2016

Here we go again.........

 

Morning all:
Darn, all caught up and should be out hunting! It's a nice warm 33 deg., but supposed to drop into the teens next week----BURRRR!

Welcome btrokc! Neat toys!!!!!!

 

morning Boys Happy New Year

 

Last hunting trip just before Christmas. In KS with new Tacoma. Hunters are my son, grandson and grand daughter and our 3 French Britneys.

 

Great looking family and well done on you for getting them out chasing phez! And good looking Epagneul Breton's too. Heard Kansas finally rebounded this year. I wasn't able to make my annual trip to North Central SD this year with a handful of other retired military guys but my friends that did go said the count was way down from the early hail storms. Did make 3 one week trips hunting ruff grouse on the North Shore of Lake Superior with a new pup though. I have a friend in Silver Bay, Mn. that hunts 3 FB also, great dogs.

 

We hunted SW KS on opening day last two years and had great luck. The quail are also back in OK this year. But dove were down over last year. Annual goal is to get dove, duck, quail, pheasant and turkey. Are you also retired military.

 

In SD we just do pheasant except for the Cdr. who is a resident, he lives in Spearfish so gets to hunt waterfowl every year. Waterfowl is a lottery system there and I got drawn finally, but couldn't make it this year. Because of the mild weather the ducks really hung up in Canada until late this year anyhow.

Yes retired Navy, there are quite a few retired military on here. There are 2 retired AF in the 50's thread, I have 2.5 years to go until 60 but your picture of family, dogs and phez pics were hard for me to resist .

The 4 core of us that hunt SD for 2 weeks are Navy and another group of 4 Air Force that cycle through, and even a Coast Guard.

 

well the fire works are going off tonight

 

Evening all:
Calm down Sue!
Why tonight, should be just after midnight last night?

 

only when the firecrackers stop and the girls calm down... was raining last night....

 

We need a chat room. Up sick as hell. Bored out of my mind. I need to rest but no go.
So I'm surfing and coughing.

 

Morning all:
Hoping you start feeling better soon Mike.

 

Morning All. Hope everyone had a great New Years Eve. Sorry your felling under the weather Mike, hope you feel better as the day goes on.
Have a good day all.

 

Morning everyone and Happy New Year!! Long time no talk!!

I hope you are feeling better, Mike!!

Not much has changed here - although Lynn retired in September. She will start doing some consulting but is planning on expanding her flower growing business.

Our "little" pup is no longer little. She's 8 months old now.



And, here is a family shot from our early Christmas with our son and his family.

 

Congratulations to Lynn on her retirement Mark, best of luck to her in her endeavors. Glad you and the family had a good Christmas. Always nice to have the Grand kids around. They sure can make a Holiday Happy. Hope you all have a great New Year.

 

Mike,

Hope you feel better soon. You live in a beautiful state which I enjoyed visiting.
