Good Evening All....it was a beautiful day today, we spent hours just anchored and enjoying each others company. Took a 45 minute nap, dropped the fishing line in for awhile, ooppps was I supposed to put bait on it? Had a great dinner and just got home, now to relax...LOL

Were planning on going again tomorrow for a few hours in the afternoon.

Not sure exactly..8,000 - 9,000 feet. Anymore its hard to get in remote enough that you don't see any people, but I know a few places..

Hey everyone. Went for a drive today to check out the train station I'll be departing from when I go home for Thanksgiving. Drove around town and saw a few neat things.

Steam tractor on display in the park:



A giant pumpkin

Just out of curiosity... if one were to win an abnormally large pumpkin, what would one do with it?

I personally would have a hell of a time shooting it.

Actually, I didn't get that far in the thought process. I'd gander it weighs anywhere from 150-200 lbs, and I'd rather not worry about transporting the damn thing back home, haha.

The tractor was SOOOOOO cool. They had it welded shut for the most part, but you could see the steam valves if you peeked in there. I wonder if one of those steam tractors sounds anything like a steam locomotive.

mmm punkin pies.

Saw a crapload of wild turkeys today too. mmm turkeys. Now THAT makes me wanna pull the guns out.
