Once it dries out, I’ll be doing some repairs on the drive to gate for sure.

Not sure if you remember the old bridge driving to the house. Usually width of water in creek is a couple feet most of the time. Maybe 15’ from bridge to bottom.

High as I’ve ever seen this also.

Don, it was as full as I’ve ever seen it. Not far from going over top of the dam.

Do you eat them or are they like rodents?

 

[greenbeast]

I’d have to be pretty desperate to eat one, they are excellent at digging holes all through your yard.
Kim and I have shot two prior to rain, then saw 5 out in pastures driving around without a gun.

I've read they ate them during the great depression, called it Hoover Ham or something like that.

Me, not so much. I should of been born in the eighteen hundreds.

Wait what????
You mean you weren't???

I know it's hard to tell with my youthful looks, but my body reminds me that maybe I was born back then.

Bear came by. It usually comes by on garbage night and has fun trying to get into the can, makes a bit of noise and I have to go scare it away. It is not a cute little bear, it's big and scary. Especially at night. Then it decided it wanted some honey and broke into the bee hive, it wasn't easy and left some marks.

This one chased us off our salmon spot - she doesn't look big here, much bigger up close, got three of our salmon that day after running across the bridge...

I would let that bear have all my salmon if it kept her off me.

Oh yes, we left them all, she ate two on the spot and left with a third - impressive animals up close

You ever stock fish in there or does it dry up every season?

We haven’t stocked it it actually has bass and perch in it. My plan is to have wildlife department help me stock it after we get it rebuilt.

I want to be able to go out the garage, throw a lure and catch nice bass in the evening!

I don’t miss the bears with trash. Daughter left garage door open one time after putting her bike up. Bear opened freezer and fridge door and pulled crap put then was a pain to get out of the garage.

Favorite story is when neighbor called me early in morning saying wife left her doors open on the Escalade. Turns out a bear opens doors and rummaged around but hardly did any damage except few claw marks.

A friend of mine is a veterinarian and has a bear skull on a shelf in the office.. he told me that in reference to the small skull bones, the bears head is so massive because it is all muscle.
