OLD pictures

As all of you know I love dogs, this is old rout. One of the best coondogs we had growing up. still have not found tobin or kodiak by the way.This old seller hill i'm sitting has to be the best spot in the world for gossip,chat,what ever. I still think they use this spot, but they can't sit were i'm sitting because mom planted cactus there so it would grow grass .

By the way what ever happened to kids playing cowboys and indians?That was one of our favorite games,and boy did we have a good time. the hills,barns,ditches,sky the limit they had a hard time keeping track of us. See the horse in this pic. this is the only horse i've been bucked off of,run over by more times then I can remember.

thought i'd share vance

Fishing and cowboys

tried our luck at ice fishing tonight no luck. The title of my blog my Heros have all ways been cowboys. So for the next few weeks when I post I'll show you a few heros. this is the man pack you can quess who they are i'm sure. thank my mom for this pic. she looked a long time for it, plus took it i'm sure.

winter

winter ! sleding,icefishing,coyote hunting,coon hunting,bobcat hunting, deer hunting,cutting wood, working in the shop. All is good until you talk cold weather,busting ice,high winds that seem to never stop. I'd should just pack up and move to the dakota's then i'd expect the wind/cold.
Plus I could do some good calling,hunting,poole playing,and once in while have a stiff drink. what do you do in the winter for fun.
