We need the rain lake and streams are low.

Well, @Smitty335 you are getting your wish over next week or so. Really it's okay with me too.

Where has @Caper Been?

Anyone have any experience with converting small outboards to propane? I have a propane powered Tahatsu 5 hp and I love it...no messy gasoline and no maint fussing with corn gas. I have a new 2.5 hp Suzuki I want to use on a raft and it would be wonderful if it ran off propane....any ideas??

There are conversion kits, but you would have to research to get the right one. Assuming its a 4 stroke.

Can you run 2 stroke oil with propane? HA!

Only a guess but I think it needs to be a 4 stroke...but then I suppose oily propane would work. Olive oil mixes with salad OK.

I've seen some utube use with just hooking propane hose to the fuel inlet on the carb on generators. Fuel is fuel...right!

Any news on @Caper ?

Maybe he got a better offer.

I need his (their's) clam chowder formula. I made some yesterday and put scallops in and it was good but maybe too much garlic and not enough bacon. I know canned clams are not the right answer...used to make it with razor clams in AK. Easier to find elk meat here.

A neighbor gave me a couple lbs of last year's elk burger for the dogs...I ate it...give it to the dog and they will expect it. I gave each of them a giant Costco dog bone and they were happy.

Say goodbye to warm weather after storm chances Tuesday. @Wallace

Hope to go deer hunting the last 2 weeks of the year. The better half has the covid so don't know how that's going to work out.

Hopeful weather settles down some after this storm system comes through Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning.

Well, I got back Tuesday from 5 straight days of high 30's/ low 40's in South Texas with a constant drizzle/ light rain and stiff northeast wind... Absolutely miserable weather for that country!! I did kill a nice management buck with my bow. However, even though we have a nice concrete floor/steel wall construction skinning shed with electric winches and such, it was miserable skinning/cutting up that joker!! I have a friend that killed a very large buck down in Old Mexico and I told him that if I killed a mature buck, I'd cape it out for him. They have a hard time getting hides/capes across the border because of USDA restrictions on tick infestation... Weather forecast was a LOT nicer when I made that commitment to him!! My bad!! Got-er-dun tho and meat is aging in my barn now...

I would have loved 30’d. Haha
Sounds like you had fun. That’s all that matters.
Snow up here Tuesday.
