I was fishing once in Florida and I caught a great horned owl. He went after my bait. I failed to hook him but I flipped his ass into the lake! He did get my bait.
My tired old brain was partially faulty on this memory. I fact checked myself and here is the complete story if you want to read it.
Do Cards still win if Dick Groat gets dealt for Roger Maris?
(Updated Dec. 20, 2019) Dick Groat and Roger Maris, players who helped the Cardinals win World Series championships in the 1960s, might never have played for St. Louis if the Pirates and Athletics …

Cardinals Hall of Famer, legendary broadcaster Mike Shannon dies at 83
Shannon spent his entire big-league playing career with St. Louis from 1962 to 1970 and was a two-time World Champion as a member of the 1964 and 1967 Cardinals.
I thought that too Sir. I even called myself one a couple times as I poured it in... What can I say... I kept pouring.. Found the stuff on sale too. Bought nine or twelve cans of it. I will be a wuss till then. Will probably tire of it too but I will then be a reformed wuss... 😁 🤫
@Sawnee Cat I had forgotten your wife was from Estill Co. I threaten to go to the Mushroom Festival every year but never make the drive. Also, Estill Co. use to absolutely destroy my HS (Mercer Co) football team every year late 70's/early 80's.
@BBUK Yes, I hunted ginseng (and yellowroot, bloodroot, etc). My FIL taught me and I haven't really dug any since he passed away in 97. I have seen some ginseng while out turkey hunting.
@warrior-cat I'm glad someone is seeing turkeys. We (my wife and I w/ 75 years experience) haven't done very good. But no big deal. I hope to get to the lake later this week.
@Bert Higginbotha Awesome about your Dad. Sounds like we would have a lot in common. Do you still have the gun he's packing?

It's that time of year again. Girl Scout cookies everywhere. I have a weakness for Samoas. Bought 4 boxes today.
Lots done today. Changed the oil on my Mazda too. Work in the AM. Rest well, enjoy your evening(s)
Sad day for this Cardinals fan. Mike was a treasure to listen to on the radio calling the games. 😢Mike Shannon passes. Some saying long covid contributed.

One of his famous off the wall quotes, there is a cute couple down there. I bet he kisses her on the strikes and she kisses him on the balls.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 60°F and clear. Today's high expected around 85°F.
Another Monday.....
Wishing y'all a good one.

Yeah, I was close by. Really enjoy the area.
Good Morning D
May 1st already. 68° with clear skies and no chance of rain today. It will climb to 79° by this afternoon. The winds have calmed down. They were really refreshing over the weekend and steady with gusts.
Trust all are well and have a good day. We get some strange ones down here. But they spend their money and most go back up North

Good morning folks.
Back from my quick trip to Northern Kentucky. It was a great wedding. My parents, all my siblings, all three of my kids and two grandkids, every niece and nephew except one made it, along with quite a few assorted cousins and family friends. I wish I could have stayed a week, but back to work this morning.
I hope everyone had a nice weekend.

MORNING LEGIONNAIRES!
48° this morning with light winds and a high expected to be in the low 70's.
Regular workout shortly and then on to my student later this morning. Have an appointment with the oral surgeon later this afternoon to see how well the implant bases are doing.
Vandy swept the Cats yesterday. Cats had a 1 run lead going into the bottom of the 9th and could not hold it. We will definitely slide in the rankings this week.
Not much else for a Monday folks so go slow to start the week (especially you BBUK, too much work lately) and God Bless.
Good morning everyone.
A little cool and windy this morning so skipping out on the turkey hunting and hoping to get rested up a little. And maybe get some things done around here....maybe. It's good to be retired.
Not your typical ginseng plant. 5 prong (which are rare) with 7, 7, 6, 5 & 5 leaves on the prongs. Most full grown plants will have 5 leaves/prong and usually only have 4 prongs. As with most everything there are exceptions. This pic is in July and the berry pod in the center won't be full and red until the end of Aug-early Sept.
My FIL had a nice patch (passed away in 97) and about 15 years ago I caught one of my old neighbors digging it. He was lucky I didn't put him in his grave a decade early. I became a more reasonable milder man that day (to my surprise). It just wasn't worth it. That patch of "seng" was my lasting connection to my FIL.
This turkey season I've seen some nice patches of yellowroot (we dug them decades ago) and some ginseng that has started to come up. It got me in the mood to dig some again....we'll see.
I hope everyone has a great day.

