Chip Hailstone

Good morning from the Kiwalok

@Alice20160501 Yes, thousands of Geese, Seabirds and Ducks all live here through the Summer. We have a few dozen islands in our little river's delta and lagoon full of birds, we walked and picked on one of them. Today we will walk another and be done.

@HailstoneChip Is this something you found in the wild?

182 Eggs in the buckets, and 2 very tired boys.....LOL!

@Dentonandsas Mostly Canadian Geese, a few Seagulls and one clutch of 6 Eiderduck Eggs, which are green.

@HailstoneChip What kind of eggs?

@kenrummel21 If I had a Metal band I would name it "The taste of foil"

@HailstoneChip Oh I thought that was the name of your new death metal band 🤣😂😅

"Demonic anus" Ohhhhh, another insult to add to my vocabulary....

Honda 20 hrs. I'm good for props right now, Ill be out of here in a few weeks with no way to receive anything untill I go to Noorvik. If I have need by then, I'll hit you up.😀

@Frankiepdawgs My condolences to you and your dad, Frankie. May she rest easy and your dad be relieved of his pains.

@HailstoneChip Hey Mr Chip just been a little sad since Friday afternoon I lost my mom she went to be with the Lord at 3:00pm she was 83 and I was fortunate to have her that long my dad is a mess he is 84 so going to be a tough road ahead for him

Back for another prop and a cup of coffee. Found where "new rocks" are , which is now well noted and marked. Folded one blades leading edge for a couple inches and chunked off the tip. Was still close to the shack, so we came back. Very grateful I didn't break the drive shaft or gears in the underwater unit. I have another in hand, and another after that, both used but cleaned up, repaired and balanced. I sent them out to a pro for that, some years back. Aluminum props in rocky areas are the way to go.

@RidgeRu75147353 Too much for now, I got mine when it was 99$ landed. eBay is crazy.

@HailstoneChip That's a sign, buy it!!!

Strangely enough this ad came up as I was having a meltdown over a squirrel chewing its way right through my best set of tough, fairly waterproof and reversible camouflage!!! I KNOW the laptop Is listening! I didn't even call it by its name....LOL! "Partisan-M Camouflage Suit by SSO" I'm gonna tape over the camera now.....

In NYC first time in a while. Friendly greeting from the subway.

@KuzIKanDoIt We don't own a TV, a couple laptops, but for sure, its all listening

@HailstoneChip Cover the microphone as well. Even on your tvs if they are smart as well.

Its beyond Creepy. I cant salvage the old set, but I also cant find the ones I want to replace them...I hate it when good, quality clothing is phased out, like Levi Jackets and 501 Jeans....even warm and handy cammo jackets, seems that runs are limited anymore. The electronic eves dropping seems to be very common now, I wish it would phase out as well.....LOL!

@HailstoneChip I was talking, on the phone, with my daughter about hunting clothing for her boyfriend for Christmas. Yes, I shop this early. When I went to my laptop, there were AD's for KUIU hunting jackets.

@HankFarrm Yes, but you have to get them young. The old ones are leery, but the 'young and dumb' can be conditioned to have no fear of people.

@HankFarrm He made a nest of wool socks, a down jacket, the rolled up cammo suit, and 4 metal tee-shirts that were in the tote as well. Lined it all with moss and toilet paper, pages from a book...LOL!

Theres no doubt Ill need a new cache built, as Im trying to store it all outside at the moment, back in totes and needing sorting, cleaning, storing. That Bear will come back, so Im getting a plan together, all right. Just gonna go with the flow, see what happens as my bad plan becomes a good one....LOL!!

@HankFarrm I don't know what kind of help I'd get, but, for sure, the logs brought here from upriver by sled or floating is the best way. I think we will take a ride upriver and make a nice camp for such work, which I would do in Winter, and stack here, then build in Summer.....ya.

youtube.com/shorts/fadyHWL… Oh,ya, it IS listening.....creepy....
