it seems hogs are under control for the time being. however, nature never sleeps. when one invasive species is eradicated, another moves in. enter... the chupacabra, or devil dog; half wolverine, half bat, but definitely full blooded devil. i had to call upon all my cunningness just to get close to him. still, after killing him, even i was too apprehensive to get close enough to be in the pic.
Just some poor half starved Coyote - domestic dog half breed! What next, zombies? Any excuse for no Hogs!........
Am here in Yakima, WA. Left Olympia yesterday and came over to see my Sister and Brother-in- law, on my way home to Arizona. Leaving here tomorrow headed for Boise, Twin Falls, Idaho area. Next day from Idaho and try to get through Salt Lake city to Fillmore, Utah, where there is a great resort right along the freeway just North of Fillmore. Very clean, nicely taken care of and very decently priced....$59 - $79.00 range but comparable to much more expensive places. Next days jump to Kingman, AZ through Vegas and then home to Vail, AZ.
While here, because of the Agriculture, Yakima is Pick-up truck central, so going to look around for a new truck. Got rid of mine when I retired and been driving BJ's Subaru Outback for the last few years. 5th Subaru and NONE have gone less than 250,000 - 300,000 miles with no major problems. Looking for a "Cream Puff" truck.....Can be used, but low mileage and I know what I'm looking for. Found exactly what I was looking for in Olympia, but not going to pay $46,000 for a depreciating asset, since I can't write them off any more. Also, as a Arizona resident, don't have to pay Washington State sales tax. Saves a few bucks for this poor retired senior citizen.....
Anyway will try and keep you posted, somewhat.

Just noticed thqt the Packrat emoticon I'm using appears to be female....No reflection on my individual tastes, just a temporary fill-in til I can get home...................LOL