SC, y'all ok, saw bad storms went through yesterday?
Good morning D-League. We currently have a light rain and 44° here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will be overcast with rain showers at times and a high of 53°.
Have a great day.
Have a great day.
Doin' just fine. We had a beautiful day yesterday with a steady wind off of the Gulf. It was dry. Friday night it rained a couple of inches but it was much needed.
There was a little bit of The Devil Beating His Wife on Saturday. Very pleasant though as the Devil wailed away. You could actually get a suntan standing in a rainstorm. That is not uncommon around here.
Yes. Here are two pictures one of each side. The latest patent date on it is 1911. It is a Winchester.
It was originally my grandfathers gun, Jesse Henderson Higginbotham 1869-1940.
So you are home before I got to wish you safe travels.Good morning from ATX. Currently 60°F and clear. Today's high expected around 85°F.
Another Monday.....

It is a sunny, cool 52 degrees here. Here are some pictures from yesterday at 5:30pm. We had a hail storm for about 5 minutes. .22 inches of rain/hail and little wind.

Model 1890? I use to collect Winchester firearms and other Winchester items too. Again with my FIL. I later sold most of my guns but still have many Winchester items. I have my Grandfather's old Model 94 30/30 that he used while living on Kodiak Island, AK and my wife has many of my FIL Winchesters. Awesome that you all still have that gun in the family.
We missed that Bert!! Sure got cool here in the Berg about that time!It is a sunny, cool 52 degrees here. Here are some pictures from yesterday at 5:30pm. We had a hail storm for about 5 minutes. .22 inches of rain/hail and little wind.
I think so.
I also have a model 94 30/30. It was bought in 1964 and has had one box of shells put through it.
My pickup has a gun rack and I have guns.
It was common to see kids come to school like that back in the day.
This is a political post from a man who loves and reads history. Please don't use this against me!

I could have went all day without seeing that!

A real shame when you can't trust your neighbor... (Of course around here......) A healthy wave now and again but...
I feel sorry for the chicken.
Hello,
Just sat down...
I feel like Jerry Clower when he was growing up before a coon hunt....
I got off work, ate a bite, played with the BB a few minutes. Loaded up the trunk of my car with tools and what not and headed to my youngest daughters house about 30 minutes after she left for work...This particular day I wasn't to busy.. Just took my cordless leaf blower and blew out my daughters garage, up packed the new garage door opener (The wireless kind) took the old one off as all you had to do was press it and it would open the door.) Put the new wireless keypad on the garage door post, screwed it in good. Took the new remote that come with it and programmed both of those and tried it out again later to be sure all worked. Then I sprayed the garage and outside front of the house for ants. (To get rid of them, not to draw them.
) Then I went inside, checked things out, brought my small step ladder and put that up so I could change her hallway bulb and got that working. Sprayed upstairs for ants. (To get rid of them.)(Used to be in that business and kept some equipment for medicinal killing purposes, for just my family or close friends bugs.)
Then I checked her new Ring Video/ doorbell I installed about two weeks ago but she hadn't never taken her battery off the charger so I couldn't do that because she had to program it. THEN I took a think and thought to check her furnace filter. (I always check my daughters furnace filters...) The result of what I found was below...At least she listened to me and bought some new ones but I had to push it up to and in the furnace hole to where it fit and it worked! I guess next time I will tell her to change the filter and not just buy some...
Anyway, I went around back and sprayed a little on her deck but it was about dark and I couldn't see to well, so I packed up, picked up, threw some more garbage in my daughters half empty garbage can to where it was full, and brought some candy home my daughter bought for her son's teacher, and came home... (All in my best Jerry Clower voice...)
Now here's the part I didn't do after the work but I wanted to...
HA, I have to apologize about the rant yesterday about people talking too much, saying too much to say too little. 😁
