Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Dog The dogs first bird

Up in the mountians hunting ptarmigan with our young English Pointer. The area is crap, as this is the only bird we've seen, but at least the scenary is nice.



Having a midday rest.

I know English pointers that if you look away when he is 20 yards right in front of you then back at him he will be running across that distant hill 5 miles away in the picture, then look down at your boot and look up he will be on another hill, another 5 miles away on the other side of you



Nice Pictures. Good looking EP pup

The best birds are always found in cauliflower patches. Isn't it the same over there?

Seriously though, it is reindeer lichen. Where we were, it was about 6 inches thick. It can be strenuous to walk on because it is often like walking on a sponge.

There is a lot of reindeer lichen in Michigan's UP and Canada. I don't walk on it though.

Lots of bogs and Fens up there too. It's not recommended that you walk on them. You might sink up to your waist or even deeper.
