I take my hat off to the USA team , they never gave up and definately believed they could do it ..... Great goal by Landon Donovan . should be a great game Saturday
Yep well done to the USA. The Aussie's didnt do any good so Im jumping on the USA band wagon. Go the US
Haven't been on for quite a while, but don't believe I'll be making this trip gents. I've been doing some remodeling( complete new bathroom in about a month, new furnace and a/c already installed, new windows almost all installed). Plus I've been using too many vacation days up........gotta save a few for whitetail season. Disappointing that I'll miss out meeting you fine folks. But I'll be looking forward to reading all of the stories and viewing the pics. Best of luck to everyone!
I sent a PM to Will today stating the same. I just can't find the scratch to make it this year. Between my wife's hours getting cut back and unexpected expenses around the house I won't be able to make an out of state hunt this year.
Make sure you keep receipts on anything that will make your home more energy efficient as it should still be tax deductible I believe. Tax breaks were written in for home improvements that improve energy efficiency that I believe don't expire until next year if my memory serves me correctly. Sorry to hear that you may not be making it, we'll take plenty of pictures and have plenty of stories to make you WISH you'd made it out......:D
Real sorry to hear that Greg, looking forward to meeting ya Fella .... I got you a UK XXL hoodie over here , I'll bring it over when I come across the pond and get Will to post it too ya . Likewise Coug , would have been great to meet ya , another time maybe
I cannot take it anymore! There has got to be a way! Money should never be the thing that keeps amigos apart, especially when the heart and desire is there! Therefore... I have about fifty watercolor wildlife giclees (GEE-CLAYS) which are now up for sale! They are printed on 140 lb watercolor paper and are roughly 22"x 30" (when and if trimmed, they fit nicely into a 20" x 30" frame). The actual image size is 18"x 27" (give or take an inch). Each is signed by the artist (me, Rob, and Greg Balvin). Although these prints where generated from digital media using a thermal inkjet printing process, when under glass it is difficult to distinguish these prints from actual watercolors. I am selling them for $80 USD each. 75% of the proceeds will be donated to the "get a hunter(s) to Colorado cause" Each print costs me about $25 to print. I would like to at least recover this cost. I will post five per day for the next ten days. I will ship the print to you free of charge.... keep in mind, giclees of this size and quality normally sell for over $125 unframed. If you want one, say so in this post. Also, if you have something that is sitting around collecting dust, then donate it and sell it here...let's generate some money and get our buds hunting! It's the brotherly thing to do! Giclee #1 "Apex Hunter" Giclee #2 "Gentlemen's club" Giclee #3 "Home" Giclee #4 "Nanny-Nanny Boo-Boo" (Dave, this is you) Giclee # 5 "Grounded for Life"
Love the Picture of the Elk Will , but not enough money to buy it , PM me your paypal account and I'll donate $30 anyway " you can find me another shed or something if thats ok "
Thanks Dave, I will match your $30...so that makes $60 so far. Giclee #6 "walking on top of the world" Giclee #7 "On His Way" Giclee #8 " Walking the line" Giclee #9 "Song Dog" Giclee #10 "First Snow"

Great penalty by Donovan , you guys were on the recieving side of some harsh tackles and should have won that game .
Soccer just ain't our "cup of tea.....:D" Not sure how people can watch the sport, I played it and it's fun to play, but watching is just BORES me to tears..... Someone wants to pick up one of the Rutbuster packs from me, I'll donate the proceeds to the "Hunters Helping Hunters Fund."
