betchyer *** i will. duck season opens this saturday here, and having gone through the same thing you are a couple months ago with my best hunting buddy, it's bittersweet this year.

tell ya what though, i hope those vets know how much it means to us that they come out to the peace of the dogs own home to do what needs to be done. that's a standup move if i ever saw one.

Sorry for Smokey Mike (& Jodi) Had a few last night in his honor

That is sweet looking Al!! Nice Job, can't wait to see the finished product.

Too cool Pat, I need to look back into getting my CPL again. Hate that it had to lapse with the move and all last year.....

To Smokey!

Brought the Ex out of hiding last night and brought it to work today. Will take it on a short trip tomorrow back to school for homecoming, just like old times. Other than being thirsty, it's running great!
