    I wish that was the way it is for rural volunteer firefighters.

    The kind of men that carry a pocket knife.

    I'm never without a folder. My son caries a Case folder, and a fixed blade belt knife.

    Fancy Outdoor Shower From IBC Tote

    I love the TCMT heaters, I have an 18L for my house. The only thing I didn't like is that the vent is just off for most pipes ...it's like 4.2 inches. Nice build, now my wife wants an outdoor shower... :)

    Last nights adventures

    I can see the deer that have been hit around here, and usually about 1/2 the time I see the back cut open, and the back straps removed. That sucks

    Last nights adventures

    So, a Baptist church about 15 miles away had a Fur Fin and Feather wild game feed last night. These used to be popular as I was growing up, but they are few and far between now so my wife, son, and I went to it. It was the largest one they had ever had, and didn't have enough tables and...

    TBob's Budget Homestead

    Helped a guy move this past weekend, just loaded the heavy stuff up for him. He gave me some metal roofing and an old 3 section wood stove I'll try to restore in exchange. Good deal for both of us. I used some of the roofing on my old wood shed that didn't have a roof, to help keep it dry. I'll...

    Day 4 complete. Tied for top score on the quiz today. Ran some practice scored practicals, scored high enough to pass so I'm not worried about that on Thursday anymore. Final on Friday should be golden. Freakin fatigued though. 5 chapters a day, so many things to remember. I recommend this though.
