The Great Outdoors

I actually hate having to kill mice if/when they get in the house.  Little fargers are just trying to survive  I'd honestly feel awful killing a raccoon or something. But it's a necessary evil I guess.

a geccko got stuck in a glue mouse trap i had from my mouse escapades last year...he was going after all the bugs that the thing traps....anyway he was on there for like two weeks...and each day or so my girl would tell me hes moved...im like no way hes alive much less moving...then a week later she goes into the garage and the litle farger is gone...this cat a centimeter at a time wiggled his way off that trap over a almost three week period and made it out....pretty amazing

Dude's got a job to do, everyone needs to know about their great new low rates.

So I was out golfing at the course I work at the other day and hit a ball up near the pond on hole 12. As I get close to the edge I see a shteinton of crayfish everywhere right at the edge reaching up to eat grass. By far the biggest crayfish I've ever seen...I lived next to a creek when i was younger and there were always some small ones down there, but these things looked like small lobsters


And shortly after I took this picture, one of the geese turned it's head to look up at the tree above and squawked...and some sort of hawk/eagle/crow took off and flew away like it was scared. Geese are badasses.

So...pass on the rot weiller and get geese?

Probably the best advice I've ever had.

They are mean mother fargers...especially when they've got some fresh hatched babies

I haven't seen trees on a golf course in like 3 years.

Our course is only like 6500 or so from the tips, but it's a little tight and there are a ton of trees that get in your way if you're not on the fairway. It plays really tough, a lot of the public play come in thinking they'll put up a good score and walk away with rough days.

Every year we get at least two geese couples who decide our parking lot islands are sacred ground.  So that results in them getting 8 parking spots each.  You have to watch out for them walking outside.  My coworker was walking up steps from the parking lot and got more or less attacked.  I just wish i had a camera rolling.  So in summary.  Geese while awesome to look at, are ignorant agressive pitbulls.

If you fight back they aren't so tough.

We had a deer die in our pond at the cabin. Not really sure how it got in there, but hey say wounded animals will go to water. Most likely the deer was hit on the road or clipped. So instead of wading into the pond and trying to drag it out, we put about 800 bullets through it in order to sink it. Well obviously that didn't work. Apparently the fatty tissues inside act like a plug to the holes. We should of bought defensive rounds to blow out the backside, but at the time I wasn't thinking correctly(ie drunk). Last reports were that it's all but decayed, only a small part of the deer was still floating. I guess we'll skip getting in the pond for the next few months...

Drinking and shooting firearms.

We finally got around to ripping our dilapidated deck down.  To recap, the idiot who built it 10 years ago didnt use pressure treated wood, but used Trex on top.  As we were taking the deck down, we found 15 lizard eggs that were in nests in the crumbling wood.  I have the eggs incubating in the garage, hoping to save a few of them.

Sounds like a Jurassic Park reboot.
