Things we hoard??

I go at first light and mine involves massive amounts of coffee.

That is a great tradition there. I watch the videos every year, and had a few buddies go out to Lake Winnebego to experience it. The objects used as decoys are interesting. I heard of one guy using a bowling pin, another a bud light sign. As it turns out, sturgeon, and pike for that matter are attracted to anything suspended in the water column, especially if it is white. The Indians used to use a deer scapula for pike, muskie and sturgeon.

 

What are they doing drinking Busch Light in Wisconsin. Isn't that Milwaukees Best country?

 

Early 90s I drank a lot of Miller genuine draft with a friend from Chetek Wisconsin. Claimed that’s the only thing the stores stocked.

 

That was my drink of choice many years ago.

 

Mine too!

 

Anyone hoard beer?

I have a buddy who is a retired accountant. He sets his beer budget, drives to Superior WI in the fall before deer season, and loads his truck with enough to fill a closet with cases of either Mountain Crest of Leinenkugel to get him through winter. Once the winter sets in, he doesn’t leave the house much. I told him if I had to drink all that it would make for a long winter. He said it works for him so I can’t argue with that!

 

Back in the 70's, I would horad beer every night! As much as I could!

 

I try to every week when I go to the grocery store. Doesn’t seem to last until next weekend’s trip.

 

Houndogs!

 

Because it's delicious! And it comes in wonderful boxes of 30!

 

years ago that’s what I got, except I’d bring home a 29 pack

 

Musta had a short drive!

 

While I don’t have a fire place and have tools that work great for my stove I have recently acquired theses two fireplace sets. They were made by my grandfather after the war as wedding gifts for family members. I have been told there are 3 more floating around that I will likely never see. They were offered to me and I figured I had to preserve them. My bro in-law recently brought gramps 4 foot cone mandrel to the scrap yard because he didn’t know what it was.

 

Lately, I have been hoarding snow. It is something that I didn't intend to hoard, it just started happening.

 

You guys are hoarders in training at best !!

 

Firewood
Guns
Ammo
Reloading components
Bourbon

 

Body fat. I keep saying I'm getting rid of most of it every year but every December 31st there's more.

 

My problem is that the less I do the more I eat so this time of year it's easy to pack it on.

 

This thread kind of died off (as most do eventually) and it seemed to be a newer version of the 'collector' thread (versus 'hoarding'). (1) collectors and collections | Firewood Hoarders Club

Back in the day I used to 'hoard' Jeeps and Harleys and would spend countless hours turning wrenches. I would often buy a vehicle just to do some custom work and flip it (as a side gig from playing with bombs). Besides the vehicles I used to have a substantial hoard of Jeep and Harley parts, manuals, special tools, etc. Those days are long gone and now instead of staying up until three in the morning working in the garage, I enjoy sitting by the fire with a bit of gin and reading a good book from my 'hoard' (mostly military history...go figure). And my automotive tools and equipment have been replaced (somewhat) by my hoard of firewood processing gear. Sad (not really) that I now am more concerned about the horsepower in my chainsaws, tractor, and log-splitter than my Harley.
