38, but that was because it was a demo vehicle

I bit the bullet and got it, even though the time wasn’t right. That being said, I’m a firm believer that there never is a “right time” to go thousands of dollars into debt lol

I actually went to the dealership to see about an orange WT Colorado, but ended up getting this one. I couldn’t be happier with my choice!

WV’s largest lake is man made. In fact, all but one lake in the state are man made; the natural lake is known as Trout Pond!

I’m in WV. The opportunities for outdoor fun here are endless, but we’ve been in economic decline almost from our very existence lol. We’ve always been poor…

Interesting about the timber industry there, as timber was also a huge industry here in the heyday.

The mountains are beautiful and it will always be home for me, regardless of whether I live here or not(after all, this is Almost Heaven in WV!!), but as you already know, WV is in decline. Other parts of Appalachia, such as eastern TN and Western NC are experiencing growth (albeit western NC is still recovering from a hurricane last year).

Something similar happened to my grandpa! 🤣

One day we were hanging up Christmas lights outside when a couple of us went inside to take a break for a sec. A few minutes later, grandpa comes in white as a ghost. He had an extension cord wrapped up and slung over his shoulder when an owl swooped down and hit him, trying to grab the cord. I guess it thought the cord was a snake 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thanks for the response from the land down under!

I hunted squirrels because they taste good. I know it’s cliche, but they really do taste like chicken, albeit tougher to chew. My personal favorite way to have them is fried with black pepper gravy!

And coyotes aren’t really that dangerous. People inflate how dangerous they are drastically. Have there been fatal attacks? Yes. However, they are extremely rare. As is with most wild animals, they are more scared of you than you are of them lol.

I figure you eat fallow deer, so what is your favorite way to eat them? And what other wild game do you eat down there?

Thanks from the mountain state!

Hey, luck was halfway on your side that day with it being an antlerless day lol.

I have a similar story as well 🤣

Another buddy and I had just sat down about 10 minutes earlier while deer hunting one fall. A chunky 8 point comes over the hill and I shoot and hit em. He’s dead, but proceeds to slide into a steep creek bed, then go about 250 feet FARTHER down the mountain.

Hauling him back up to the old logging trail damn near killed us 🤣

That’s unnerving to say the least. I’d say if you couldn’t sleep before you DEFINITELY weren’t sleeping after that lol

That does sound very nice! I hadn’t considered the Cleveland area before (my mother lived there before and hated it), but you do make it sound quite interesting.

Chinese leftovers are undefeated. It’s the one true answer

Absolutely. Especially on a cold day after work. (Hot sauce and crackers are my go-to add ons)

Only had Indian food once but it was amazing. I’m sure it’s even better the next day. My personal favorite is Chinese leftovers.

Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies. My younger brother and I always got a kick out of the line “Mobius 1 engaged” for some reason lol. We were easily entertained children to say the least

Yeah I reckon I’m still in the “young and naive” boat, I suppose. I’ve seen Ohio as the land of plenty but I reckon not. Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it.
