These are trail cam photos. Attach the camera to a tree or something and leave it there for a few days and come back later to see what ya caught. The black and white photos are night shots. I think the bottom photo might be a coyote. I can hear the coyotes howling and yelping it up at night so i tried to place the camera in an area I thought they might be carrying on. On the other hand it could just be any old dog wandering around in the dark..

not enough black for fox.
I thought about grey fox because i've seen them in this area before. but i dunno, this looks too big to me.
*
you have grey foxes? i need to google or a pic.
grey and red.

the photo might be a gray fox. i'm not sure but it looks like a bushy black tail which would keep with a gray fox description. has the same ears and head shape features too. dunno though. i put the camera next to a big brush pile in the woods that looks like it would make a good fox den. will see if anything shows up.

colorwise they are close. not enough face detail. now, if you see a wolverine, but too warm now.
Looks like Hot makes its return this week.
Plenty of Coyote serenades around here, too. It usually sounds like someone gets out of line and yowls out of turn, followed by an ass-kicking.
Wife & kids done with goat showing/fair season. Thank God.
Also, we're done with Unemployment extensions. So it's Slummertime for beer purchases. You find some "interesting" stuff when you enter the less-than-.50 per can price range.
Sort of a slowdown at work, which seems to have Uncle Tightass All In on just writing off the entire year. Why would you want to look for work, when you can wait for your current, longtime, unprofitable customers to call?
I gotta get a ringtone of G-Dub telling me how resilient I am. But first I'd need a cell phone.
sounds like someone gets out of line and yowls out of turn, followed by an ass-kicking.
Pups! Sometimes when the parents kill something for dinner the pups will make an outlandish yipping yapping racket. Sounds like all hell has broken loose.
Finally warm again here too. Bout time. And no rain in sight for a change.
No luck with the trail cam by the brush pile. Just caught more deer wandering around.

we could use a little rain the last 2 in really made for bean production. all of a sudden BOOM. the muncher cucumbers had more blossoms. i suppose i need to water them.
It seems at least like the soaking we got earlier in the year has allowed 2 good cuts for hay in these parts. 3rd crop still a tossup.
The going price is back down to $3.50/bale for 2013 product. Last year was more, for Gawd Knows from When. Feed still pushing the envelope (it's a commodity, don't 'cha know).
Likin' that Telemundo Packer coverage, pansy? The AM radio works fine as long as you have the mute for both the TV and the radio close at hand, but in any case I would prefer their announcers to Joe Buck and Packer-Hatin' Troy Aikman.
i am waiting to finish dexter. i don't do pre-season. i prefer zen football. so espanol futbol might be good.
Johnny Jolly looks good. I managed to catch most of last weeks game, but the 2nd half with a lead was more "interesting" for evaluating those who may be cut.
And you can also go back to pre- in later-season rants amongst friends&family members who know you do that shit occasionally, and mention how great the guy they let go is doing elsewhere, while the guy they kept either stubbed his toe onto the DL or coughed up the ball at least once per $25K he makes.
I hope we get rain soon enough that (if there's still time) we DON'T end up with dead leaves in early September instead of Fall color, like last year.
Annual Drought. Figure out when to stop mowing, and you got the somewhat furry pasture for a lawn, but it ain't golden brown like the meticulous folks up-'n-down the block.
meh on the lawn. whatever. today's rain w/ help.
Make it a little less crunchy underfoot, anyway.
Sunday will be 3 months 'till Turkey Bloat Day and 4 months 'till Christmas. Yay.
And 9 days 'till the kids go back to school. Time to jack someone up in a WalMart parking lot for their shelf-fresh school supplies.
More Hot on the way, maybe the stifling kind. See if we can get the AC to shut down. Better pre-emptively replace the filter.
farmer- is pr mike still with us? It's been a while, and I'm awol a lot. Not sayin' I'm out of the loop or anything.
my pole beans not picked yesterday + the 3+ in rain it was a bumper pick. enough for basil cat.
Long Form birth certificate list that as Rathbone, Basil, Cat?
my cat basil LOVES beans. especially pole beans. which i discovered when i found mauled beans in the dinning room. he likes frozen peas too.
pjk - little over a year ago, june 2012, was the last message.
just think, at this time next summer we'll still have two more summers to get through before we find out if Hillary will be prez.

