That’s my truck…..

Vikings get a B+ for JJ McCarthy at #10 and Broncos an F for Bo Nix at #12, WTF?

If you are a Costco member they offer insurance through Connect, American Family Insurance. I pay $2360/year for 3 vehicles in California. Excellent service and claims experience.

In the ‘70’s some of the ponds along I5 south of PDX were stocked and some surprisingly big fish were occasionally caught. Ponds were created as a source of gravel for the highway. Nice to see the kids get it; well done sir!

Canning them removes the bones, we used to take them to a guy in NE Portland who smoked and canned them; delicious!

Quite a few spey fishers as well as SH casters are fishing the lower Sacramento for shad every spring. I can’t abide the slimy bastards, caught more than my share of them below Bonneville as a kid. I will admit that smoked and canned they are delicious.
