Hunter and the hunted.........

Bought these clear back in December an put them out first of May. My wife really enjoy checking cams so it becomes a fun outing! I set one cam up on just still photos and it had some glitch pictures on in.....like half frame shots but they were still clear daytime shots......not so much night time!

Thanks for letting us know and dang what a fun read going back through this old thread! Steve was one of the good ones!!!!

And get your money lined up for the bet that tournament fishing will be on the chopping block! Wonder what G&F is going to do as they continue to allow these folks to come in and strip all the privileges away......G$F will be out of a job!!!

With the help of maps provided by BowHuntAz I was able to locate the site I believe to have been "Sybil" at one time in AZ history. This past weekend I was able to find remnants of foundations, concrete slabs and what I believe to have been pillars for a water tower/tank. There are several railroad ties planted as posts in the same area and there is evidence of plumbing etc! According to the date stamp on one of the pillars 1923 is when some of that got built! My interest lies in the fact that my father in law lived in Sybil in 1954. While his family lived there his dad worked for Union Pacific and their house burned to the ground. We have one single picture that we collected from a relative that shows her dad and his brother standing in front of a couple of railroad tie posts with a trellis on top! I have been in touch with Union Pacific Railroad Museum in Council Bluffs, Iowa, Arizona Historical Society, Arizona Archives with nobody even acknowledging that such a place existed! Still waiting to hear from the California Union Pacific Museum to respond as well as Cochise County and no luck so far from the Benson Museum! Anybody that has kinfolk, relatives or just somebody you know who might have a picture of any of those buildings etc, I would love to get my hands on one! I gotta believe that somebody out there has a picture of that little railroad town! Any help appreciated!!!

I have enjoyed reading some of his stuff! He is funner to listen to..........

That email worked, got a quick response back from him! My wife and I tried to get him to speak at graduation while we were teaching in Ash Fork........ Hi Jeff, Do you have access to David Myrick's Railroads of Arizona? Sybil would have been a section station. We had several of them on both sides of Ash Fork the Santa Fe RR. They were Located every few miles or so and crews were stationed at each to check the tracks and make repairs. Most were never seen on regular maps but the railroads had them on theirs. Myrick's book would have it and maybe even some information. I have his other books on RR's but Volume 1 must be at home. I can check tonight. Jake Flake used to tell me about Belly Button, AZ and I could never find it on a map. I finally found it between Snowflake and Taylor. It was his ranch. Tell your wife I'm giving the commence speech at Ash Fork for the Class of 2019 next Tuesday. Marshall

As I approached an area marked "No Trespassing" I realized that as a law abiding citizen I would get into more trouble for breaking a trespassing law than an illegal would for coming into the USA.....lots of upside down out there!!!!

First read the story in the Independent, then saw it on 3TV news and honestly the story got better from the newspaper to the interview! I dare say the person telling the story had no idea which direction bullets were flying!!!! Woman believes horses were targeted by shooter in Heber https://www.azfamily.com/news/woman-believes-horses-were-targeted-by-shooter-in-heber/article_d85250be-7399-11e9-a2b8-e390bc57b5ca.html

I shoulda thought of him........thanks for the reminder!

Great lead....thanks!!!!

I showed that little spot to my wife a while back as we were passing, isn't it illegal to "feed" wildlife?

If we could only convince those who aren't managing that/those wild horses......

Well he is getting cheated up in the headgear department though right????

Tough to come across and harder than heal to put them down!!!

Does this buck have only three legs?

I am in the middle of a debate with a "friend" about the idea of having to be trained and licensed to own a gun and all guns would then need to be registered! His comment was, "Why are law abiding citizens worried about license/registration of their guns? We have a drivers license and register our cars!" I've alway felt like this was just that next big step just before confiscation! Anybody have any thoughts? I am trying to keep my composure, he has already informed me I was just ignorant.......so you can see why that friendship might be on thin ice!

The live stream has been interesting to say the least.......don't get together with friends and go hunting coyotes or you are gonna be in violation if these folks get what they are asking for!!!

Lots of good law abiding citizens own lots of guns and ammo..................so true!!!!

That was exactly my first response to him. I know he's a liberal, I know he is still butthurt over the election...........just trying to common sense him but failing miserably! Sometimes 2+2 doesn't equal 4 for some people!
