Very cool, even with the ads!
Thanks for posting Terry!!

I had this old, rotted Model A truck door lying around and decided to do something with it, so I hung it on the wall:



Really wasn't the result I was looking for, so I gave it to my buddy that does my striping & lettering and we came up with this:



I think it looks like it belongs there now.

LOL.     I was looking at the stuffed coyote, then quickly glanced up at the Barrett Jackson sign that I first thought said "save the mammals". I thought that was a odd combination, so I looked again.
Yep the door needed something, maybe an old time pic of Betty Grable in Joe's Garage, lol.

That door makes the wall look quite proper indeed! Yes sir! 

Anybody ready for some good dance music ?

I never thought this sound would ever come out from the south again, but it makes me just SO happy to hear this original Lone Star band.
Its admittingly more of a Bakersfield sound, but still.... WONDERFUL !

My soul sings the blues, but my heart beats country all the time....

   I thought it was a weasel at first glance. Looks small for a coyote.

I see 1 or 2 coyotes every week. Unfortunately, they're usually on the side of the road dead. I did see a live one a month or two ago......very unusual to see them in the daytime.

We have quite a few around us...in summer especially I can hear them with their plaintiff whine/yowl.
so far they have left the cattle alone the neighbors have.
What is a touch more of a concern is the black bear that was wandering around last spring. About time for them to wake up and start poking around. I hope he doesn't come back. First one anyone around here has seen in over a decade.

  Are any of you down south having problems with feral pigs? I read an article yesterday on them and they're now in Alberta. Saskatchewan, Manitoba. They haven't been able to cross into BC yet as I guess the Rocky Mountains are in the way, but I'm sure one day they could make their way.

I've only seen 1 in my lifetime, it was in Texas near Wichita Falls. If I remember correctly, Joe came to Texas for a hog hunt a decade or so ago.

I haven't seen any around my place, but I know there are places in MO and across the border in AR where they are fairly thick. I believe in TX the season on them is 365 days a year.

There is a BIG TIME population of wild pigs here in Louisiana and a big hunting season as well.

Rich, it's a grey fox, the Coyote wasn't visible in that pic, but it is here. I moved the Fox to show the size difference
