Brian, Pete and Rich,

I was talking to a buddy of mine up around you guys and he told me he had the only dogs in that area that could run a rabbit once the frost hit. :shock: He said he might have to drive down here and go with me a few times this year just so he could run with some good dogs. I didnt want to tell you this but I figured if you started having trouble running you could always get ahold of him. :lol:


Rich,
Second deer season is Dec. 2nd - Dec. 5th

I didnt say it was your dad, I said it was my buddy that lived up around you guys. The last I knew Redtick didnt live up there around you. Did you move back in with him?

ran good on sat. shot 3. then sat. night blew a head gasket on the wifes car at around 1 a.m. coming home from a party about 10 miles outside of town. a wasted a day on sunday trying to get the car to town, vacation day on monday was a complete waste of time took 3 hrs. to get to the heads hope to have it running by wed. night. a word of advice if you own a newer V6 grand am pay someone to have head gasket's installed it will be worth the cost just in the aggarvation it will save!!!!!!! Aaron, dont know who your buddy is but if he has to tell people how good his dogs are they cant be that good, hahahahaha.
