Wow!....there's a blast from the past! Matt Doofus. Wonder if the "lodge" is still in biz? He certainly rode a tall pony....in his own mind anyway. Kinda wonder about a guy like that.....did his balloon ever land?

Heat rises. Put a small propane box stove with a stove pipe out the roof of a box blind and your scent will be drawn through the firebox eliminating lots of odor....and then up and out the chimney. My chimeny's have an exit about 18 feet above the ground level. And that hot air continues...

SD.....you'r going to live to be 150 years old and wish you were dead! lol My wife used to tell me: "If you don't take care of your body.....where are you going to live?" Strange tho....how little "chinks in your armor" come back to bite you later. All these little things become...

Actually.....nobody TELLS you . Grin. I seldom use deodorant too.......but there are some days it is good to have. I always buy the scent free variety. I do not like smelling my own deodorant.

My brother-in-law has COPD....and it's gotten worse. Went with him to look into assisted living and independent living situations.....which also have a nursing home and memory care in the same facility. Looked a a number of these over the past year or more. Kinda interesting experience to...

Yeah.....but I am a bit too far north for White Oak survival. (from what I know). Burr Oak are best suited here. Red oak too....but not as tasty to the deer. I get good natural regen from burr oak <---my favorite method. lol

No.....just too many irons in the fire this year. I did that some years back, but that was with white oak acorns from southern MN. Not sure I got any results from that. Was a shot in the dark. I do see the DNR collectiing Burr Oak acorns at a golf course where I play in Nisswa. They...

You get on this airplane....and they allow open seating. Which seat would you pick?

May be the best advice one can find. Most "investors" are too impatient....and are speculators and opportunists. The market can work for them....but you better be agile. Traders trade, investors wait. (Both can work....one is easier)/ My 2 cents.

"I would pretend your getting a drill, pick your drill, and buy a tractor that can handle it." ^ Best advice I have heard on selecting a tractor.

Before I traded my JD 3520 e hydro, we had a major tornado event. I hauled my tractor and loader with grapple and a ballast box to my home for storm cleanup. Did huge tree sections from 150 year old white and red pine trees mostly. Some I could barely lift with the loader / grapple...

^ It's odd - one mans dreams vs another. I went from a somewhat capable JD 3520 EHydro open station tractor......to a Kubota L3860 HSTC. I wanted the cab for comfort in any weather and added fluid to the rears. No longer can haul it with my trailer or truck.....but this tractor get's er...

Get a tractor big enough for a drill.....IMO. If you have light soils a minimum till drill can be used to do no-till work. Kubota's a heavier duty, lifts more, and weighs more, and has a better front axel .....hp for hp....IMO. Do this!. Nuff said.

Not sure if that is for the "free seed" or for the seed you buy?? I plan to buy a bag of seed and add the milo to it. If this is not available I will put my own mix together. (I hope). For me, the trouble is that I am in AZ and do not want seeds shipped here. Rather, I need them...

I'm pllanning to plant (with my grain drill) a diverse mix from Greencover called Milpa. It's got over 40 + varieties of garden veggies including beans, peas, squash, brassica, Mellons, and much more. I am adding Milo to this mix in an effort to get some vertical cover and perhaps give those...
