Finaly got out in the woods
Couldn`t go to far as I don`t feel real chipper yet but we got out in the woods, had some hot chocolate and peaches.

Good to see you out and about Lenn, I love the woods in the snow, it makes tracking so much easier.... Wishing you a speedy and full recovery friend.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Nice pics Pitch......yep...there's just somethin' about being in the woods that brings a calming effect. People were not designed to live in crowded cities and for me, the further people are away from me....the better.
We are headed for a biggie tonight and all through tomorrow.....up to 16" of wet snow. The wood is brought in, the food well stocked up, Jeeps in the garage, and the only thing I gotta do is run up to the Giant and get a 12 pack.
You look good with that beard and the single action on your side.
I miss the pics you used to post with Snoopy-----6

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Thanks fellars it was fun, we`ll go a little further next time maybe make it to the mill.
Yep Six I miss the Snoopy dog just don`t seem the same.
We got 8-10 inch of snow last two days, you guys in those rough area`s out East take care and stay safe.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
My 1st thought was, Snoopy is missing. Did you forego a fire? Todd/3leg
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Thanks fellars, we were going to make a fire Todd but after walking that far I was tuckered
About three more trips and I`ll make it to the sawmill.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Lenn, we could sure use a pinch or two of your snow on our mountains. Very poor snowpack in the headwaters of the Rio Grande and irrigation season is already starting. I planted an apple and two plum trees a couple of days ago, and one of the plums was already through with blossoming. Next up is to build a raised bed and get some tomatoes in.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Pitchy, with my dodgy old back it was a good workout. One rock was so big I had to leave it in there. Afterward, it was beer and aspirin time ...
Re: Finaly got out in the woods
I`m with ya Bill.
Got out for another walk but much further.
Made it to the Mill.
Long jump by deer.
Rest.
Norma walks on top of the snow and I sink in, wonder what`s going on with that.
Well used deer trails.
Woods creature.
More deer trails
Deer digging or two bucks fought here.
Took a couple shots with the 44 mag, hit once missed once at 50 yards.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Great to see You and Norma Up and out. I took the Three Grandsons down to the state park today, there is a beaver dam in the swamp just 1/4 mile from Lake Erie. they are 4, 5 1/2 & 6 years old .been snowing all day but pretty warm. by the time we walked a mile they were all soaked with boots full of water. Lake Erie was really pounding from all the wind.
I call that pretty good shooting, those hostiles don't have a chance.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Glad you got back out, Lenn. Looks like a grand day out there. Nice pictures.
I'd say that ain't bad. Fifty yards is a fair poke for a 44 six shooter.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
45Colt sounds like you had a fun day and thanks.
Nath nope Norma doesn`t shoot much, once in a while a 22.
Jay that`s a old model Vaquero and has always been a good shooter, one of the handguns I can see the sight on fairly well.
Thanks fellars.

Re: Finaly got out in the woods
Lenn, I had an old model Vaquero in .45 Colt with 7.5-inch barrel, and using FFFg and that old black Remington dish-base dirty-lubed bulk bullet they used to sell, darn if it wasn't as accurate as any smokeless pistol with adjustable sights that has passed through my hands. Of course, I traded it off. Mother Powell's first-born never had much sense when it came to gun trading. Still doesn't.
Re: Finaly got out in the woods
I`ve never shot black in this gun should try it one of these days , yep they're good dependable pistols.
I`ve traded off so many guns over the years I wish I had now too.

80 degrees here today. We have a lot of trees leafing out and pear and peach trees in bloom. Our 2 weeks of Winter lasted almost the whole 2 weeks and got below freezing for a little while.
