Over the last couple weeks, I have my camp in the woods set up and ready.

Thanks for the heads up Dragon. There is a small machine shop bout 7 miles from here that I use for various projects. Guess I need to pay them a call. Actually I have another piece I need to get welded for a mowing machine I've been procratinating on getting done. Kill two birds with one stone.
I went to Tractor Supply tonight and got a solar fence charger for 30% off. Got some of the fence post I need, along with wire, insulators, & hardware for my fence in the chicken lot. Also got fencing to put around the bottom of the coop and a couple of 30 Gallon metal garbage cans w/ good lids to store feed in the coop with. They'll keep out the chickens and mice.
here is a heads up for ya on the chicken feed... watch for an old chest freezer, size according to your needs doesnt need to work but if it cools so much the better for hot weather to keep the bugs from hatching in the feed (eggs are already in it as is,) being flat sided they fit in the corner, seal tight against rodents and are watertight.
Well I had a visit from a good friend today. He twisted my arm and made me buy a brand new Beretta Neos in .22. Sweet pistol with a 6" barrel and holster.
Thanks Izzy! It is sweet.
Glad I can be of assistance. Hope you enjoy.
Had a great time, BTW. Thanks for letting me visit. I even learned a few things. Chicken coop looks great.

All us Tennessee guys need to get a challenge coin going, and form our own little MAG.

Earlier this week I bought 40#'s B/S Chicken Breast on sale. Got it all prepped and ready for the Canner but I'm not ready yet so single guy next door with an empty freezer is holding it for me until I'm ready because our freezers are full. Also got Cukes, Summer Squash, Pumpkin, Winter Squash and Collard seedlings set in the garden. Up planted a few other seedlings that needed bigger pots and sowed Pole Beans and Peas.
JustAPrepper you must have a long growing season. Do you grow much thru the summer? Sounds like you have a good start on a nice variety. Full freezers are great. I just found out yesterday I'm in line for a half beef later this fall. That should top mine off.
BTW Welcome to the forum.
Thanks for the welcome BP!
We're in Florida so some there's a few things we can grow year round but we gutted the garden this summer due to Powdery Mildew and Mealy Bugs which have been devastating the state right now. Also so we could make some adjustments to our beds and heavily amend our soil. Hopefully it will all pay off.
Awesome on your half beef! Full freezers are GREAT...<until a hurricane comes through>
