The LO road along to showed me the culvert they where plugging up. I hopped out of the truck and in less than 5 min had the set made. The LO responded "That's it?" and shook his head in disbelief as if I was supposed to perform some sort of voodoo dance right there in the middle of the road. Told him that'll have to do. Well, it worked! Last edited by 20scout; 05/12/20 11:37 PM. Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

And from what i was told no one had ever seen that many. 4 is more the normal number. Out of the ten 5 would not have been born alive. The forum Know It All according to Muskrat
