Snarking On A Tropical Becker Island

[Galeocerdoshark]

Cool pics GShark! Kinda jealous of the history Europe has to offer.

Thanks Aiki. It sure is interesting to have all that stuff around. However, it's a good thing most of it is literally history now though.

Down in Asheville NC right now. Hiking the Linville Gorge Loop Monday. Hope to knock it out in 12-14 hrs. I thought it would be fitting to get pictures of my Horace Kephart Bk62 in the North Carolina Mountains.

Did you need to clean the carbs?

 

[tanglediver]

Those backyards need to be started up on a regular basis.

Speaking of snarkbusters, I think I'm ready (time allowing) to test fit the winch.

New knife day for moi...



First time in a dozen years I got some money back on my tax return. Actually got to spend some on myself. Currently sanding the scales and treating the sheath.

It only took a smidgeon of trimming.

Close enough.

Excellent! That is a monster

 

[tanglediver]

I agree, when I took it for a drive, I found out how much of a monster it really is! I have to rethink my front suspension because of the sheer weight of it. I'll call the local spring shop back that added leaves to it before. I need an expert opinion, they set me up perfectly last time with just the right amount of lift.
I think a rear locker would have been the better upgrade at this point. I like what I hear about Ox lockers.

I just happened to look out of the shop today in the afternoon, and I saw a smaller bird chasing around after a red tailed hawk. Nothing new, at first I thought it was a mockingbird. Then the hawk pulled wings in close, nose dived, and plunged about 15 or 20 feet right toward another bird flying below it, that I hadn't noticed, and CAUGHT IT IN MID AIR, (which was obviously a pigeon), and with the smaller bird, (the pigeon's mate) in hot pursuit, made its way to a nearby power pole to land with its prey. Right about then I kind of freaked out because I got to witness the capture. When I turned around, and back again, there came another hawk, which immediately joined in on the fresh kill, (obviously a family member or mate of the first hawk), and they both commenced to feasting. Dead pigeons lying around on the ground are not new to me, but watching the kill right in front of me was extraordinary.
