Robert, Unfortunatley the bad economy has finally caught up with us. They said that we were sheilded somewhat because of our oil and gas industry but that isn't the case now. I've been off work for a month and a half and I'm usually not one to stay off for long. I am a G F for a large union contractor in Oklahoma. I don't mind to much though, I've been a full time volunteer lately! lol
Hang in there and don't look down!
Marty

Nope havent been there im just gettin my feet wet with wildland firefighting

Hey Rob No I haven't what is it?

Hello Robert! I did a search of Ironworkers and found you. I'm also a Union Ironworker, local 584 Tulsa, Oklahoma! Its good to know other brothers volunteer! Not afraid to get dirty or get high, we walk where the devil dances and where the angels fly!

Sorry it took a bit to get back to ya..... Sounds like you're having a blast with the hunting.... :) I'm not having such luck :( with my elk hunt.. dang it... stay safe :)

hey there what u been up to?

Hey there... thanks :) That happened out at the family ranch. Sucked! Burned up 3600 acres of our place....

Hey robert hows things going in PA.. not too much here in washington state..just enjoying a little snow..take care n talk at ya later

Cool, look forward to it! I'll be going to school in Lewes..

Well, next time you're down, we should grab a drink or something! Would be nice to make a friend! lol still very new here! lol

Ya, the beach is great! you ever get down this way?

Thanks.... Well even those deer can make a nasty mess. But a moose well it's just has to much weighter behind it.... Thanks again... Have a good one ....

Hey! Thanks...I may need all the luck i can get!! If all else fails, I lam enjoying living at the beach!

Well don't see many bucks on my property... Spring I have 18 or 20 in my back yard. Can not get them to eat garlic for some reason? But Moose is my choice and if the wife goes out for the weekend then I might see about a deer in the back yard.
But with moose have enough meat for the winter,
plus the guys at the fire house love the moose!

Ok, fill me in on why when I watch your American Hunting shows you always are going for the ones with the big racks. I'm not sure if I'm missing anything but, up here in Canada we don't eat racks.
Although are deer are much bigger and less of them as when I drove through PA man. They are worse than rats. Did hear once in Florida when I was there that someone was shooting at the hunters. Not sure if was a deer, but that is what the announcer said.
You even can hunt with hand guns, we only use hand guns when my family fur trapped. Think now they have banned that ideal. Best of luck hunting!

Just be careful in those tree stands, had one guy fall out last year. One of the guys that went to that call said he traded in his tree stand for a wheel-chair.
Fell on a rock fence, did not find him till 3 hours later after he did not show up after dark.

Money is not everything... But the one who dies with the most toys wins eh! Your right, but I would like to know what it's like to not worry about that money thing. Would be nice to be able to buy what every you want. Although our dollar is close to your dollar, even though things that are made in Canada are cheaper to buy in the Good Old U.S.A. don't under stand that one. Well hope your having a great weekend, it's chilly up here and leaves are starting to change colour. Which means it's not to far before the white stuff shows up....

Now you tell me the master plan... To late, I only have 9 more years and retire. 55 will be my goal,
but like yours better. You know your getting old when your looking forward to retirement.... That sucks! Not for the new truck or house or toy, but your talking retirement...hah!

Your a crazy-man.... Wow! That sounds crazy! 1000 people in a camp, guess there was no camp fires eh!
That would take a toll on me for sure, would need to have some time off for sure.... Glad your back I guess?

Good to hear you and your crew is safe. We had one here about 2 weeks ago. Not as big as yours, but for us it was stretching the dept. pretty thin. Not my fav. in fighting grass or forest, at least with a house you know it's pretty contained. Hope they gave you some R & R time to play too?
