Oh my, that looks like FUN!

Great update on Carlo.

Loving your avatar! I need to make mine fancy one day :P Is it still super hot up your way? We are needing some rain and cooler weather down here, but I'd like to avoid a hurricane!

Typical Chicago Summer. Hot and Humid, followed by heavy rain, then 70 MPH winds, then you put the Heater on! HOT for sure. Was supposed to play golf Friday with a few neighbors, but we cancelled because it is supposed to be 96 and humid. That is just not comfortable. Marge called us Wussies. Almost as if she wants me out of the house! Imagine that!

You... NO! I'd want to be around you 24/7 if I were your wife I'm sure! :cool:

Here's wishing that the heat passes soon, I'm ready for some cooler weather but you can keep the mosquito's! Getting the ranch ready for the fall, should be gorgeous with all the rain we have had earlier. Whenever you are ready!

Then you are a smart lady.

As far as when ready, I would love to get down there sometime in the fall or spring. How far are you from Dallas? I am sure they are multiplying. My cousin told me in Corsacana they now just ring the doorbell and ask for food, rather than root for it.

Skeeters are really bad by me. Once the sun starts going down, they all come out, and they are packing their own food trays and utensils. This has been one bad summer here with all of the rain, heat, and lack of hunting. :D

When is your hunting trip planned for now?

I'll be in Dallas until October 12th.

Unfortunately it is not planned as of yet. With Marge's travel, I have to wait and see when she is gone. I will know in early Sept, but most likely, it will be in early to Mid October. When will you be there? Some big show out in LV also, correct?

I fly into Dallas, stay with my cousin for the night, then we head out to Corsacana where we do the fun stuff. Then back to Dallas, spend the night, and head on home.

I'll be leaving for Dallas on Sept 7, and returning on Oct 12th. Vegas is in November.

I saw this too but I am hosting a wedding shower for my nephew and fiance on Sunday. It would have been a great time too. dang it!
