Frank Passed On A Doe This Morning ...

but he did take a photo of her feeding on corn he had put out in the power line ROW with his bumper spin feeder. Frank and Jeff and Jeffs cousin are going on a doe hunt down in the TX Hill Country so Frank decided not to take a doe this year at the farm. His buddy Phillip shot a good sized doe this morning. Live weight was around 130 lbs.

Bought A Sir Duncan Spin Top ...

on EBay. One of many toys I remember from my childhood. Just bought one and it cost more than seventy nine cents! Somebody had three cases of these for sale a while back for around one hundred bucks for a dozen NOS spin tops. I did not want to spend that much but given what one cost me I should have bought the case. Would have been a better deal.

Frank Got A Spike Buck This Morning ...

the first buck with his new deer rifle. He quickly field dressed and iced down his buck and took him to the processor. Looking forward to some bacon wrapped back strap!

Got My NOS Ray O Vac Sportsman Lantern ...

fired up today. Bought it off EBay a while back. It works like a champ. Nothing like a quality USA made product! I don't know the date it was manufactured but am sure it was decades ago. Going to put this by the bed and use it as a night light. I don't have any place to plug in a lamp because all of the plugs are being used by the machines that keep me breathing at night.

Got Some More Pics From Franks Deer Cam ...

looks like a wide variety of wildlife is checking out the recently planted food plot.A Hog, Deer, Coyote and Bobcat were all caught on camera last week. No trophy bucks yet. When the oats come up, hopefully that will pull in some does and some big bucks!

About Me

Name: JDP

Location: Fort Worth, Texas, United States

I am 61 years of age, married with two children, a son age 31 and a daughter age 28. I was forced to retire in 2001 due to health problems. I was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy a short time later. I worked for fifteen years in the Insurance Claims business. I then worked for about five years for the State Of Texas Department of Human Services. Being disabled and not working is the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life. My respiratory system is weak and I have to sleep and breath with the aid of a Bipap machine and an oxygen concentrator. This has all but stopped me from making overnight trips away from home due to the equipment being bulky and not easy to move and set up. I have for the most part had to give up the things I loved to do the most which were hunting and fishing. I also can't drive my 1983 Jeep CJ-5 any longer because it has a standard transmission. It is now in my son's hands. I hope he takes good care of it. Being disabled sucks. I am taking it one day at a time. My children are a blessing though they can be trying at times. We have an american eskimo dog named Foxy we got from a rescue organization and a stray cat my daughter named White Kitty.
