    Maybe a game camera looking back at the blind might help if someone does borrow it.......that and a locking tow hitch so its still  there when you get back.


    Still enjoying the trip of a lifetime and making the best of what I have.....

    It has a locking tow hitch on it now, but my buddy made a great point about an easy security solution.  Because the jack stands can raise the whole rig high enough to clear the ground, I can simply remove the wheels.
    Accuracy: because white space between bullet holes drives me insane.

    Glamorous camping is glamping.  Is this glunting?

    Careful, now.  One slip of the tongue and you’ll git yourself banned   :D

    It definitely is WAY more glam than I ever envisioned years back.  This may just be a sign of aging that I’m just fed up with spending ever single winter hunt freezing.

    Harvesting animals doesn't have to be miserable if ya don't want it to be.  Not in this day and age anyhow. If you want a stalking hunt, that's still an option too.

    Go to the Re-Store and look for a recliner...
    I didn't have a recliner but I had a swivel chair that leaned back like a recliner. That damn thing probably made me miss a few shots because it was so comfortable I can't tell you how many times I fell stone dead asleep in that thing. One afternoon I fell asleep probably around 3:30-4:00 PM and when i woke up it was pitch dark.
    Daddy, what's an enabler?
    Son that's somebody with nothing to do with his time but keep me in trouble with mom.

    Those "Blue Northers" can make trying to hunt downright miserable...strange thing though...one day you're wearing everything you own and the next you're vhunting in a t-shirt...
    Hey dude, that sounds like TEXAS!

    The dealer highly recommended going with a wheeled office chair.  He said that it lets you make minor adjustments easier and is super comfortable.

    I'll add more when I get back from my deployment.  Truthfully, this thing won't see any action until rifle season hits, so I have time to add amenities and decide on chairs, etc.  In the mean time, the floor mats are pulled up to avoid moisture buildup and the door is locked to send a message in case someone tries to size it up for a trespass hunt while I'm away.
    Can I come hunt with you?  I’ll bring the cognac and cigars 😁

    Get a high back one. Easier napping. 

    Most large school districts have surplus warehouses where they sell off old office equipment. That’s where I got my last couple chairs

    You can find chairs on sale at Office Max way under 100$