in the words of john oliver. we do NOT have to speculate YET! shit.
can we concentrate on offing the teabags for 2014.
Oh jeezis, you mean i have to spend the next 13 months concentrating on Liz Cheney and Matt "ding dong" Bevin and that asbestos festival princess from West Virginia? I'm so glad i gave up blogging years ago.
*
well, the gnews media. we can ignore it ALL.
Slow news days are the worst for such speculation and opining.
Also the worst for reports of shots fired or high-speed chases.
I'm guessing we don't qualify, but if I got the numbers right (percentage of premium, not percentage of gross income) the insurance exchanges look pretty damned attractive compared to the overpriced shit we have through work- which they are telling us is "affordable".
Ahead of the last-ditch grab for cash by our current carrier (think DISEASE), who informed us months ago we could limit our premium increase to 12-24% if we re-upped before Dec. 31, or look for a ballpark 48% increase on Jan. 1.
Sounds like fear-mongering to me.
Akin to Fishing for Suckers from a Fax Machine.
Strangely, it's been years since we saw a Cobra form listing just exactly what our whole premium is; we're just supposed to believe that we're only on the hook for 30%.
If last year was the see how it goes from here on out post, that's the last one I remember.
i see obama care is the slippery slope to single payer. BWAH HA HA HA HA. + businesses see the light.
It appears there are more skeptics re;Syria in Congress than there are Harleys in Milwaukee this weekend.
Including bloodless hump McCain, who was all "we must ACT!" until he either got or wrote the memo.
Lots of concerns, some legit, but nothing really worth coming back until a week later than the end of anyone else's Summer vacation.
Slummertime beers this week included Rolling Rock, regular Leinie's & Pabst, in descending order. Stoked up the Weber grill 3 days running, low on inspiration (and $) for day 4.
Maybe the local take&bake pizza place is open. Works pretty good with a low fire and a heavy-duty aluminum pan, but somebody better man the door because Jesus Tap-Dancing Christ that pan holds the heat!
Probably not an issue in the days of asbestos oven mitts.
Hope you all had a good Postal holiday.
i wish we could do an old fashioned siege.
I been drinking the Harpoon summer beer. Tried some of that Leinie's summer shandy too but it tasted like wet cardboard. Summer, where'd it go?
*
maybe it was the trip to NY state.
meh. beer.
probly just shouldn't put lemonade in beer to begin with.

the original owner of Corona got pissed when he got wind of touristy places serving his "perfect" beer with a lime or lemon.
Until he saw the sales numbers.
That Nat Geo documentary was pretty much turned into a 1 hour Corona commercial when I first saw it. The trial run was pounding out 20 million beers in a day (no mention if that was including barrels or cans). Thought they could get maybe another 10% if they had to ramp it up.
Keeps your risk of scurvy low if you get citrus in your beverage selection. But F@CK regular V8 or reconstituted OJ.
And "Sunny Delight"? The shit tastes like PEEL & RIND juice with water and Orange Dye #24.
Broke down and picked up a .75L of Flor de Cana 7yr last weekend and some Mexican sugar Coca-cola. I might get 1 of those before the wife and eldest daughter polish it off. sans Lime.
I still like Leine Red if it's fresh on tap. Not partial to any of their other offerings.
sorry. i do not like beer. fruity sweet malt liquor is STILL BEER.
serving his "perfect" beer with a lime or lemon.
keeps the flies off the top of the bottle.

