Friendship, In

It's time again for the spring shoot and flea market in Friendship In. I've been going down ther for about 20yrs. You can see or buy about anything. Taunya, Bub, and I went down for the weekend and as usual had a good time. A trip is not complete without a stop at the Friendship Inn fpr a drink and sumpin' good to eat. Bought some leather, like always, and a moose anter for carving. Saw some old friends and had some laughs too. I swear, I have see the same stuff at the same booths for years. They never sell it, just bring it down every year. See you there sometime

Clifton Mill and Gorge

Bub and I went to Clifton Mill and Gorge in Yellow Springs Ohio today. It was a rainy day and we just had to get out of the hotel. It was cool. Ohio has several nice gorges for the midwest, Old Man Cave is also neat.

South Africa

Taunya and I just returned from a 10 day African safari. It was the most wonderous thing I have ever seen and done. Our host at Thorndale Safaris couldn't have been more gracious. The're friend Maxie gave Taunya a behind the scenes look at their cheetah farm and let her play with a 9 week old lion cub, too cute. Me, I was whackin' and stackin' Blesbok, Kudu, Impala, Springbok, Duiker, and Bush Pig. The bush pig hunt was in the Kouga Wilderness area 300km south of the ranch. It was very steep rugged area, and ironically orange growing area. The lodge was luxurious and we had it all to ourselves. The last night was a meat hunt for the locals, I like to help anyway I can, and did with 2 kudus, a duiker, and a porcupine.

Baby Squirrel

Today I noticed Bubby stareing at something at the door, a baby squirrel. As I was taking pictures the little guy decided to come in. Lucky Bub was more curious than mean, and was able to pick the litle guy up without getting bit. Took a few more pictures and then placed him in a tree. Just never know.

Cook out

Saturday was so nice we had Jeff and Tony over for 151rum chicken and bacon fried geen beans. Notice the flames from the 151, Tony is in the red shirt.
