IA Born Report post Posted July 29, 2021 Interview went stellar this morning and, while I refuse to get my hopes too high, I thought I nailed it! In other good news I'm not sure how I forgot, I've been in touch with a guy my dad served with in Vietnam and he's invited me to come turkey hunt his ranch in central Texas! My wife has given me the blessings to go for it! He's had one 5-bearded tom taken from his property in the past and only has one other lease hunter there. I think he's not allowing the other hunter there while we're hunting. A buddy and I will be in central Texas, staying at his place, chasing Rios and he's in a 4-bird limit county! The blessings of the brotherhood only formed through combat! Early April won't get here soon enough! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had my home, business and storage burglarized in the same day and cops refused to respond. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheriff's department was a joke on a good day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigbuckfever Report post Posted July 30, 2021 I invested some money in Tierra Grande about 10 years ago. Didn't turn out very well. But, I get to chase whitetails in November, so all is well now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had my home, business and storage burglarized in the same day and cops refused to respond. I asked specifically about working remote and was told "remote within region" was approved. That is a good thing for me, because I won't move to ABQ for the reasons you mention. Every time I turned on "Cops", they were in the ABQ! I also pointed out that we have Regional Office employees in Wisconsin, Washington, here in Flagstaff, Atlanta and South Africa. I can definitely do this job from right here and, hopefully, we can cross paths in person, Tim! 3 hours ago, ctafoya said: Yep.

I have family in Belen that has lived there for years! I just found out recently that Belen was incorporated and its now "Rio Communities". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love the climate and the food! Just not the crime. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
