This year will be the last for the garden though, I think. I haven't got any tomatoes the last two years due to squirrels. Can't trap or shoot them fast enough. It really makes me sad/angry. One of my favorite things in life is picking fresh tomatoes from garden and making BLTs. I may consider removing all the trees but that's like $10,000 just to get fresh tomatoes. Maybe I could ring garden with claymores?

It's torture to see 100+ beautiful healthy tomatoes out there growing and not get a single bite of one. Fuck you squirrels!!!!!!!


Have you considered feeding them? We put peanuts out for "ours", and birdfood. They ha don't touched our tomatos.

I've thought about it, but I don't want to reward the little shit bags. Plus we had a neighbor two houses down that used to do that and they buried them in the flower beds and would make a mess both burying them and digging them up.

Skins, is your garden too big to enclose with wire or netting?

The ravages of old age and decrepitude have forced me to give up almost all of these, but I have been an avid reader for 68 years, a licensed ham radio operator for 58 years, played tuba for 60 years, and several other instruments as needed, was a licensed instrument rated multi and single engine private pilot, a competitive triathlete, hiker and boater, both sail and powered, and of course, shooting.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I have a few things that I'd call hobbies. We like to take our Rubicon out on weekends, that leads to my photography.

For a few years we've collected rocks, I just started the "Tumbling" hobby, this will not end with one tumbler!

My favorite has been knife collecting. I've made great friends, own/owned some amazing pieces.

I wish shooting was more of a hobby, I'm determined to go more this Fall.

Guitars, history, photography, hunting, sporting clays, drawing, refinishing furniture. I would add collecting cars to the list if I were rich.

Motorcycling and music. Been off of 2 wheels for five years now and I have missed it.
Love music and live is the best. A few good bands that make their rounds around the bars around here that I enjoy seeing.


I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not.
