Oh man!!....that's a nice sight Frank,...around here we still have two feet of snow on the ground
Those pictures might motivate me to fit the 32" tubes to tha C grade a lot sooner

The taste of poor quality lingers long after the cheap price is forgotten.........

Frank: I was out to our hunt club yesterday, we are having a new well drilled. I saw a flock of 25 turkeys, the Toms were strutting big time. At least 20 deer were feeding with the turkeys. Our marsh is just unfreezing and I pushed 200 ducks, mostly mallards, pintails wigeon and woodies. As I was watching our well driller two Bald Eagles soared overhead. They must have been fishing in our marsh. The outdoor life is grand and mother nature put on quite a display yesterday. Nice pictures Frank, they are great birds.

The mosquitos in South Georgia are as bad this year I can remember. I hope it means our drought has broken. I have appreciated my Thermo-cell bug confuser so much I'd kiss the folks responsible for inventing them.

The turkeys are going full blast right along with the skeeters though, so I couldn't be happier with the situation down here...Geo

What is this thermo-cell bug confuser you speak of? Sounds VERY high-tech. Are you allowed to shoot a 100+ year old AH Fox while wearing one of these gadgets? Oh yeah...Do they cause cancer or sea sickness or future babies to have birth defects and 2 heads?
Seriously, I don't recall ever seeing one of these.

But I did see 12 turkeys in my cornfield yesterday. Just 3 more weeks and....kaaaaboooom! Got 2 last year, so I'll probably get skunked this year.

They have been everywhere here the last few days. Today we saw a whole flock of them flying over the freeway.

Ironman, if you have a skeeter problem, the thermo-cell is your salvation. Google it if you really haven't seen one. Yeah, it probably does cause cancer and birth defects, but I better be through having children anyhow. As for high-tech, do you remember the citronella spiral candles you used at the drive-in theaters? I think it fits in just fine with the BRNO sidelock I've been carrying this season...Geo

This past Wednesday, my brother looked out his back window across his creek and saw this ole boy dancing... This little creek bottom runs though his place and prior to him owning it, it was my aunts place. I cut my teeth on turkeys in this patch of woods. Our Youth Hunt is coming up and I plan to take my eldest nephew here to try his luck. Hoping he will use my L.C. Smith! He is 9 years old and his father and I are trying to instill in him the love of the outdoors/hunting/fishing, etc... Like our dad did for us. Hope to be able to post here in a few weeks a success story about him.

No turkeys hereabouts, but this morning when I got up there was a pair of mallards paddling around in my swimming pool (I have a tiny back yard surrounded by a 6-foot block wall--not a nature preserve by any means). They seemed quite content until my cat Hairy just HAD to flush 'em!
