    Great pics. Nothing better than listening to the night time forest sitting in front of a fire.

    Doesn't get any better than that! Looks like you have a new appreciation of life and things we take for granted.
    Wish I could "like" this twice!

    You know he worked hard if he’s drooling like that! Hard for that to be beat though, you wonder when your kid will be helping you with your hoarding and the skills that come with that too. Best part about that is later on, they could be just as enabling and hungry as you are and then helping you in scouting and scrounging. :thumbs:

    That's cool! When I was 5 I had a little buck saw and would limb the trees when dad felled them. I was more excited to do that than Christmas morning!
