Ohio was worried about the rodent population some years back. They brought in coyote to lower the rodent population. Now, we have a bounty on coyote.
We had a rat problem along the Scioto River through downtown Columbus. They brought in Peregrine falcons (which eat mostly birds). The rats are...
My father-in-law lived on the treasure coast (Vero Beach) for about twelve years, until he passed away. He was a great musician and a nice guy with occasional cranky moods. We always got along well.
Taylor guitars are similar in todays makers. THey use shims to reset proper relief angles and action on their guitars. OP, Hofner was a department store brand, for the most part, until Paul McCartney broke his bass guitar and needed one for the night's gig in Hamberg, Germany. He walked around...
Nikon released a new film camera body a few years back. It was about 5K, so, you'd have to be serious about your investment. I have a Rolleiflex (1966) TLR (120 roll film). I seldom shoot film these days.
I'll take that as a compliment, thank you. Heron are simply amazing. I watched one eat a bullfrog, a small bass, and three young muskrats in one morning. I even photographed it eating the muskrat. They are incredibly intelligent birds.

I've had Fender Mustang, another Tele, Epiphone...

For those curious about my photographic gear. I shoot wildlife with Nikon D7500 and mostly long lenses. For landscapes I shoot the Pentax K-1 Mark II and it is 36 mp full-frame sensor.
I don't see any active groups in the Columbus area these days. I tried to get one together years ago, but, I became too busy with work and the whole idea simply faded. Is anyone interested in a club in Franklin County area?
I just received my new Fisher F-Pulse pinpointer this morning and took it out the back door to see if it will play nice with my Garrett AT-Pro. Yes, it does without need for adjustment. I just swung the coil on the AT, got a signal, dug a plug, turned on the F-Pulse, found a penny. Snow is in...
