Good morning everybody.

Fair tip: Chocolate dipped bacon is a delicious fair snack. BIL made me try it 4 yrs ago. Not too filling like fried dough snacks. Satisfies sweet craving and super rich so you won't want too much. 1 strip on a stick does the trick. I introduced my buddy Jake to it yesterday and he agreed, "it has a salted caramel like flavor."

If you haven't tried it, do so if you have the chance.

 

Morning all. Took 4 cans of off road diesel over to the cabin yesterday, did not mow. Sinuses were kicking my tail, so took a day off from it. Kind of nice to just ride around in the gator and appreciate.... well everything! My stress level is in the negative numbers @ this point. Old timer @ work years ago told me Friday is appreciation day. You stand around and appreciate all of the work you did the last 4 days! Happy Friday!

 

Oh yeah, fried peanut taters with bacon ranch dip are always a favorite. Jake and I with 1st snack of the fair.

PRO-TIP: park at yellow gate by livestock barn...you get to taters quickest.

 

Yum looks good!

 

I like


@MoneyMan55 Still looking for tires?
I just saw an ad for Goodyear, buy 3, get 1 fee, use their credit card and get $120.00 rebate.

 

They are delicious!

 

Tires are to be delivered around noon today. Hopefully they can install this afternoon. Thanks

Will do

 

One main purchase I wanted to make at Fair this year was a good knife sharpening system that was simple to use and packable for the field, yet versatile for multiple applications (hatchet/scissors/chisels/etc) in addition to knives. Settled on the Spyderco "TRI-ANGLE SHARPMAKER."

Good morning and TGIF

 

Good Morning Folks

 

Good morning. Got a bad case of the don't give a chits today.

I'll second that, tis good stuff. Heritage pork vendor at the farmers market in town sells it but he sells out fast. As a back up there is another stall down from him that sells deep fat fried Twinkies on a stick. Great, now thinking I need to go the farmers market in the morning

Over the years have tried all types sharpeners but end up going back to a stone which is what I grew up with. Hope that one works out for you Rob!

Over on a 16 gauge site we are putting together a group buy for a Case Trapper Sportsman. Not that I need another knife, especially a $100 one. The trapper would not be my first choice but it is what it is. Still undecided on which game scene to get they don't have a grouse to pick from



But at least the backside logo looks like it will be the one I want, B.1

However in the poll for the swipe black instead of purple is winning. Bunch of silly old goats, 16 ga. anything should be purple. Cause purple shells.

 

Been there lived that fer years
