    Finally Rising waters @ home.

    Still coming up..Wish I could get a updated photo off Goggle earth right about now of the area to see how and where it is running thru the wood lots. I have a general idea of where the old river bed use to run but over the years it gets harder and harder to see..A flow like this will help to see...

    Pilot/J accused of rebate fraud, Millions of $

    Finally Rising waters @ home.

    Wife just sent this to me. Finally came over the banks lastnight for the first time in maybe 2 years. Been long over due and is good to see. This is the Portage river running behind our place..Hope it stays and cuts a path into its orignal flow before the Corp of Army Engrs got a hold of it.

    Pilot/J accused of rebate fraud, Millions of $

    Planning is all well and good until ya sit for as long as I have done right now and I ran myself out..granted its not a big deal..It cost me more money to go into town to get restocked as I refused to pay those prices. Still doesnt stop the fact I beleive its greed that drives the market. The...

    Pilot/J accused of rebate fraud, Millions of $

    I agree with ya Moot on going elsewhere and I do. But I dont think its right that they charge more then 2.50 gallon for something so basic and something that is needed for survival (water). At $1.10 or 1.30 a gallon I bet it would fly off the shelfs. Even @ $1.50 that should show a nice profit...

    Boots on the ground and in your home.............

    Fairly sure I understand and know what your getting at. For what they where searching for I think they did the best they could even tho it took a citizen to find him. But has anyone come forward and stated this actually happened to them where forced entry was used in this case? I did hear of...

    Talking Turkey( or how to catch a bobcat).

    Surprised the Officer issued a tag out of season after the guy admitted the Bobcat was running away..Good to see him get to keep it. I'm sure I would have acted the same way but not sure. I just may have been running for my truck before it came back. The swat in the face must have scared the...

    Pilot/J accused of rebate fraud, Millions of $

    If your throwing these Qs out for anyone Ill bite. 1. At the point of charging nearly 3 times the market price for something just because you have a captive audience. I don't mind paying a lil extra @ a truck stop but highly inflated prices we see are shameful and I consider it greed. 2. A...

    DNR Proposal: Restructuring Licenses,Applications, Permits.

    As a semi-retired snowmobiler Ill Kinda agree with ya..We can/did disrupt the woods. But at the same time the trail system has had some benefit to the herd when the snow pack use to get heavy. It allowed movement of the herd allowing them into new browsing areas and escape routes.

    DNR Proposal: Restructuring Licenses,Applications, Permits.

    Important part for them is they got their bicycle path right where I use to shoot rabbits. And more then likely some of our DNR money helped pave the way..

    DNR Proposal: Restructuring Licenses,Applications, Permits.

    For sure I don't know what the retailers make per license but I know when I go in to buy my tags I end up spending much more on other items. Even if they make a $ per sale its a dollar more then they had 2 min ago plus added sales and thats why most do it. Sometimes a retailer has to do what is...

    DNR Proposal: Restructuring Licenses,Applications, Permits.

    I usually don't have a problem with fees going up as it doesn't happen often. But after a fast read thru I seen allot of money going toward making my shopping experience for a license a better experince..(Marketing & Outreach) $244,400 is alot of money that should go elsewhere right now...
