Well you sure got nice company. Beautiful smiling face on the left, not so beautiful face on the right.

One thing about gophers, their good at making more gophers!

I haven't had much time to watch the game for signing autographs...

And its gopher making time :lol: Even prairie dogs, I prefer to wait until the younguns are half grown and then its open season. You pop the small ones when they are just out of the hole and really stupid or pop their parents while the pups are still too young to fend for themselves and you just limit your future targets. Of course some ranch owners and I have different goals :wink:

come on, a baseball game is great.
The game is only part of it - it's America, a sociological event.

No, I believe that is the pitcher's mound...or one whale of a prairie dog in there.

Looks warm there. I'm still looking a brown grass and snow patches, along with naked trees. Should be seeing some green in about a month.

Yea Shrapnel.....I know what you mean. For me, it's 215 days at the plant, (9 weeks off...paid) 148 days playing, and a couple days reserved for funerals and doing what others want to do.

I tell ya, life ain't easy sometimes.

In a little over a year, I will have about 363 days a year for playing and two days for "other issues" :D ----6

Looks like a waste of a good day for shooting woodchucks or gophers. Hopefully in a month if the weather cooperates, I will be out shooting some woodchucks.
