Thanks Jim.

Good morning All. Thank you very much for the responses and discussion posted under my query. After a brief absence, I am back on the case with much to do an think about. My appreciation to all who contributed to this thread. My absence in response was due to the fact that I recently...

Thanks Phil. I was certainly disappointed when Dave brought me the news of his challenges around the specific breeding. He's got a nice little breeding program going on there and I have met one of his dogs. Top notch. If anyone else in the vicinity occurs to you, let me know. Thanks man.

Hi all. I'm wondering if anyone might recommend a good CBR breeder in the CO/WY area. Big area, I know. Spinnaker Ridge in KS will not be breeding this spring/summer and the breeder I was working with in Montrose, CO was not successful. The only other breeder I know of out here in CO is a...

Grew up with them and saw them all over the inshore waters of MA and CT. Even saw one 35 miles offshore taking yellowfin! Not really a snotty weather 'first choice' design, as borne out by the fact that when the weather blew up, those guys were rarely out and about. They carry a fair load and...

I live and hunt in Colorado so I would assume that the conditions you will hunt are going to be similar to the conditions that I hunt. For me, the bottom line is this: breathable everything. I'll second the suggestion that you look towards a layering system, as opposed to simply one jacket...

It seems I have my answer. Thanks to Tod, Rich and Mark.

Hey guys. I'm looking for some help on a project. The family has long kept track of everyone's height measurements going all the way back to the 50's. There are currently 19 of us represented many times over on that door. It's a simple white bathroom door which is now nearly covered in pencil...

The water in these photos is beautiful. Winter ocean water has that amazing hue (at least to my eye it does).

There is a bar in a town called Ward, up in the foothills west of Boulder, where bluegrass players would come on Saturday nights for a good pick. The place had a reputation for being an off the radar spot where real players could meet other real players, drink beer and play. One night my wife...

Double billing of Coolio and House of Pain- in Sydney, Australia. The venue was way undersold, stage way too large for either act, and the audience definitely did not any appetite for what both groups were offering. Best moment was when House of Pain guy (Everlast?) got belligerent with the...

Hi all. I am wondering if there is anyone out there who would be interested in trading a gently-used Browning Buckmark, 7' bull barrel preferred, for a nearly mint (90%) matched pair of BUTLER .22 "Lord and Lady" dueling pistols. I had them in a local, reputable gunshop two days ago and they...

Nice work on the swords, Jim. What's left of the salt in my veins just jumped.

Geoff from Longmont, CO here. I've been mostly quietly hanging around the site for a bunch of years now. Had to stop calling them 'broadbills'. They are 'scaup' out here. Colorado is a funny place to hunt ducks. Pulling cactus spines out of a fallen mallard still amuses me. I hunt public land...

Sarge: growing up on the Vineyard I regularly ran into loons in the salt. Some nights we could even mouth call back and forth with them. Never saw any of them dressed in anything other than brown though. We too often wondered as to their age.

Good afternoon all. Sarda the CBR still has a couple seasons to get, but the girl's slowing up. I'm in the 'just thinking' phase, but if anyone has any reccomendations for CBR breeders in/around Colorado, I'd like to know. Sarda's from Susqudilla Kennels of Bainbridge, NY and a fine hunter-...

Having grown up in CT, I'll vouch for the huge numbers. There was a resident flock around my home which fed in the bay/river easily numbering in the hundreds. Funny story: I was fishing a local pond for sunnies and the local male mutie kept giving me the bums rush every time I relocated and...

Cheers to the best part of waterfowling and may his happy memory endure for years and years.

My sincerest condolences on your family's loss. Her gifts will continue to unfold for a long time to come.
