Squirrel stew is one of my favorites. And breaded fried backstrap.

While we are on the subject, while looking for a picture of how we made fried squirrel (dammit -- it is permanently lost on my old puter) I accidentally found this -- Absolutely delicious:

Tiger lily buds fried in butter. (*drool*)

½ stick butter
½ cup chopped scallions
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ cup canned tomatoes

2 cups green lima beans
2 cups corn cut from cob
2 cups sliced okra
4 medium potatoes; cut up.
1 bay leaf
1/8 teaspoon thyme
. Hot red pepper to taste.
. Salt to taste
. Riesling wine to cover
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Sauté squirrels in butter until lightly browned; add onions and garlic and sauté 2 minutes while stirring.

Add Riesling wine to cover squirrels and simmer until tender. Add balance of ingredients, add additional wine to cover, and simmer until stew thickens. Serve with cornbread.

Not asking if you are unhappy with the medical system.

I've never seen a line of people waiting for a chance to get a family doctor. Just curious.
Like I say Ontario has it's own rules I live in BC and it has it's own rules. It has been an issue across the country, doctor shortages. Otherwise, it's all on each province, you'd have to ask them not me.

Walkerton, Ont is also the same town that over 2,000 people were sick because of water born illness and 7 people died as well. Because their water system was being mismanaged, back in 2000. it was a huge scandal, seems Walkerton Ont has it's share of issues.

How do you clear them brother?

With a broom when dry powder.

With car brush/ice scraper if it's wet or icy.


20 panels takes me about 15 minutes to clear. My roof is very walkable and using a ladder on the deck it's only about 7' from deck to roof.


On a bright sunny day you can get away with a 1/2 ass cleaning and let the sun melt away the rest.

If i buy anymore panels I'm going for bifacial to cash in on the snow reflecting light on to the back of the panels.

I had a house with solar panels years back. I never had to clean the....the sun always took care of that for me. Wish I had them now.

I betcha if you appeared at my side right now, I could show you an iguana in less than two minutes after we leave the Sneakydicker Househole. 🙃

I would take them out with my crossbow, but the Red Witch worries -- even though the landowner wants me to do it, she thinks it may be somehow illegal. (It might be...)

So I don't. Unless they come here. Then, all restrictions are off. I've only shot three over the years.

Oh. I have nailed two gators for Ricky (my bueno Indian neighbor). Take a lookit this one on his back lawn that I nailed right between the eyes -- this is how you tell a wild gator from a penned gator: the bumps on his back are sharp; they get worn from other gators climbing over in captivity ---

This is my neighbor Ricky's back yard. The gator was a few feet away from the pine tree on the right.
I have some good Gator recipes if your interested! I wouldn't be surprised if Iguana had a similar taste.
