I lived off the land when I was a youngster. I used to have several dogs that would run the rabbits in a weed patch. I would stand off a trail with a board, when the rabbit came running down the trail, wacko. When I went home with 4 rabbits, my mother told my dad, it's time to get the boy a gun, don't you think? I ended up with a 4-10 over and under. Enjoyed every moment of it. Did a lot of rabbit hunting, pheasant hunting, and quail hunting. At that time, a deer was never herd of where I grew up, just 30 miles from where I live now. You had to drive down to southern Illinois to hunt deer. Later in my life I got married to a wonderful women. She would cook anything I brought home, and boy, could she cook. I also raised 2 boys on wild game and to this day, when they come home they ask for some kind of wild game or fish. Cheeper at the store? I don't know about that but, how about all those chemicals your putting into your body. Good for you, I don't think so. Wild game has to be taken good care of the moment you get it. Properly taken care of makes a wonder meal. Bashan, I like your comment. A grocery store, that's where I buy salt and pepper. LOL'S

I haven't had a good rabbit hunt in years. Make a rabbit trap out of milk crates. Cut out one end and make a trap door and channels for the door to slide in. string to a trip and bunny with no shot. Oh Yea.

A person I know that retired goes around to as many auctions that he can. I know!!!! Well anyway, yesterday he told me about a scooter that was at one of the auctions that was held last weekend. He said that there was a scooter there that sold for $100.00 . He also said that the scooter didn't run and he didn't know if he could find the parts ot fix it. So he didn't bid on it. I asked him what kind was it and how many cc's. He said it was an INDiAN and didn't know how many cc's. See, I missed again.

Great idea Alley, there's nothing more anoying than ridding behind someone that has their turn signal on. I have been the culprit too. Look down and see that your turn signal is on and you wonder how long it's been flashing. Oh crap, not again......

I have the same trunk in the large size and it works great. It will hold 2 helmets and I can slip a sweatshirt in with 1 helmet with no problem. I've had mine over a year now and it hasn't bounced off yet.

Congrats CC. Best of Show? Wow. With all the trouble you had, it still looks like you had a good time. Now was this held on the east side or the west side of the river? Above or below TMI ? About how many scoots were entered ? As your pictures show that there were several different makes and models. Sorry I couldn't make it, but that's how things go. Any dates for next year?

Wow Jon, Very sorry about your mess. LMAO..... , sounds like your going to make a worm shocker. Made one of those when I was a kid. Wet the ground and drive in those 2 rods and pluger in and wait for 20 minutes. Unplug the cord go out and start picking up the worms. ....When you do this, keep the animals in the house cause they will YIP when they hit the wet spot till they find the dry ground. Chicken wire weighted ( FLAT) around the base of your house for about a week. When the skunks come back and realize that they have no more home, they will go find another somewhere else.

Anyone who lives in the country should know if you have any holes that go under your house, they should be blocked off. Now skunks are nocturnal, just wait until an hour or 2 after dark then block off the entrance. Problem fixed.... HA HA ha ha ha ha and many more HA's HA'S

I'll check with the local trapper and see what he uses to get rid of the great smell that a skunk releases. He would know. He sells the scent glands...... WOW!
