Same thing with deer at Ft. Sill. There is a mini wildlife area near the post golf course where no hunting is allowed. It is also adjacent to a housing area on post. During hunting season, deer migrate to that area in bunches and live around there until the season is over. However, deer aren't the only ones who have figured that out, turkey do that too during their season.I was thinking of some of the wildlife pictures posted on here and it reminded me of something. For 12 years I worked at the "atomic plant" near Paducah. It was built in a secluded area in land owned by the federal gov. Hunting was allowed in season, but not near the perimeter fence around the plant. Come deer season and you would see herds of 30 or more deer huddled near the fence. Over time, they learned the fence line was a safe space. When season was not in, you never saw them by the fence.
One more thing. Rumor is Alben Barkley bought up 750 acres of farm land cheap. He then sold it to the gov to build the plant on. I wasnt around back then to know for sure, but it is what I heard since I was young. Alben was a powerful senator and VP from 1949 to1953 under Truman.
Storm, you are right, they are not stupid! When I played golf, (well attempted to) there was an 13 point buck that stayed on one of the holes during hunting season, the only time he would move is when teed off!Good morning everyone.
@berniecarbo Animals are not stupid. It doesn't take them long to figure out a safe place or a dangerous place. I always loved to visit Paducah Shooters when I made the 8 hr drive to the western end of the state.
A few nice upsets as usual in the opening round. I did watch a bit of the Bama and Duke games. Penn State may be the team to root for other than UK. I've enjoyed watching them this month. I bet Cal is nervous this morning. I can't even imagine if................
Babysitting day mixed with some basketball and packing....meeting tomorrow afternoon and then spending the night with my parents.
I hope everyone has a great day.
Yes, Shooters Supply in Paducah. I've been there several times. That area and really all of Paducah's west side has changed over the years. The area where Ky Oaks Mall is used to be a huge peach orchard. Picked a few peaches as a kid. I hated it when the peach fuzz mixed in with your sweat. Itched really bad.Good morning everyone.

I got to know Phyllis McCutchen (one of the original owners) pretty good and got to duck hunt with her grandson Clint years ago when he was a kid. I haven't seen him since but he has got to be in his 30's now. It's been many years since I've been there.Yes, Shooters Supply in Paducah. I've been there several times.

When they were building I-24, when they weren't working, I'd get up there and run to the Ohio River and back. Great quiet place to run and I had it to myself. I don't really know any of the folks at Shooter's Supply personally, but they've always been pretty fair with me.I got to know Phyllis McCutchen (one of the original owners) pretty good and got to duck hunt with her grandson Clint years ago when he was a kid.

I think we'll win. But I must admit that I'm getting a little anxious.OK Cats it doesn't get any more urgent than this. It's been four long years since an NCAA victory. Now is the time. Go Cats!
Close Joe but you are a little early. But we appreciate the thought.

I think we win too Storm. If not then no way am I going anywhere near RR.I think we'll win. But I must admit that I'm getting a little anxious.
If we lose there will be some miserable souls here on RR. I'll probably avoid this site for a while if we blow it tonight.

No, he's en Greensboro.Reeves is En Fuego.
Providence has a wee bit of foul trouble. Could play out down the road.hopefully it doesn't turn out big that providence was able to cut in from 11 to 7 in the last minute with a couple big threes. good first half though.
The 1-16 matchup, the new 5-12 upset pick.Purdue not going deep in the tourney was probably one of the easiest predictable things coming in but I thought they would at least win the first one haha.
Mr. Carbo, I helped build the bridge on I-24 there by the mall just a few years ago. Dawson Bridge Company wanted me to go with the company to Eastern Kentucky for their next job, one of the bosses too me where we were going, the sun came up at 11:50 and went down at 12:10! I told him let me think about it, NO! GOD had other plans for me.When they were building I-24, when they weren't working, I'd get up there and run to the Ohio River and back.

That must have been a bridge in my area. Dad still tells everyone when where I live gets brought up in conversation...."The only place he knows you can see someone's backyard by looking out the skylight". He's not far from the truth. lolMr. Carbo, I helped build the bridge on I-24 there by the mall just a few years ago.
