    I got a squirrel education once ~ I think I was thirteen... had a "pet" squirrel in the back yard.  He'd eat outta my hand.  But I learned REAL quick that he most assuredly did NOT care to be picked up.  

     

    Dawg, but he was quick!  And those looong teeth did a number on a few fingers before I managed to hurl the li'l booger.  Worst was the chomps right into the joints.  Even with the launch, he fared better than me; continued begging, but I made sure to toss him his "treats" after that.  :huh:

    My favorite episode - from 1971, To Rope a Grizzly  ^_^

     

    Sunday, February 1971, those of us in the Kappa Phi Delta house who didn't have Valentine's Day dates (most of us!) were perched on the edges of our seats, beers clutched in hand but forgotten, watching in astonishment...  :rolleyes:

    One of the things I really miss about PRC . Where I lived up in Susanville opening day of dove season was a big deal, everyone went 

     

    Yup... love it!  A "rite of passage" here in the Central Valley, which we continue to celebrate every September 01.  SO many memories... and stories!  ^_^

     

    Always fun going into town for breakfast after that opening day morning shoot and seeing the  restaurants full of happy folk in camouflage.  :)

    Second year of college I was taking a camping class in the Recreation Department - a requirement for Rec majors and minors (the latter being yours truly).  One of the class assignments was a group backpacking trip into Point Reyes.  Easy for those of outdoors types; a mite challenging for the city slickers.

     

    So the group eventually rendezvoused at the camping area.  There were basically three types of participants:  those of us who were prepared based on experience; those who prepared by reading the class syllabus; and two singularly unique "gentlemen" who were the last to arrive due to their footwear and burden.

     

    The last two, who were um... of "African American" descent... showed up looking like extras from the Super Fly movie of the era.  Double-knit bell bottom slacks; shirts with huuuge, pointed lapels, white belts, wide brimmed fedoras, alligator platform shoes... 

     

    And the only "provisions" they brought along was literally a well-stocked portable bar.

     

    I'm here to tell ya, folks, those gentlemen wanted for nothing that weekend!  Food... warm clothes... bedding... all readily available for barter.  :lol:
