  1. Looks like Dallas developer bought it and has plans for gated community and golf course.....Was listed for 110 million...https://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article272507297.html
  2. I remember fishing and camping there with you and some other crazies many moons ago. Trolling for redfish was really unique for inland freshwater lake.....
  3. Had an amazing weekend in NYC! Hamilton and Hadestown blew me away! Went to China Town for lunch today and caught the last New Year parade for the year of the Rabbit! Crazy fun! I recommend Wo Hop - 2022 James Beard award - very unsuspecting dive so authentic with an amazing array of selections on the menu
  4. Going to Hadestown tomorrow night and Hamilton on Saturday. We have dinner planned for tomorrow but still trying to decide on dinner after Hamilton on Sat - any Recs ?
  5. Yes, I am signed up. I dont think we have a chance for placing the heaviest hog which is always 350lbs or greater. We are going for the sidepots of closest to 245 lb and 285 lb.....we might have a chance at those weight categories...
  6. Classic fuzzy photo but I keep thinking it’s awful large to be a yote?
  7. I have skied Big Sky 5-6 times in last 3 years and still havent seen/skied more than 50% of the resort. Huge place - any terrain you want. Big, wide and long cruiser Blue runs if you are into that to the Headwaters terrain which can get really spicey and everything in-between. Fly into Yellowstone airport in Bozeman/Belgrade and it is about an hour drive. They have had sketchy snow the last few years but this year may be their year! Huge dumps have occurred weekly and the base is looking really awesome! It is never crowded. Being close to Yellowstone NP, we have booked side excursions to include snowmobiling in park to see Old Faithful and also backcountry skiing excursion inside of the park as well-seeing the park in the dead of winter is surreal - less animal watching but absolutely amazing contrast of scenery from the summer scene. If you stay closer to Bozeman, I love to ski Bridger Bowl - local hill that has serious terrain where most of local Bozeman skis and their are some amazing skiers there....great place to ski 20 minutes from downtown Bozeman which is why most locals choose to ski there instead of driving the Gallatin canyon to Big Sky....
  8. Wow!! Super nice! Congrats to you both!
  9. Beautiful day here! No wind and sun made it quite tolerable. Cats win big!
  10. I’m going to game tomorrow. Flew in today…high was 12 today. Should be 28 by noon and a high of 30 so twice as warm tomorrow - yeah! Pics from plane coming in to Bozeman. Bottom pic is of Big Sky Resort from the air . I’ll post some tailgating and game pics tomorrow …,
  11. Nice weekend to hunt with the cooler temps! The rut seems to have kicked in pretty good in our neck of the woods. (Hill County). My buddy shot this 10 point literally right after he pulled into our front gate on Saturday at 12 noon! I passed on several beautiful young 8 pointers that need another year or 2. I’m looking for a few 10’s we have on game cams, especially the one rubbing right behind one of our blinds- cocky sob. I really enjoyed hearing all the sandhill cranes constantly streaming overhead all weekend riding the north breeze south and yes those sunrises and sunsets were great.
  12. I cannot speak for SF as I do not ski or monitor it regularly but Taos already has had a few significant snowfalls and has nice base on its ridge and upper slopes ….I do not remember Taos having this good of a base this early in this decade. Taos also has some of the best snow making ability in the business and can get their whole front side Main blue runs open without any natural snow so a good option only 1.5 to 2 hours away if SF conditions are not good Kachina Peak today

    https://www.skithelemmon.com/ Mt. Lemmon is actually a small local ski hill....Ive never skied it, but we did visit in the summer once and it was scenic and as Mach 1 indicated, would be good for a hike...
  14. Amen I’m looking forward to some quiet time this weekend. Good luck!

  16. This gal blows me away - originality pours out of her
  17. I’m not sure the above video works so here is a bonus photo to keep the ski vibes going....
  18. Me too! (My vid but let’s go!) IMG_3148.MOV
  19. I feel fortunate to have experienced the Dallas Club Scene in the early 80’s to early 90’s during my college and post college party years. Early memories of Confettis, On the Air, Video Bar, Tangos (dancing frogs on the roof), and then the Starck Club came along and became arguably the most cutting edge and electic club that Dallas and all of Texas for that matter has ever had (I remember ecstasy was sold at the bar and the colorful characters that always hung out in the Bathroom lobby and the random crazy videos in the restrooms) Then Deep Ellum revived as I remember when it was only Club Dada and Club Clearview (I attended the initial keg parties In the original building that eventually evolved into Club Clearview after they got an official liquor license). Knox Street Pub (playing pool in back room), Stans Blue Note, Stoneleigh P, the ultra preppy Boardwalk Beach Club near SMU, 2826 in deep Ellum was rocking in the early 90’s during Texas OU weekend. Borrowed Money on Central and Cowboys on Garland Road for your urban cowboy “meat market” I know I’m missing many but it is a start photos below of Entrance to Starck Club and a few match boxes I collected over the years
  20. I’m not sure about Walt Garrison...very possible but I know for a fact Donny Gay (8 time PRCA bull riding champ) got his start there.
  21. Since this thread has expanded into Arlington, I submit Old Kow Bell Rodeo in a Mansfield...1959 -2004 - demolished around 2005 now Mansfield Legacy High school sits where Kow Bell once stood. At the time, the only indoor Rodeo in the world to have rodeos every Sat night year round. In Junior High our parents would drop us off for the Saturday night rodeo not knowing that we were actually entering the junior steer riding...My short Bull riding career ended with a kick to my chin that required stitches which ruined our whole gig when all the parents found out
  22. Speaking of Johnny Marr greatness...
