Narcotics can cause you a lot of harm. Avoid them at all costs if you can. That being said, sometimes they are the only things that work.

But for us most of the time, even for toothaches, two extra strength Tylenol and one Ibuprofen works just as well. A dentist that handled all our jail work wouldn’t give narcotics to inmates except under VERY limited circumstances. Said the Tylenol and ibuprofen worked just as well as the normal hydros.

I don’t like how I feel when I take em.

Glad your surgery went well Mike.

Good morning Yard. One last run to town today before we tuck in for the next few days. It's going to get COLD tomorrow night through Tuesday; they keep lowering the forecasted low temps.

Morning guys!

Good morning, Yard.

Afternoon Yard!

Gun Dog I'm glad your surgery went well. Heal well.

Otherwise, it's still snowing here. Nothing too bad but it's adding up. We definitely need it here. Our biggest resvoir was down to 11% and none of the others were above 17% the week before Christmas. A heavy snow pack is the only thing that's going to help next summer.

MB, how is C.J. Strike reservoir doing? Did a lot of fishing there at the Military marina.

Strike reservoir is a long way from here. But it looks like they drew it down last month for some repairs and were filling it back up.

The water is so bad this fall that the Snake River actually froze completely over near us. It kind of surprised me because it's not that cold and I thought there was too much water flow to freeze over.

Thanks! Healing is going well so far. Just my tail bone is really sore.

Yeah MB, I thought you were somewhat over 100 miles Southeast of there.

It's about a 3.5 hour trip from here. A bit over 200 miles from my place.
