Takes time TD. This wind is still blowing at a high rate of speed. When I can hear it in this house you know it is blowing. Anybody hunting down in this part of the country tonight? I think Bill got blow-ed off to the end of the earth.

Mike we started out at 6:30 quit at 8:00 didn't get nothing. Followed about 4 tracks and never finished a one. Nice warm night wind still blowing a little don't know where all the coons have gone! I think the tracks were old or something seen some tracks but they were old ones. Hope everyone did better than us. Ya I think your right Bill either blew off the face of the earth or his dogs are doing so well he's hunting 24/7.

Ya I meant to do that too but never had the time and weather was yucky so may work on them this spring and do that this Christmas. I have seen them put lights on them to and that was pretty cool. I found a different way to do the heads but this one was a simpler version so want to work on the other version this year cause I like the looks of it a lot better. Is it raining up there?

Mike you can purchase or probably rent a wallpaper steamer score the wallpaper or use a wallpaper perforator then steam it off. I've also heard you can score the wallpaper in crisscross's and apply with a sponge 1 part vinegar 2 parts water let it soak for 15 minutes and peel it off with a drywall scraper. Then go over it with the sponge and vinegar solution again to take off any remaining adhesive. You would want to make sure and put down plastic on anything that needs protected. Hope this helps.
