    Good grief..... 56 pages of this. It's November. Do any of you guys hunt or work?

    2023 Bird and Dog pics

    My apologies, I wasn't aware that a dog was a requirement for every photo. 🙄 Today's hunt with the dog:

    A couple jump shoots with my brother that's in for a visit/hunt: Some irrigation ditch decoying action today

    He's a great looking dog. I had a similar looking pointing lab some years back that I lost to an accident at a very young age.

    2023 Bird and Dog pics

    That sounds like more than I've pulled from Finn but looks similar to the first encounter minus those in the chest. His mouth had a lot on the first and I was pulling as fast as I could and not sure how many I pulled before I got to his leg. The vet had to get some of the deep ones there and...

    I've been fortunate with skunks but Finn has tried two different porcupines, only one requiring a vet bill. I worry that barb wire will eventually get us. The dang stuff is scattered all over the place.

    How to get time off work? FMLA help or?

    If the company has given this much notice, it sounds like they place some value on communication. You need to do the same. Let them know that you were unaware this was coming, you've already invested cash into it and will lose some of that cash if you can't do it as planned. Ask for union...

    How to get time off work? FMLA help or?

    #1 in seniority, 401k, pension, good salary, assuming insurance.........keep the job unless you despise it and can replace it. I would likely be looking for another but there's a good chance that you won't have vacation to use in the new job by then without them making an exception. I'd go...

    Montana quail….

    I know fwp shows them in the Bitterroot but I assumed they were all on private land without much access. Cool birds either way.

    OnX hypocrisy

    It seems like you aren't giving the full picture here. Was their access prior to his leasing ? If he's leasing a private ranch, there was no access to begin with.

    Off-grid trailer as basecamp

    That's where I am for the rest of the season (birds and deer), but a Marriott is hard to find in small town MT. I may find myself in places where I can often see daylight around one edge of the door. :)

    Off-grid trailer as basecamp

    I need to set up with solar. I rarely stay for more than a week. I also rarely use the the microwave but the wife or kids (not really kids) like the option when they are along. Mine is only a 19 footer and is not made to withstand freezing temps. The heater would work fine but I couldn't...

    Off-grid trailer as basecamp

    I should add that I do all my cooking with the propane stove. Actually, off grid to stay closer to where I hunt without the need to go back home and be pulled away from hunting into something that I don't want to do. The amenities offered by a camper because I can. I've done my share of back...
