The Old Folks Home

We have foxes here but you never see them. I average seeing maybe 2 a year, crossing the road. Because of conservationists we have a glut of coyotes. In Michigan it is a $10000 fine for shooting feral cats. I dont endorse mass mayhem but there must be a better balance. My feeling is that there are enough wildlife areas that we dont need to cry over killing predators on residential or agricultural properties and i have no sympathy for pet owners who allow them to stray from their own yard. Fortunately my neighbors are mostly responsible and we have peace in the neighborhood.

A few years ago i was afraid to go out in my back yard at night because there were so many coyotes. They used to sit on th edge of my yard and howl (screech?) They didnt sound like the coyotes in the westerns.

X2 we quit walking due to coyotes. They would howl on either side of us almost like which one of us they would take. Or both. Not so bad now more and more people moving into area.
 
Here if we have any come on our property we can and will shoot them But I have never seen any on our property. They will come close, they have been right on the edge of our property. But our dogs keep them away. Our Pit does not play well with others.

Today I am making homemade sauce with most everything from the garden.

Guess we will be having some pasta for supper.

Mark Harmon and Pam Dawber (Mork and Mindy) used to drive by my parents house a few times a summer when I was a kid, '80s to early '90s. I saw them a couple times at our gas station. They had a summer home down a dirt road in about the middle of state forest land with a private pond.
When we were teens a buddy's mom would drop us off near the pond and we would sneak in and poach their fish Lol! Had it stocked with palomino trout.
Don't think they own it anymore, haven't heard of anyone seeing them in yrs.

I used to see Robert Redford a lot..I used to ski. Saw him in the ski shop...and often saw Donny and Marie up on the slopes, with Robert R. Man, Robert Redford is short!
 
The one that says that the gibbs character is belasarius's son. The link is fine but the statement is incorrect. Not father and son and gebbs is mis identified in the picture.

I accidentally posted a link on France's strict gun laws.

Big Kurt fan here, too. I even liked "Escape from New York" and that Quentin Tarantino "Death Car" movie. He was my teen crush back in the day.... (Anyone remember Tiger Beat magazine?)

Dennis Miller is short, too. Very short. Height is listed as 5' 9"... If so, I'm 5' 9" and that ain't so.
