Fun to watch her teach them how to preen their coats so they don't sink like little furry golf balls. I gotta go find the chicken feed now. Bad pic but mom isn't gonna bring them closer right now. On Memorial Day I had to make a Mallard nest rescue, on the shore by my cottage we have a Mallard nest with 8 eggs in it. About 3 o'clock Mon. aft. I notice mom leaves the nest and is quacking up a storm, so I go down and look at the nest. I discover a 5' long Fox snake and the bastard already has an egg about 1/3 in his mouth. My son and I rustled the snake into a garbage can and relocated him about a mile away. The snake put up a pretty good fight because he knew he just scored the mother load and he was ready to put the feed bag on. I must be getting soft in my older age, saved the duck nest and I didn't even kill the snake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snakes doin' what snakes do. Circle of life. No reason to extinguish it if you don't have to. People...now people I can "extinguish".

Nice work Chad and yeah there was a time where I would have killed the snake too but as Zbone says...circle of life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my sons buds is going to NMU for football. Big tall defensive end. He will help their team big time. Great player and great kid. Seems like they recruit heavily in Chicago. Four defensive linemen will be coming to NMU, as Omar Owenah from Chicago, Illinois, Eleuterio "Eli" Rivera of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Justin Gold of Wheeling, Illinois, and Hasan Jackson from Lansing, Illinois. Owenah made the CPLCA All-Academic Team, was a four-time CPS Big Shoulders All-Conference honoree, and a two time CPFLCA All-City member.

They were decent back in my day....I know of two guys they played in The NFL...Jerry Woods and Chuck Klingbeil....of course my day was 30 years ago! I remember you talking about that Chad and what a shitty experience it was...sounds like your son made the right choice. I will say the facilities on campus have improved quite a bit and of course it's a beautiful area...hopefully the football and hockey programs improve.

Absolutely no doubt,campus, the dome, weight room, etc. were all top notch and Marquette is a beautiful area, I would have loved to have seen our son gone there but the head coach was the deal breaker. Not only that, Marquette is a hell of alot closer than Bemidji. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
