No but the shortenrott hair is hell on squirrels .

It's green and wet .
I did stop for a minute yesterday and really take it all in . The SE corner let a doe and a fawn maybe a button buck in and on the way up the W side there were 2 does , 2 fawns and a yearling unk , crossed the road also going into the property .

I sat for just a few minutes and it really started to settle in . I'm sitting in what will be the dinning room in the shade of some probably 30 ft mast oaks ( I guess they're Mast oaks they sure look like a ships mast ) , and there must be 40-50 more , split about 1-20 with hickory .
I have black berries and muscadine and maybe , I haven't seen fruit yet , mulberries . That may not seem like a big deal but being from the land of pinion pines and Utah juniper with 200 yo trees barely 20 feet and "only" 32-40" across the stump inches above the dirt .

I can smell fruit trees to but I'm suspect that they aren't natural .

Sounds like RB is still a little too far from Texas.

About an hour and a half from Texarkana .........

Just an old desert rat , sand and sage in my blood .
I grew up and lived most of my life a 2 hr drive and a 30 min hike from being able to sea from the top of the Sierra's to Utah and the Pacific . Looking around a little we could shoot 700+ yd between sand dunes , 2000 + down an empty sand beach ...... Now I can shoot in my front yard but I have to mow and cut out another 10-15 really tall trees to get 100 yd which should be plenty for almost all of my needs .

It's a tough change even if I really use the long long range stuff .