i suppose. i do tea in sumer. iced tea.
RAIN!!!! nice t storm.
i drink the iced tea year round.
Saw some German 5 liter mini-keg at the local beer depot last weekend. Keeping in mind that they sell 16 oz. Heineken cases for $25.99 +tx, $17+ seems way out of line for 5l. "convenience".
Rauchsbier (smoke) of some sort.
$38.99 +tx.
I'd sooner drop the $29.99 on the Flor de Cana 12yr, because (a) it's cheaper and (b) it won't disappoint anyone.
Watch out for Terry Schiavo side effects with that iced tea; oh wait, maybe you gotta be washing down Xenadrine or HydroxyCut to get that result. And some Sensa with a side of Sudefed.
Clay Matthews hugging Kaepernick on the sidelines seemed to take the happy out of his happy feet.
I guess the refs couldn't have f@cked up the call unless he made the hit.
I think the corners are a bigger problem than most anything else right now. At least the game was entertaining to everyone besides the guy swan-diving off the catwalk.
jeez, not drinking beer really saves money. i am finishing off an old bottle of whiskey so i can transfer the new kessler in plastic. should last me a decade or 2.
I look at it this way, pansy; drinking at home saves me way more that hittin' the local tavern.
There was a day when I (thought I) could afford it, but it probably sucked money away from things I SHOULD have done.
And I'm getting Rolling Rock 30-packs in line with 60 cent Diet Cokes at work. My dream beer? No. But I'll use the word palatable loosely here.
Kessler & what, even if I've asked before. Not much of a straight-up (neat if you're English) guy anymore. So if you LIKE Kessler, it ain't bad with anything, right?
Been a long time since we had anything of the demon spirits around besides rum. An occasional bottle of tequila, but as far as gin or vodka, probably 15 years.
Whiskey, bourbon, etc? Crown Royal Reserve or some such shit, maybe a Bushmills or Jameson about as far past.
Ya sure don't want my ex-neighbor's house brand- Old Thompson. Like $10 per 1.75 liter.
No resemblance to Jack & Coke unless you strain it through used gym socks beforehand.
well, its a mixer. JD's too much now. and since i can only do small jigger a day. i can HANDLE pro 3 drinks easy. but i never was a 'drinker'. i am the perfect designated drinker. tho drunk people are so boring. looking forward to my pink pussycats. whicker sours just ain't as good.
Not to encourage you, but alcohilISTS say spirits lose their spirit after opening; like once you're down to 40% left (like more air than fluids), invite people over or do some baking or BBQ sauce experiments, because it's on the downhill.
Our rum lives in the freezer. I find it best to have all ingredients as cold as possible to avoid rapid dilution.
more fer the farmer- the plastic tailgate handle broke on MoL's '99 Ranger. Dealer says we go through those, got 3 of 'em in stock.
Handle, not mechanism.
Did I mention, plastic?
$36.28+tax.
She (MO-Zilla) tried to re-fi today and they said try again in January after a few things drop off.
Maybe buying a new furnace would help her credit rating! hehndeedy.
the whiskt i had over a decade or so still seemed the same. sounds like the same ilk that says get new spices every year. i call bullshit. i have 30 year old onion powder that does fine in my scalloped potatoes. i am afraid to use new. the old stuff is just right. did put like basil in my spaghetti sauce today tho.and parsley.
We're more likely to use the last of something than have it sit too long in the spice rack.
New spices? To what end, impressing holiday guests?
Hell, they're lucky if we clean the house and clear off the driveway.
Tailgate handle replacement successful. Ford gives you a nice wide access panel thru which you can replace the whole works if you needed to.
Likely to be my major accomplishment fot the weekend.
the new spices is ridiculous. and what exactly does a damn bay leaf add?????
i refill the dill and garlic powder every year because they grow like weeds. Chives too. And can grow basil year round in pots on a windowsill. Gotta have basil for spaghetti sauce.
Lots of applesauce this year.
I haven't bought any whiskey in quite a while. I kinda got sick of it (as in drinking way too much of it). Switched to Sambuca for the occasional after dinner pop instead.
