    Just another dip in morale until fall results post and the desert dwellers get some monsoon rains to cool our brains.

    1996 Honda Accord

    My old boss had same model...maybe same year. Drove it 120 miles round trip every day for years with just basic maintenance required...that thing was bullet proof. I think his kids are still driving it with over 300k miles on it.

    Public Range Frustration

    Shot at the Southeast Tucson range yesterday...pretty busy and nobody yelling about anything. One kid got talked to about stopping at his shooting table during cease-fire, but handled very politely. Maybe the heat has everyone on better behiavior.

    Please help a 14 year old through Tax Credits

    Great program...we give to my kids' school every year. Will keep her in mind if something changes.
  8. Had one of those in a short-term apartment. That was the only one I'd ever seen before this.

    tough year

    Good work. Keep it up. My brother and dad both smoked and dipped...I think what saved me was being allergic to smoke and taking a big sip of dip spit when I was a kid.

    Fine BobCat

    How far east? Have a mom with 2 kittens (probably grown now) that like to visit my yard...all have very distinct orange/red pattern almost like a tabby. Houghton/Irvington area.

    Temp.

    Gotta have weathergasms over something...when I was in OK it was always wind, ice, or tornadoes. As if those things had never happened there before.
  12. True...even looks like OP already bought an Igloo after posting too. Now just a cooler discussion I guess
  13. Very pleased with RTIC so far. Haven't paid much attention to how long ice lasts in it since kids always in and out getting drinks, but Memorial Day everything was still ice cold when we got home after 4 days even though most of the ice had melted.

    Public Range Frustration

    I had the same thing happened to me on the Range in Tucson by the fairgrounds for, and this is no exaggeration, dropping a pen on my table as I walked by during a cold range!Yeah I think touching the table or putting anything on it during a cold range is the worst thing you can do there...I've had same for grabbing a water bottle.I also had them yell at me for, literally having my toes ON the yellow line.... not being completely behind it on a cold range. No joke.I believe it. I see both sides especially when it comes to safety...they don't know you from anyone else, but jumping folks and yelling at them just puts everyone on edge and unnecessary. Always seems like a couple of those guys have an authoritarian kick going. Others more laid back and easy to deal with.

    Marriage Retreat this weekend

    I was honestly asking if there was a difference between 1 and 2 in the list. Or maybe that was survey responses where folks put one or the other. I was in Biloxi and surrounding areas for several weeks after Katrina...saw a lot of government resources as well as churches and private and non-profit organizations working hard together.

    Are 1 and 2 not the same?

    Church thread Nuked

    Original poster asked if anyone else was going...pretty simple. Then it devolved into a bunch of opinions.

    The Slow Grind to July 7th

    Betting on no draw here and picking up a leftover depending on what my kids draw. I know that's not what you asked...

    35B on Fire

    I wonder if this is the smoke I saw looking southeast from Tucson. I was afraid it was 34a again.

    YOU Hunter Ed camp 8/5-8/6

    I missed the note that it was full. Glad I got my daughter registered when I did.

    Show Low area lakes

    I've always enjoyed camping at Fool Hollow (although tough to get RV/trailer spaces on weekends...plan well ahead and make reservations if that's your plan) and glad to hear the fishing is hot there this year. I've always fished with the kids there and never caught much. That's usually my expectation fishing with the kids though...more playing than fishing and catching. Nice lake for swimming and kayaking too.
  23. Haven't hunted 33 a lot and now scouting for October rifle hunt...I know the drill this time of year, and everyone is looking for general areas but not hot spots or honey holes. I've done the research and know my general areas where I'm going to start and hope to avoid the masses when the hunt starts...but... Why lie...I'm looking for hot spots and honey holes! If you don't have a tag this year or for whatever reason are willing to share some good spots send me a PM...I have some hot spots of my own in a couple of the southern units for whitetails and mulies as well as some elk hot spots I might be able to trade you... Not the typical post this time of year I know...no harm in asking though! Thanks!

    Bipod recommendations

    Thanks. I was already set on the Harris, just wasn't sure on 9-13 vs 13-27. Makes perfect sense hearing reports from field use.
