If it flows like that, might help. I worked in Norwich for many years and am still part of the Classic Car Museum there as a volunteer/Board member.

I knew old guys very good with a .410 or 28 gauge on grouse. I haven't seen a 28 gauge in decades, and they were rare then. .410 has been rejuvenated some. I was often a 16 gauge guy. Those are few and far between anymore. A Ruffed Grouse is SO fast when it flushes..... I wasn't of...

Super pictures. I used to have some similar with Pheasants, Deer, Geese, and especially Woodchucks. I was into woodchuck hunting many years ago. Hard to tell.....Left photo is an 1100 with vent rib? If so, always wanted one. Had several 870's until the tragic boat accident. 😲 Sorry for...

Does your footer drain generally run most of the time? Mine runs a couple/few days or weeks/year. Sometimes will go a year or two without flow. Might have a bearing on how you deal with the build up. Might be for the better. As far a Property/School Taxes - - I'm in New York also. I...

I'm the first to admit I've never torn a differential apart. Or better yet, put one together. They seem to part science, and part "intuition" to me. Appreciate your documentation and commentary. (y)

Good point. Introduced from Asia if I recall correctly? For many decades, our NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) operated Pheasant Farms and stocked Ring-Necks in various places. One Pheasant Farm wasn't too far from us. Always thought it odd NYSDEC raised an introduced...

Like the others, I haven't seen a pheasant in years. Had them on our house property 30+ years ago. I have some fond memories hunting wild pheasants over English Setters. One Setter was a small gal that had a hard time to get them to flush. They'd just run. She never gave up though. She did...

Yeah, the commercial Italian guys I knew typically used GP. Those were the guys I knew. Like anything, some will have other preferences. At home, of course the Mrs. is a baker and does pies. She uses GP mostly, with some exceptions like gluten-free, cake flour,etc. We haven't gotten to...

Just curiosity, what do those large square bales weigh? I think they're pretty much a standard size? See them around here, but not as much as round bales for the dairy/beef cow guys. They were LONG after my farmer days as a kid....

Oh my that looks great...... 😋 Got me thinking you don't see tri-tip much up here anymore. Used to as I recall.

George - that’s ridiculous and offensive. I take issue with that comment. If you don’t have any constructive advice…..go somewhere else. (EDIT BY POSTER TO MEET TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OTT). Point is that someone was spoofing (using illegitimately) my own phone number while calling people. I...

Dad - supper is at 5pm. It’s now 5:10pm.

Skeets - - - just like @Tractor Gal, I got a call from my own number once! I treat them all as spam calls, like the others. Same with emails, I don't click on anything.

Dan - you’re well-versed at a lot of things. I’m not surprised you’re a great cook too. Your go-to pizza sounds delicious. Got all of my favorite ingredients. Your contributions are nothing short of amazing…😋

Now THAT's a pizza! Looks super. 😋 After 8 months, bet it tasted great! What's on it?
