    Exploring Grand Bayou

    I have flown over the many pipelines in this area, marsh, swamp and woods, and along highways with the guy who does aerial inspections. I've walked and skied on the pipelines in Michigan...... In La, the many little cuts in the marshes give the gators and fish a place to travel and eat. in...

    Question on cooking Crawchie southern style

    Matt, i got to a number of Door County Fish Boils. that whole FLAME UP thing started out as a way to boil the fat off the top of the pot, but soon became a way to impress the tourists from Illinois with some rural shock and awe. I was always told it was gasoline....and we saw it dumped a...

    ACR ResQlink PLB/EPIRB $237

    If you are in trouble Jack just having a bunch of guys on Choppers show up may not help that much. Maybe you could reprogram it so that the USCG would come with a helicopter or something. piper

    Hey all, need a wee favor

    Just so you all know, the book will be out in paper, 6x9 inch standard size, glossy cover and all. It will then follow in Kindle version for folks who just don't buy paper anymore. There are advantages and disadvantages either way. When i travel, my Kindle has over 400 books on it (mostly...

    ONE soup

    sometimes i make a little roux , like 2 Tbls , to thicken it up a little, makes nice gravy and then it's not a clear soup anymore. Simple is the key though. No extreme ingredients or fancy measurements. Even on a bad day I can count to ONE. piper

    And, a .50-Cal

    I got to sit about 40-feet from a fellow sighting in a 50-cal over the weekend. I did a really good job of shaking the dust off my pant's legs. The concussion wave starts at the rifle and you can SEE it pass over the grass and camp fire ashes. You can FEEL it when it hits you. Sort of...

    Another old Benjamin

    Mo.......lots of ways to graft on to an existing piece of wood. Have you thought about a nice, clean tapered joint. If your stock is walnut, then you use walnut for the addition. Make a 1:6 taper or so, CLEAN AND ACCURATE, and fit a larger-than-needed addition. Glue it carefully, and...

    Another old Benjamin

    Well, it's time to talk, I guess. I did a little trading this week and got a single owner 1963 Benjamin Model 312 pumper. It is all brass and on a nice Walnut stock. It didn't hold air or shoot when i got it, and the previous owner ( who paid $8.75 for it new! ) told me he had shot a...
