    Lol.

    I've got no kids, well, none that are not furry or 4 legged, so it's hard for me to totally relate. However, something tells me that you've got some really good stories. :cheers:

    Just one picture from the zoo today. We had the place all to ourselves. Well, minus the residents;)

    This guy was very photogenic. He watched us every step we made. Nobody else was around so I knew it was really watching us. Very intently. I told my wife that we were being sized up.

    Very cool, and an experience we won't ever forget.

    I think my wife wanted to put a sweater on him. I don't think it would've turned out like she wanted.

    This guy's paws were massive. Like rip your head off with minimal effort massive.

    Would you rather get attacked by a tiger or grizzly bear. Discuss amongst yourselves.

    We went into town today so I picked up another 5 gallon diesel can and tonight I put a air vent in it along with a new spout, this will give us a total of 15 gallons of diesel.

    I guess it's time I finish the area we'll keep the backhoe for the winter, maybe start a fire in the outdoor fireplace and then start the clearing of another 3-4 trees.

    Grizzly bear. A bear is likely to leave you alone after you play dead. A big cat? Well, they only eat meat. Bears are omnivores. So they might just leave you alone. I've heard enough stories where people escape from bears. Tigers, you only hear how you never hear from the attacked people ever again.

    Just recently I saw a video about a Chinese group driving through an open zoo in China.
    The family had an argument and the lady got out of the car. As soon as she did a tiger grabed her and ran. The daughter jumped out on a knee jerk reaction to help and she too was grabbed and dragged off. The husband jumped out and realized what was happening and jumped back in the car screaming.

    The fact they showed that video was surprising but it does highlight human stupidity. Stay behind the glass and fencing and be glad we developed enough to cage them and not the other way around!!!
    :startled:

    There where even sighns everywhere do not get out of your vehicle!

    Definitely the tiger. They will kill with a bite to the neck, but bears will eat you alive and screaming.

    Lol. What a statement to start the morning on FHC! :)

    Taped and mudded some of the kitchen ceiling drywall and did some bill paying before work this am.

    As I've been working on the ceiling not only were all the joints untaped, gaps left at the intersection with the wall drywall, but whoever put up the sheetrock using galvanized...yes galvanized nails.:)
