You're lucky Swag.  All you have to do is read the post ( short version ) and move on to a different topic.  I'm on 5 day house arrest with Bronchitus, so I get to receive a phone call every few hours with a 20 minute ( long version ) hunting story of each dog.

Well fine, I think I'll take a break tomorrow and work on my bunkhouse.

I have some framing to do and more sheet rock work to do inside.
It's going to be a reloading house and guest house, I'll be able to shoot out to at least 1000 yards from this setup.
It will have two queen sized beds upstairs and a few amenities. Eventually it will get a new 16x14 deck on the back side and concrete slab too.

This is what i've been tinkering with when I am not killing dogs.

From this....



To this....

Thanks guys, it's been a lot of fun learning all the things that I have no idea what I'm doing with. After I purchased this small ranch in August 2005, we walked into 5 inches of water on December 26th 2005. It was a complete mess, everything in the basement was destroyed. So began the remodel on the house. I completely gutted the the basement and replaced all the electrical through out the entire house, that was a piece of cake since I spent over 15 years in the electrical trade. Installed all new underground power to my shop and shed.

 I completely re did all the plumbing in copper, all new fixtures, toilets, sinks, built new showers, all new cabinets,  etc. Built new walls, tore out old walls, had new vinyl wrapped windows installed, new ceramic flooring in the basement, new hardwood flooring in the main upper level, everything was replaced, new heat pump, furnace, water heater, well tank, etc. I dug up the well head and had an extension and new pump installed, new front deck, new roof, new seamless steel siding, etc. I busted up the old concrete driveway pad and put down new asphalt and ran all new underground water lines to the shed and shop.

I still have a full kitchen remodel facing me and looking forward to that challenge in the coming months.

And through it all, I still found time to tinker on the old milk shed shown in the photos. It's been a great experience for me and hopefully, I get it all done before I kick the bean can. 

It's been a challenge at times but still I've had a ball.

Okay.....So now, on to more important things, like killing dogs.

Went out early this morning, I know, I said I was going to take a break! But I was sitting here this morning drinking coffee and decided to take a couple of hours to pursue ol' wiley before I have to get busy here at home, out by 6:30 back home at 9:30.

 I heard  probably a dozen howling, seen 4, killed two, then came home to french toast, sausage and hot coffee.

TWO More for  SBA

I have the same problem with Gringo, except he reminds me constantly how great of a shot he is regardless of the amount of rounds he sends flying.   At least your pain is putting up dogs for your team.  For most of our team has hit a real slump in the dogs.  I think they have all wised up & are staying out of a 20 mile area around Gringo's house.  Very little sign, won’t answer the call can t even seem to find them in the spotlight.

 No unfortunately we're not holding back on the pictures I think I have 2 or 3 that I need to get posted otherwise we are in a slump.  Even gringo is having a hard time finding dogs, chuck is putting forth a lot of effort as w.ell just can't seem to get on the dogs. I really think we have just pushed them all of your way.
