Early Birthday Gift!!!

Hello,

Yesterday Dad, Andrew, & I went to Bismarck. While we were there, Dad bought Andrew & I both a brand new Remington 870 Express shotgun!! We shopped around awhile, and bought them at Scheels.
Here is a picture of me with my shotgun after we got home.
Today, one of our hunting friends stopped by, & we had a good chat. Andrew & I showed him our guns. He said that the 870 is the most popular & reliable pump shotguns on the market.

Thank you, Dad, for a gift I will always remember.

Well, its time to go,

Jacob

Cows :(

Hello,



Today we (Dad, Andrew & I) went up to our pasture to fix the fence; put electric fence up; & to move the cows into their new cell. As Dad & I came over a hill, we saw 2 cows, a bull, & 2 calves about a mile from where they should be.



After about 15 minutes of chasing, we had the bull, 1 cow & 1 calf going the right way, but the other cow & calf were running in any direction that we didn't want them to go. That was what the cow was always doing. Well, about half way through chasing her through the neighbor's sunflower field, Andrew joined us. We got her in the right place, & then went to work on the fence.



While we were down by the water, which is just a lake in the middle of nowhere, we wanted to take some posts out of the water. Seeing as we don't have a boat, we couldn't take them out. Then Andrew found a duck boat that some hunting friends of ours have, & they said we could use it whenever we wanted to. So, Andrew & I went out on the water & brought in the posts. I have a picture of us in the boat, but it isn't on the computer, so I will put it on later.



Well, I better get going,



Jacob

BIG R/C!

Hi,
I have found yet another video for you. This time it is about a VERY big R/C (remote controlled) airplane. Now, if you watch the video, you will see that this is no small plane, having 4 engines, retracting landing gear, HUGE wingspan & fuselage length, & taking two people to operate it!


I wouldn't want to crash that thing! If you did, you would be out of a couple thousand bucks.

Time to eat,

Jacob
