Hey guys if the tables were turned women would have to take care of you so just remember when you become a patient not to give the nurse to much trouble. Mike sounds like you better get busy with breeding more dogs. Kid got a field camera yesterday can't wait for him to get it up to see what is out in the woods. Rex he is also getting ready for bow hunting. Bought three new stands also. Everbody stay safe and have a good one. Linda

Mom is doing better. Finally got her pian whipped. She is getting shots to take care of some blood clots now. Aug 22nd she starts chemo. Hopefully she can get closer to normal once that gets going. We sure do miss our sassy mother and wonderfull granny!

Well it sounds like everything is goin' better for everybody---that is very good news. Has anybody been doin' their rain dance? I ran into a couple of small showers north of town but nothin' too write home about. Hopefully we'll get a nice one this weekend. I'd just about go out and stand out in it if I thought it would do any good. Seen some road kill coons today--I think they are commiting suicide 'cause of the drought. Talked to my farmer buddy, he said some of his corn don't look too good, needs a rain real bad if it's gonna make anything. That tells me the coons may be gettin' hungry.

you guys must live next to a wildlife refuge. If I were you guys I would fence the whole highway in and save all the wildlife. You guys would even get a award for doing that.

Accurate report: turned loose on a fence row with a creek running through it and corn on both sides. Dog went 12yards as shown by the garmin and locked up tight!! Saw 2 coon and hooted and hollerd like a wildman. Walked the dog 25 yards and turned loose. Dog went a few feet and bawled like a hungry baby. Went 47 yards and once again was tree top blowing! Saw 1 and and lost my voice. Crossed the road and turned loose again. Dog struck and went 97 yards and told the world he was under one. Saw 2 more and thought I was gonna die. It was warmer than I like and the danged moths were by the hundreds. Dog is laid up sleeping plum wore out. Not bad for a 2 month lay up

If it's in 'em it's there if it aint it won't be ever, laid up 2 months or 2 years. Some dogs are the real deal--and then there's the pot lickers. Thats the way it is-------end of accurate report!!!!!!

I am glad SIU is 20minute drive from me. Plus I kinda live off the main roads. Just got back from a big picnic. The Eagles put it on for their members. All the food you want all the soda you want and all the beer you want to drink for free.

Send some of it our way we need it ain't doing nothing. It's dryer than a popcorn fart up here ain't going hunting till it rains. Dogs would get copd from sucking up all that dust.
