Sounds like a nice quaint rural existence, shithawk.

Reminds me of a fellow I knew in the middle of the Alaska Hwy, in Northern B.C., about 40 years ago, whose father was a hardcore prohibitionist arse.

In that stretch of the Alcan, you could count (and know) everybody that inhabited the area back then.

His father got word that there was some terrible, horrible person, selling pot to the local youngsters (all of whom could probably be counted on two hands).

There was; it was his son.. The same son whose prohibitionist father was constantly ranting to him about what he'd do if he ever caught the mystery pot dealer. :biggrin:

shithawk, Ever go across the street to the old school counselor, knock on the door, and in Joan Rivers tone, ask, "Can we talk?" :biggrin:

Lived in the mid-west in a variety of places during a big part of my pre-adolescent years. Some small communities do real well at minding their own business, knowing that lack of personal boundaries is a two-way street, and others go to the other extreme.

Many folks from Outside (Lower 48, etc.) talk about moving to rural Alaska or Northwest Canada and finding anonymity and privacy. The fact, more often than not, is that when you move to a small village, the folks there know how often you get mail, from whom, whether your wife and you get along, what brand of toilet paper you use, what groceries come off the airplane for you, etc.

And moving to the bush, rather than a village, every plane that passes over-head sees the new construction, and the smallness of the communities and lack of density of population, has folks you've never met before knowing ALL kinds of things about you.. Or at least thinking they do.

I used to tell folks, if you want privacy and anonymity, hang out on any street corner in downtown Seattle or L.A. at a bus stop. Not only do the people there typically not -care- who you are, what your name is, or what you're doing (as long as it doesn't mess up their day), they don't have time enough to, if they -were- interested in it. But folks in Small Town USA know ALL of your business. The only question is what they do with it.. :)

Man there is a very drunk Bear running around.

I have a 5 gallon bucket with about 2 gallons of sugar water mix, that had fermented using 15% yeast and active dry yeast.

So it would have got up into the 12% to 15% range before it stopped bubbling CO2.

When the bucket is done, I usually put it outside for when I am motivated to carry it down the hill to pour it on a compost pile.

But last night, something drank the entire bucket.

Hope I didn't give the poor thing Diabetes !

Bear might be passed out sleeping it off. Bet you'll get another visit tonight or tomorrow.

I was reading that people sometimes call fish and game because they have found a dead bear in their yard in the Tahoe area. In reality the bear has just ate too much in prep for hibernation and is passed out or taking a nap.

I thought that sounded pretty funny, have not seen that yet. Bears are hitting our neighborhood this week every night, lots of unprotected trash cans getting emptied. Our trash has two ratchet straps holding the lid in place, but he's chewed a 3 inch hole where lid meets bottom.

Where I grew up we had a lot of black walnut trees. When the nuts fell in the fall, the green husks would rot and ferment. The squirrels would get all wacked out eating them. It was always fun to watch those crazy, inebriated rodents going nuts.

They're like big puppy dogs. Show them some kindness ...

Actually, the bear has been quite helpful. It dug my bone meal (that I couldn't find) out of a big pile of tools, and left it sitting there.

Now I just have to remember, the bear can run faster than me.

Any cutesy stuff with the camera when the bear's around - might be as dangerous as trying to photograph lightning.

Three surveyors land via helicopter in a remote location in bear country to do a job. They note the bear scat all around, a lot of it fairly recent.

One of the guys is a new hire, never worked in the bush before, but thinks he knows enough.

The other two old-timers, as soon as they hit the ground, start replacing their work boots with sneakers.

The newbie says, "What are you guys doing?"

One of the two old timers replies, "Well, you've seen the bear shit around here, right?"

The newbie replies, "Yeah, but the adult, physically-adept grizzly can run up to 35 mph. You're not going to outrun -that-!!"

The more vocal old-timer says, "We don't need to out run the bear. We just need to outrun -you-!":biggrin:
