Thanks for the PM and re-intro! Yep ... I'm the same Cappy that you used to know as Nevada Jim when I was the original Moderator for the Ducks Unlimited talk Forum years back. Retired in 2004, bought land and built a home in N TX near Ivanhoe (just North of Bonham) and began creating wetlands and dawg training ponds for my own personal use on 126 acres. Still hunt most every day during the season and run the dawgs 25 out of 30 days in the off season. Cappy will be 11 on January 8th. Although he's still going strong, this will likely be his last season. Us old fellas find it more difficult each year.

This morning's hunt was with Remi only. It was a pretty durn sloppy one after rain/snow here last night. Thank goodness for a 6-speed manual 4WD Jeep with mudders. It gets me places that my old Kawasaki Mule wouldn't dare try.

We ended up with a real mixed bag today: a drake Pintail and Mallard, 2 GWT and a hen Gadwall. Kept 5 year old Remi happy.













Cappy ... At my side for thirteen years, in my heart forever.

Yep: Know doubt that was you..

I bailed off the Du board,for several reason.
1.To much bickering and to much of a fews guys always trying to be the "big dog'.
2.I didnt like the way Don was treated !!
3.It just started getting really old having to explain everything to Barney & Gomer..
4.Then there was the Cap & Trade drama..that was - for me- the final straw..

Its not like I am bailing out on Du as a whole..You know I have 42 years of history with them.Its just like you said ..the older I get -the less tolerable I am to Stupidity!! and there was alot of it on there.
Anyways..glad to see your face and your pictures,and know that you didnt give up!!LOL

and as stated years ago..your yella and my yella could be twin brothers.

I still have alot of contacts from the DU board..just mainly keeping track of them by e-mail and phone.

Ps: Could you Pleez keep the rain in YOUR area.....

Good day to you Sir
