    NO insects or spring birds this year.

    We have a few different species of hawks around here. Big ones, small ones. I think the prevalent one is the Swainsons hawk. I think they have pretty much taken over from the Red Tails. We also have Magpies, Starling, Jays, tons of Robins, dove, quail, and this time of year we usually have at...

    I saw this young hawk last year scooting on the ground out in the pasture. I knew he didn’t look well. I caught him, no signs of injury so I put him or her back out in the pasture and let nature run it’s course. A couple days I found it dead. I think a concerned mama was watching me.

    Don't know about out there. Out here, both are plentiful! Also, the damn dandelions! They are off the hook this year. I noticed it last year that they seemed to be in abundance. I was told that they will go in cycles of like 4-5 years. IDK. But I know last year they were way more plentiful than...

    What's your best "MacGyver it" boat, non-boat story?

    Those are good! ^^^ I got one similar. My buddy and I were out riding our dirt bikes. We had nearly identical bikes, except his had green hand guards and mine yellow. Anyway he used to carry one of those spark plug socket/ screwdriver combo things in the crossbar pad on his bike. I had...

    What's your best "MacGyver it" boat, non-boat story?

    About 25 years ago I had a 14' Mirro-craft with an old 15hp Evinrude. A 1959 Fast-twin I think it was. It had the old pressurized tank. Anyway a friend and I took it to the upper part of the Sacramento river with the intention of just basically floating down, and pulling out several miles...

    Ruh-Roh… a new gear case may be in order

    So I’m back on this little project. Been so busy getting ready for watering season, changing/repairing sprinklers along with all the other honeydoos. Is there a rebuild kit available for these? One that comes with the necessary seals, gaskets, o-rings, etc? Like if I rebuild the top end on a...

    Ruh-Roh… a new gear case may be in order

    Ya my wife and her dog were on board. The situation could have been soooo much worse. We usually wear life jackets while under way and always have them out of the storage while fishing etc. We did neither that day. But we will %100 from now on. When I’m alone on the boat I always wear one even...
