Blastin' and Castin' in the Texas Outdoors: The one that got away

Blastin' and Castin' in the Texas Outdoors

We havea lot of good times, the road was a drug when we started way back, our wheels rolled on steady, now its forgetting the race to find an open space and leaving that city far behind We’ll be up in the morning before the sun, since anything beats working on the job and everyone knows the early worm gets the fish. The world is your oyster, let the high times carry the low, walk where the sun is shining, lay your burdens down and think to yourself that it sure feels good feeling good again.

The one that got away

I set up a game cam inside the big trap just to see what my catch ratio was. I missed this one. I also seem to be being robbed by a variety of bunnies and some coons that seem to be in the 25# range. You can see the trip wire just beyond the piggy. But iffin he is to saunter in for a free meal once, I'd imagine he'll be back. Then it'll be "This little piggy went to market" instead of "this little piggy stayed home".

I imagine the trip wire has the pulleys at the corners instead of just going around the fence wire so it will pull easily.; 4:18 PM

Landowner and see iffin he might be open to the idea of buying some pannel or if he has an extra few (10 or so) setting around. Might be a way to put a few $ in our pockets. I'm pretty sure there is a buyer in Normangee.; 5:02 PM

This site was dedicated to regaling one another (and those poor bastards who stumble across this site) about ADVENTURES.

Get out there and have an adventure!! Life is too short!! Carpe Deum and all that crap. Otherwise, it makes for a short obituary. I want people PIST (pissed) when I’m no longer around. Type some crap. I’m about the slowest typer amongst us, but that does NOT prevent an occasional adventure or two. Even if it is just a small and trivial event, by the way, I dumped a meadow lark at 378 yds yesterday. Prepping up for the big yote hunt this weekend. You bet I’m gonna tell yall bastards about how I placed #98 out of 99 when you look at this page on Monday morning. And I’m gonna make it sound great…like I almost came in #1. Get your thinking caps out from under the bed, pretend you weren’t married…or whipped, write me up a story! Make some crap up; I’m too far away to verify most of this stuff anyway!!; 8:51 PM
