For Micdahic....

Mic,
Step 1. Find yerself a nice stick as long as yer arm from palm to shoulder.

Step 2. Hold said stick vertical with arm extended.

Step 3. Look down arm toward tree on level ground and sight over thumb knuckle to breast-height on stump (or where you'll make your cut).

Step 4. Move forward or backward till top of stick aligns with top of tree. You have now created a 45 degree angle. Give or take a few more feet to compensate for slope, but this is where the top of the tree should end up once felled.

Step 5. Fire up the gas-powered timber sword and give that fiberous fucker hell!

Step 6. Buck up, haul away, and grab a cold one!

Since you probably haven't put it in yer ears yet....

It's all about the bass and drums. Best listened to with an open mind and a lot of volume. Crank it up to eleven.

These are a few of my favorite things.....

Blogger's block

Howdy y'all! Sorry about the lack of posts this past week, it's just..well...just...uuhhh..just that I haven't felt like putting much up on the blog. Not that any thing cool hasn't happened, or that I haven't had the time, I just haven't done it. Sorry. Anyhoo, been fishin' quite a bit at the lake across the road from the pad, caught a few nice cutthroat, brookies, and rainbows and suffered a bit of mild frostbite on my toes the first day in the float tube. Since then I've only been fishing out of my canoe which is no easy task no matter what you might see in pictures. Factors such as wind, casting direction, and just flat out getting the damn thing to sit still all play a part in the dance we know as trout fishing. The she-bandit has been gone for three weeks and I patiently await her arrival home this coming sunday. Don't get me wrong, a dude likes his time to himself, but she's become a pretty big part of my day to day and I'm not ashamed to admit I miss her. The end of march marks another move for the bandit back down to Mccall, ID to begin work on the ninth of april. At which point the bandit will no longer have internet access and will suspend posting until the fall. I still got a few more posts left in me, though! So, until then, here is a pic of the she bandit doin' her thing on a controlled burn outside of Meacham, OR. in the fall of '05.

Bohnstedts in the sky...

Cant explain exactly why this airplane has our name on it, but it does. Just googled up some images of our last name and aside from our SS relative, this is what came up. Looks to me like a DC-3.

An Epic.....

Here's one that definately deserves two old-growths up. It's one of those flicks that even though I've seen it probably twenty times, it never gets old. I will watch it for the twenty first time this evening with a chilly glass of pinot grigio. If you haven't seen it yet, where the hell have you been? Even the blogfather (liker of movies only he picks out!) will agree that this is definately in the top ten of "must see movies".

Lovin' it.....

WOW!

If you haven't seen this movie then where in the HELL have you been? As you can tell, since the she-bandit is in Florida for the burn academy the bandit has had ample time to catch up on movies. As of now until the end of the month, the bandit will be your personal movie reviewer. I will rate the movies not unlike that of Ebert and Roeper, except instead of thumbs I will use trees. That's right, trees. Two trees up, two trees down. One tree up, one tree down. As for tonight's movie presentation "Monster", I give it two old-growths up. For christ's sake, watch this movie, even if you didn't watch Borat.

A post for Eric Panebaker......

Here you are Eric, I couldn't find any skiing midgets so I figured midget wrestlers were just as good if not better!

Borat: The Movie

Tonight I watched tis flick. Let me tell ya, HILARIOUS!!! Get it. Now. Anyhoo, Amistad was killer. Any flick with ol' Matthew M. in it is uasually pretty good. A time to kill was my personal fav. Enough about Amistad, go rent Borat. Stop reading. Go now.

I may have fixed the problem..........

My fellow blogsters,
I have made a few adjustments to the comment section of this here blog. Hopefully I pushed all the right buttons to make it a snap for y'all to comment. Hi Ho Silver, away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Gonna watch this flick tonight

Fish camp champion 2007

That's right fellow bloggers, the bandit swept the 2007 fish camp with a whopper 10.7 pound rainbow trout. Let me tell ya, he was one big bastard! He hit a black rooster tail in crystal lake (located in the quincy wildlife area just east of wenatchee) right around noon on the first day of fish camp. So what does the champion recieve for his outstanding prowess as a trout hunter? Well, he gets one custom made trophy to take home, and onther trophy to keep until next year when it MUST be brought back to be competed for once more. Oh yeah, and the cash. Each participant must pay twenty bucks to compete for the trophy, and this year about twenty dudes went after the whopper. My buddy Gavin was the runner up with another rainbow weighing in at 6.10 pounds. Definately a year for quality over quantity as not many fish were caught. So the Eastside Walters take the trophy back to it's rightful home until next year when those damn westsiders can try again. Enjoy the pics!
