RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
Its fine to have one,
Its fine to be proud of it,
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
Started a new hobby grinding meats. Fun and challenging.
Vodin, following the other thread has got me thinking along those lines. I like sausages, but hate all the crap thats added in. Sounds like a great way to control what is used.
We picked up a bushel of sweet taters, 2 bushels of winesap apples to make apple butter, dehydrate, and can. Also picked the rest of our peppers both sweet and hot and bought 2 lbs of cayennes to dehydrate and grind into powder. Got some pumpkins and onion to.
Picked up a dutch oven, 4qt. And boxes of nitrile gloves, and n100 masks.
bacpacker, thank you for that compliment. My wife and I are doing more and more self sustaining projects. Most of them are related to food and I am happy to share them if there is an interest
Not to speak for others, but I think it's safe to say feel free to share any projects you want. IMO, whether pass or fail. Plenty of lessons to learn from both.
Garden got beat up pretty bad here last night, they said 50 mph winds, more like 80+. 7 broken fence posts snapped at the ground, but we did better than most next door neighbor lost the whole fence at the ground in a single section, so lots of cleanup here today. The wind picked up potted plants and set them down at the bottom of a 4 foot retaining wall which was interesting.
Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
Picked up a Sawyer water filter that was on sale at Walmart ($18.00) to go in BOB and now I have two, one for each bag. That little filter is awesome and will filter lots of water before having to be replaced. Also, ordered fresh food bars and MREs for BOB. Using up older stuff in freezer and canned food stock to make room for new.
Don't wrestle with pigs; you'll get all muddy and the pigs will love it!
Drying the apples we just harvested. Time to start rehabbing the garden. Everything is going to be raised to keep out the gophers. We will be planting a bunch of asparagus this year.
Completed ammo inventory.
I have a bunch of med supplies that I finely got off my butt and separated into to four large portable boxes. Two will go to the cabin and two will stay here.
So.....in an effort to keep my vehicle running, I took it over to my uncle's place to change the timing belt. I'm not sure how, but somehow he caught the car on fire. Seriously.
The damage isn't too bad, I don't think, but we now have to completely rip the engine out and see the extent.
That's going to be my project for the next week or so.
