One of my neighbors bought me a real nice photo realistic camo tarp from the sportsman's guide, because he was justifiably tired of looking at the...
Thanks Midwinter! I love your idea, so much that I've been doing exactly that with the few brown tarps I have! It actually works awesome,...
I've found the best officials are reluctant to even be there. It's been the ones who really want to be there that seem to cause the most trouble.
Here, here! They were debating requiring permits for cutting any trees larger than 6" in diameter! I was horrified. But it got my azz in...
I live in the burbs and probably have 20-30 cords of wood stacked around the place. I really want to avoid coming up at the township meetings and...
Yes! I have tons of black walnuts. I'll mash some up husks up next season and see what happens.
I have yards and yards of white, heavy duty tarp. Came from damaged shelters. I would love to cover my stacks with the material, but want to...
I use 5 classes of tools: 1. X25 and 27 for most stuff; 2. Maul/isocore for bigger and narlier stuff; 3. 8 lb sledge and wedges (set of 3...

The one facing the camera sure looks happy.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of skunk. I've wondered about polecat, but I think I'd avoid that too, if someone offered me some.
Is there some way I can get the wood stove to cool the house in the summer like the old propane powered refrigerators? Then, I could really...
90%, with gas boiler thermostat set to 60° for the cat, when we are not here, or I fall asleep out of the correct cycle and decide to stay in bed...
Rather than an outhouse, why not treat yourself to a composting toilet. We have an outhouse currently (only one in the neighborhood), & had to...
Love that idea. I have some peanuts that sat around too long for us, I'll chop em in the blender and put em out tomorrow.
I like watching the birds even more than hoarding. Much less work and more aligned to the easy livin' plan. I should be splitting, hauling,...
Tall and long. With the occasional collapse. My prized 17 footer on 1" pipe fell over last night! It was almost 6' tall, single row. Must be...
