Just got back from a bushwhack. I went to check on, then relocate, one of my trailcams. It had a few videos, one of a deer that walked right up to it, but nothing on two feet. I decided to move it further into the forest and the footing was difficult. Tall grass, ferns, and uneven ground made it impossible to see where you were stepping so it was slow going. I was able to find two game trails which were in/along a small creek that is now dried up. I put the trailcam near where the two meet. We'll see what happens. This is in Timber Rattler territory so I decided to wear my snake chaps over my snake gaiters. They both weigh nothing and are not clumsy at all. It was a breath of fresh air to not even think nor care where I stepped. I was protected to my hips. Bring 'em on!

I would love a .45/70 in a breakdown format. It would pack more nicely in a backpack. WWG makes a very nice one. A buddy of mine just dropped a large chunk of change on a CZ Checkmate Parrot race gun. Absolutely gorgeous (that's a matter of opinion), a real shooter, and turns heads. Everyone at the range wanted to know what it is. He was proud as a "peacock" shooting it. As phenomenal as the Parrot race gun is, for twice the money you can get a Razorcat race gun designed for JJ Racaza. https://www.limcat.com/razorcat https://www.wildwestguns.com/custom-guns/ak-co-pilot/

Dinotopia, A Land Apart from Time: Hunting a T. rex Artwork by James Gurney When James Gurney's Dinotopia: A Land Apart from Time first appeared in 1992, it was immediately hailed as a fully imagined world of the caliber of J. R. R. Tolkien's. Gurney's premise — of an undiscovered island where a race of mystical humans co-exists in harmony with intelligent dinosaurs — has been since reiterated over and over in numerous films and by scores of other writers. Now, Calla Editions brings Gurney's spectacular artistry to a new generation in this 20th anniversary edition. Digitally re-rendered from the original transparencies, Gurney's dramatic panoramas of Dinotopia and close-up character studies of its inhabitants — both human and saurian — take on new vitality. And as a tale of high adventure and discovery told as entries and sketches in journal form, Dinotopia presents a shipwrecked visitor's glimpse into an imagined social order, a culture, and even a cooperative interspecies technology that will satisfy lovers of fantasy and science fiction of all persuasions. This edition includes a new Afterword written by author James Gurney as well as a special section of behind-the-scenes studies and maquettes he used in developing his paintings.
