Title:
Hillsboro Grain Bin Failure 11-19-07

Description:
This is what happens to your house when you live beside an elevator and a 500,000 bushel grain bin bursts under pressure. The family was inside and thanks to their neighbors and rescue crews they were dug out. My brother was standing in his yard when it went. It made a huge popping sound and then he saw it sweep the house from its foundation. Hillsboro Iowa 2007.

There was so many cedar trees I didn't realize he was the buck I was letting grow. This hunt means more to me than any of my other, because it was the last for my father. He passed away last fall in Sept. Rest in peace and thanks for the memories.
A Bobcat Within 10 Feet
I took my 10 yr. old daughter doe hunting in our double bull blind. It was rather windy, so I told her we may not see any deer come into the corn field to feed. We were sitting there enjoying the sound of several turkeys in the timber behind us, when they became very silent. It wasn't long before we realized why.
