Jim, I'd like to put in my order right now for a turkey for next year.
I'll also take a couple of quarts of whatever types of berries you intend to grow.
I'll also take a litre of maple syrup and a couple of pints of that amazing maple butter you gave me a few years ago. :thumbsup:

Mornin all!

News flash.
Authorities near Toronto have uncovered an alleged plot by the Bermuda gang to hang empty beer cans on citizens snowmen.
A vast quantity of empty cans have been recovered.
A prosecutor asked if charges would be filed said the case is still underway , but that so far no other evidence of the alleged plotting has been proven.
"If you see these men in your yard " (the prosecutor is quoted as saying) " do not approach them. Call the authorities immediately.
We believe the lack of snow thwarted their timing. Forensics in collaboration with the Transit Commission are testing samples of cans found near a bus terminal.
Some duct tape has also been recovered".
A transit commission representative who declined being named stated , "we can't have a beer can taped to a bus. It would decrease fuel efficiency drastically..
Also ,any adds depicting beer must be flush with the surface of the bus".

Asked if the gang had even paid for advertising the rep stated , "No , but there has been a contention with them over long term transit subscriptions and costs, (these folks seldom drive ,and we support that, due to their often near , inebriated state) and they have insisted the long term expenses they have incurred in using our transportation entitles them to painting a pair of Bermuda shorts on the bus used for pub crawls. Or ,previously used for pub crawls. With pubs restricted in use today ,the gangs near sobriety is suspect in their becoming embolden and acting out.
To repeat what the prosecutor said , if you see these men in your yard , do not approach them. Ring up a constable".

And now to the weather.
Snow is predicted between now and January!
Everyone should prepare now.
Hats , mittens , coal, carrots, scarves , brooms , and sticks for snowfolks arms are expected to be in short supply before the snow is five foot deep.

Ah, I am betting that was a good dinner, also! My 100% Polish mother never fixed them. As a matter of fact, I didn’t know about them until I was in my 30’s and the Russian exchange student we had made them for us.

I did it!

I did NOT feel like going out hunting today. I haven't been seeing any deer, and not to mention that we have a 300+ lb. bear roaming the woods now. So yeah, I didn't feel like walking all the way to the back of my property to see nothing and get mauled by a bear. But I went anyway, and I brought pencils and a sketch pad. Talk about good attitude! I sat in the stand for about an hour, sketching out soldiers, and then I heard footsteps to my right. I saw a deer moving through the brush, and believing it was a doe, put the pad on my lap, put the pencil in my mouth, and looked through the scope to see what it was. All I saw were antlers. As I was looking through the scope, I hear CLING! CLANG! DING DING! My sketch pad fell onto the metal stand! The deer didn't even look. I went into panic mode, fumbling with the safety (this is my first year ever rifle hunting) and trying to find him in the scope. He went behind a tree, and when he came back out, I shot. I was so focused on loading another round, that when I looked up, the deer scared the living daylights outta me by running straight towards me! I spit the pencil out, and tried aiming again, but he flew past me and I heard him crash later on.

At first, we couldn't find any blood. Zero. Hell, I didn't remember where the deer was standing. It happened so fast, I didn't even record any detail in my memory. How could I have missed? Finally, by random chance, my mama found one splotch of blood. One. Uno. Ein. We looked forever, but eventually we found him really close to the stand, crumpled up. He made a circle and we didn't know it. It's a beautiful nine pointer, and definitely mountable. I was shocked. I didn't even know what I hit. I thanked God profusely, and helped my dad drag it back. It weighs 200 lbs. field dressed.

Thank you God!

Good going Rusty! I've gone out with my grandpa and dad plenty of times but never shot one myself. Mostly just because I don't want to gut it... let's just say I have a sensitive nose and weak stomach haha.

Hey, hey, hey! Another Ohioan! Welcome aboard ARC’s ship, Noah D.
(That sounds ironic to me)

I never heard about this WD. :icon_scratch:

Now, if they'd actually gone ahead with this, I can just envision a sea of snowmen being made all over the city. :laughing7:

Oh Dave I wish it was true-but you'z turn blue from the prices of the organic raised bird. I think we paid $5/6 a pound for the turkey last yr. Now the sucker 23lb was a bird bird-so was the bill.
Ah the berries will be a few years off yet-just planting the patch.
AH the Maple Syrup-the nectar of Mother Nature Herself-I'm thinking i'll still be consuming the reserves as the time will be limited this next spring.

It seems that not many producers are doing Turkeys-why-because they eat way too much food=consumers don't/can't justify the cost of buying one.
Sure the local box grocery store has the freezer burnt utility birds on for a buck a pound-folks think that they still taste great.
That's fine, it's all about the price of food-it's not up on the high priority rung in life.

Really what would a meal be if a can opener and microwave weren't invented. :icon_scratch:
 

I was just looking at the same article on the weather channel link. I was trying to find the right link to post up-I don't do the "Fox" and all the other links only had one pic in the article.
Thanks for the post up Dave.

Although, you've probably already heard about this. :laughing7:
