  1. Farming, Gardening & Homesteading
    Walking to the back of the property to check on the garden, looked to the back, and several of my neighbors cows were there. My dogs saw the cows, and the fun began. A couple of my dogs are cur dogs, which seem to take great joy in herding cattle. Sometimes my dogs slip into my neighbors...
  2. Wilderness Survival, Hiking and Camping Forum
    A timber company is cutting trees near the farm, so saturday afternoon the dogs and I made a trip over to where they are cutting. I wanted pictures of skitters, and other timber cutting equipment for an article I am writing for AllOutdoor. On the way home the dogs were getting hot, so I took...

    Awhile back we talked about a 50 cent pocket compass I ordered off Ebay. Rather than buying the compass from an online store, just go straight to the source and cut out the middle man. Paracord zipper pulls were added to my packs, and then the compass was attached to the paracord. Is the...

    We need homes and lumber, but I wish clear cut did not deface the land so much. What would have otherwise been a nice hiking trip is partially spoiled by areas of overgrown stickers. The areas of clear cut can be rough on the dogs also. They do not like going through the stickers anymore than...

    The chickens were in their yard but she got out somehow. It looks like the puppies were trying to pull her feathers out and pulled a couple of sections of flesh off. There is a piece of missing flash under her wing and another section close to her vent. Each section is about 3 inches across...

    ....but I love my dogs. Today I had one of those ham slices from the market with the bone in. Gave the bone to one of my dogs. He loves them. Eventually, I will find it in the yard and then back in the house and then in the bed and so on. I know he is loving it. I find myself, as I watch...
