Jeff Marshall has two started dogs that will be ready to hunt this fall. One setter, one pointer. Jeff says they that both seem to be suited as walking dogs with the Setter covering a bit more ground than the pointer. Both have been shot over and like to hold point, but not completely broke. Call Jeff, 217 370-6176, for more information and pricing.
My friend Merrell Collins raised a few head of cattle this summer and is offering half or quarters for folks looking for some homegrown, no hormone, no antibiotics beef. The Black Angus were raised on grass pasture and supplemented with corn to complete their diet.
Merrell estimates that the quarter beef will dress out at around 150 lbs. and will be sold at market price plus processing costs. The cost should be around $550/quarter. Beef will be processed this fall and you can determine how you would like your half or quarter cut.
Please call Merrell, 618 292-3586, to place your order and put down a deposit. He has a limited number available of these quality, homegrown beef so please contact him soon.
This Saturday, April 24th, come and enjoy some shrooms and dads. I picked 70lb of crawfish and found a few morels to go along with some oyster, portabella and pheasant back mushrooms. Sandy Run Clubhouse at 5 pm or earlier if you want to try to find a few morels yourself.
I am selling my 2005 GMC pick up truck. It has a little over 251,000 miles. Engine runs well, just starting to burn a bit of oil, but hardly noticeable. Transmission has been worked on twice and still has an occasional hiccup in the torque converter going into overdrive. Tires are in good shape. Four wheel drive works.
Interior is in good shape. Drivers seat leather is in poor shape as well as passenger, but nothing some seat covers wouldn’t heal. SLT package has the a lot of nice extras for an older pickup, heated seats, dual climate control, see below.
It has some minor dings and scratches (rolling trampoline at El Rancho Neuvo), one decent dent on the rear bumper (QUGA tractor), passenger rear quarter panel has a dent/scrape (Kevin’s driveway tree). Only rust is on the two side rocker panels and the a patch on the upper bed lip by the cab.
More vehicle details below the pics. Come to Sandy Run to take it for a spin.
