bass...bear skull...carcass nearby, bones scattered about. bunch of
turkey vultures were on it before i drove up.

nc bass fishing - no fish here, butfound along the way to bassvalhalla.
 

deer...dead people. don't know if you can read the first marker -
rebecca cahoon, born 1780 died 1854. way out in the middle of nowhere,
nc. as fine a burial spot as a body could want. about a mile down the
gravel road is d. squire's marker. "died as he lived. a good man".

hangin' at the entrance to your fine home.

thanks mark... since i was on private property and didn't know the
story behind the thing i figured i shouldn't mess with it. the farm is
huge, and the owner leases hunting rights to a select group (i'm not
one)for a big fee....they kill a lot of bear, deer, ducks, swan and
geese on that property. i've no interest in the killing, just the
wildlife viewing (which is terrific), and the catching and releasing of
fish. i treat it like a little piece of yellowstone in carolina, and
don't remove anything...well, except, one very fine 8 pound bass i had
mounted. g

You obviously don't know the meaning of the word "keed."

One who "keeds," makes a plaster casting of partially de-fleshed bear
skulls--still attached to a length of backbone and spinal components.

Of course, you have to be prepared with the plaster casting materials,
without knowing when, if ever, you are likely to run up on a partially
de-fleshed bear's skull--still attached to a length of backbone and spinal
components.

Finished my Capstone Presentation today. Just gotta complete final exam and
I'm ready to take the walk on May 8th!

Hope to see ya soon!

An Ocean Kayak Trident Prowler...I think it's about 13'...sit on top.
has rod holders and tracks well. but, my butt hurt after 4 hours
despite upgraded seat. it's an adjustment...especially in organizing
necessary gear. still...hope to use it a good bit this summer.

Thanks for the link to your facebook photo site...terrific photos there.
where are you now?

Got home Sunday, going through the shots I took and putting some on my web site.

I've got a couple of Wilderness Systems Rides, pretty similar to yours.
