I’m going to bring my shotgun and come to Arizona and you and I are going hunting for javelina. (I couldn’t kill anything if I wanted to.)

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!



Amazing Grace

by John Newton


Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.



Lamh Foistenach Abu!

LOL! I had Game and Fish come evaluate my situation. I was told there was nothing I could do, short of getting rid of my bird feeders.

It is against the law to kill or injure a javelina. I bought a B B gun, but only used plastic pellets, thinking it would scare them off.

I took aim, and pulled the trigger - and BULLS-EYE! Right on the rump! And the pig didn’t even flinch! Again, this time at the shoulder. Nothing.

I guess their hide is so thick, that nothing (legal) will penetrate it.

They travel in herds, (usually 8 - 10) and ‘claim’ their territory of 1 - 2 square miles.

They move rocks and dig up large plants, eat bulbs, and are generally quite destructive.

Invite me and I will handle the pigs, I do hunt and love bacon, roasts, do a mean BBQ rig set and would be happy to aid you in your need! Of course you could just buy a small electric fence charger, rig a fence with a three wires between wooden posts and keep them out all together! (but what fun would that be?)
