    Fireplaces & Firewood

    Two guys decided to hunt Colorado for the first time. They brought canvas tents with a wood stove. As they drove up to find a camp site, they saw "an old fool" just shooting holes in a section of smoke stack, seemingly for target practice--and he was shooting all over the place. Ha, ha. Later...

    Double rifles and Elephant

    You had me at Holland & Holland 500/450! If it handles like a bird gun, that may save your life more than a little extra power. Pondoro Taylor said that a well fitting gun can perform out of all proportion to a badly fitting one.

    Deer Season 2025

    I think I would risk the cartel to shoot one like that! Low fence, too.

    "Obsolete" items that you still use

    That's a good one. I'm going to use it and not even give you credit, lol.

    Is retiring to Africa a wise decision?

    Enjoy! Whenever I make "Marry-me Chicken" I use the Tuscan spice blend. (feel free to substitute pheasant) Nice area and cuisine.

    Most expensive oak is that delivered to restaurants with oak fired ovens.

    "Obsolete" items that you still use

    They put out significant heat in the winter. In fact, one sort of between the legs can let you stay out fishing on the boat a lot longer.

    Great idea--never heard tell of that. I will share with the relatives. Thanks.

    Mind Your Manners!

    Rendering assistance to stranded boaters is a legal obligation in Texas. Rendering it to stranded motorists in the back country is good manners and the golden rule.

    Mind Your Manners!

    The world of unfenced, unfettered personal access no longer exists for many of us. Enjoy it, but know the rest of us have to put up with more complication--not by choice.

    That's the hardest working bird in Africa--shuts up mama in a hollow tree with clay with only a slit to feed her insects or for her rump to shoot out poop. He stays busy feeding her and the young until they are big enough to fly! Did you mount it?

    Some H&H doe action

    What would be a comparable caliber to the no. 2 2 1/2? Sounds like a fun cartridge.
