[QUOTE="Rob Lancaster, post: 170235, member: 6154"] Go Tony go!! …………. I want to see the progress of your garden this year. My neighbor is growing sweet potatoes and Kalu and stuff like that. Trouble is, the former golf course field behind the houses here has completely returned to jungle status. Now the mountain boars come all the way down from the mountains behind the houses and raid peoples gardens. They dug up all my neighbors plants by the roots and ate everything... If they touch my pineapples, I'll bring in a guy I know, he has a nice compound bow. I saw him in action at my brothers house a couple of miles from here. He's closer to the mountains than us. Several years ago, he and his neighbors were having the same problem. The pigs would come down the mountains at the same time in the afternoon everyday. BIG mistake. One afternoon we were all sit'n and waiting for them to arrive. We could actually hear them coming.. Next thing you know, 1, 2, 3, 4 pigs walk right out into the open.. Nobody makes a sound and my friend stands up with the bow and takes aim. He shoots! He scores!! He hit it right behind the left front leg. At first I didn't think he hit it because they all just paused for a second. Then they all ran back the way they came. My hunter friend spotted a blood trail and followed it for about 20 yards before he found the target. He took it home and made some good kalua pork. Um!, Um!, Um!, Um!, Um!.... Oh and we never saw any of his friends again after that, LOL! Hey Randy, is that Meade 16" scope you have a Dobbsonian or a Schmitt Cassigrain? Also, when you say re-mirror job, are you referring to a mirror replacement or is there a way to restore mirrors and lens coatings?? About your 6" Cassigrain, you said the drive clutch is slipping.. Is the drive for just moving the scope? You know without turning mechanical knobs... When I saw the photo above of comet Lovejoy, I thought is was a photo like the one taken at the Geminid meteor shower party we were at in Dec. 2018... My friends had 3 nice digital cameras shooting 20 second exposures all night long. We got many killer shots. Like this photo of comet Wirtanen , circled in red and a nice Geminid meteor streaking in from the lower left.. Anyway I tried to send pictures again with no luck. I don't know what's going on this time so use your imaginations. Ha! [/QUOTE]
