you feel at ease As you're raped by another monkey circus freak 'Cause its the big lies are more likely to be believed, believed Yeah, holy water is rustin' me Yeah, holy water is rustin' me Yeah, holy water is rustin' me, is rustin' me Rustin' me Rustin' me Rustin' me, yeah Rustin' me
  17. Anal Palomino
  18. My maternal grandfather gave me two pieces of advice when I was young. Never trust a Baptist minister, and it’s not wrong to kill someone who needs to be killed. Kinda thought the two were related, but he died before I could confirm.
  19. This is sort of incorrect. While black bears are more timid and easier to scare away, if they do engage you they will maul you to death. You can play dead with a brown bear and there is a good chance they stop attacking you. If being mauled by a black bear you fight for your life because they aren't stopping until they rip you open. Black bears are actually more dangerous than grizzlies.
  20. No puppy pics of Magnum, he was a rescue. Here are a couple when he first got to the woods and one from last winter.
  21. Horseshoe Lake Denali NP
  22. June 1. The official beginning of tourist season. The shoulder season crowd, seasonal workers and early birders looking for cheaper travel deals, have been here for a month. The RV’s are starting to roll in so here’s a game we play to soothe the local rage when getting behind one of them meandering at 30 mph down the highway or stopping in the middle of the road to gawk at a scraggly molting cow moose munching on leaves on the side of the highway… Put Anal in front of whatever their trailer, fifth wheel, or drivable behemoth is named. My favorite so far this year…Anal Rustler.
  23. It's like a cow with a cracker on either side.
