I like to keep some around. I noticed in the very beginning of the ammo hoarding that the shotshells disappeared fast, almost like people were preparing for a rodent or snake apocalypse. The components to reload them quickly went out of stock. Like Garuda said they used to sell for about $10.

Arkansas bridge inspector fired!!! Well, what you know that guy was right! https://wreg.com/news/watch-arkansas-officials-hold-briefing-on-i-40-bridge-situation/?fbclid=IwAR3Q1RTqwUY9qPbsgMhDKOior3a7k2hKRWaWWc5fo4r2udtWX-93nD7bz1s

To be honest I didn’t know you could eat them, But I never had alligator either. I used to see monster gar when I was a kid down south.

Good to know! I haven’t made that trip west in a long time. I wondered how bad the back up was. I hope to head that way this year.

I ain’t volunteering to drive over first! But hey, I saw them interview an “expert” today, they said this kind of damage wouldn’t cause a bridge collapse.

The dogs learn fast! My dog learned the sound of ring camera alerts real fast! It’s surprising to me how may words they learn too!

Sorry I missed that deal too!

I don’t know. To me that looks like the the edge of the plate that is riveted. It’s not a real clear photo.

https://www.autoblog.com/2021/05/13/hummer-h2-burns-hoarded-gas/ I don’t think this was cost effective at all!

Looks completely broke all the way through. I reckon that inspector made the right call!

Arkansas RDOT, just did a live update about the bridge. Basically the contract inspector thought the crack in the bridge was so bad he immediately dialed 911 to shut down the traffic. Supposed to release drone photos of the damage soon.

Yah, real bad!

The Major just released a statement that repairs would take months, not days. I think that is more likely.

Now they crashing gas buddy!

The way things are going, it wouldn’t surprise me.

TDOT says no time frame for closure. https://www.bizjournals.com/memphis/news/2021/05/11/hernando-de-soto-bridge-closed-tdot.html

Midway has some Federal 38 Spec. 158 Lead round nose. $55 a box. Nope sorry I can not bring myself to pay those prices. I will just conserve what little I have. I think $ 30 was the highest I paid during Obama panic. And I didn’t buy much.

Have seen mostly Cubs there but they do have a fair amount of bears around the cove.

Our dogs have always been considered family. We take care of them for life. Our last two dogs have been shelter dogs and I won’t ever buy from a dog breeder again.

Filled up yesterday. Told my kids to do the same. I have to head south soon for a planned trip, so fingers crossed. Checked gas buddy and prices this morning were ok locally and in Alabama. The minute declarations of emergency are announced, public panic begins.

I think it is a reasonable thing to do.

That is awesome especially for a dog in their teens! I couldn’t log that many miles myself. I have in past years done 5k’s, 10 milers and a couple half marathons. But I am a bit older now. I did go 5.5 miles a week ago. But none of my miles are in the mountains with a pack. My hat is off to you both!

That’s a lot of miles! Definitely a good exercise program!

Thanks for the update, answers some questions. I read that Alex was a veteran who served in Afghanistan and worked to help veterans in Arizona.
