41chevy Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Nice country. What are coon feeders? Out on our farm they're Ruger 10-22's Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40511-my-travels-today/#findComment-293638 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyGunner Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Take an old tire still mounted on a wheel, lay it on its side and cut inch and a half holes in the side wall with a hole saw then fill it with 3way cob mix. Keeps the coons away from farms and decent hunting for my dogs during the warm months. Kind of a win win I think. 1 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

HeavyGunner Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 I know it, I read other dogs thread on his travels and couldn't imagine driving in all that traffic. On the other hand im hour(s) away from lots of conveniences. Until recently the closest Wally World was 96 miles away one way. Now there is one 60 miles away one way, but I wouldn't trade the peace and seclusion for nothing. 2 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

other dog Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I've only been to Montana one time. That was in January a few years ago and I remember thinking then that it was the prettiest place i'd ever seen.I get into some traffic, but it's not usually too bad. I do most of my running across West Virginia and Western Pa. We've got guys that run northeast all the time, to D.C, Baltimore, N.Y, N.J. Ct, etc. Now that I couldn't handle, but they like it.

Popular Post HeavyGunner Posted June 23, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2015 Was on my way to get some gas for the boat and go fishing when I spied this nice Mack. Don't hardly ever see Macks out here so grabbed my wife's camera and snagged a few pics. 7 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.
