    The far right section is 14/15 wood (according to the labels at the top my wife made.)
    Glad it labeled, cause I've forgot which one is which.

    I'd say that meets the standards of one Bogey Dave. Very well done.

    Dave, you must be thinking strongly about moose season by now, eh? When does it start?

    Ya, it really has got me to thinking with the cooler air moving in. I sat in a deer blind last night in case the turkeys came after the food plot. Saw a few deer but not turkeys but man it felt great being out there and the weather being cool. It is cooler today. This morning I went back on the atv and had to wear gloves! Won't be long before we put the windshield back on.

    Then to top it off, a neighbor I helped out a couple days ago told me he is heading to Colorado next week for elk. This is getting the hunting blood stirred up.

    Dave, you need a different picture frame on that toilet. Cut one out of styrofoam. Much more comfy to sit on. Also a good idea to take a thermacell.

    Good idea for styrofoam,
    They use blue-board styrofoam in Fairbanks when it gets bellow freezing so you don't stick to the seat. LOL :) .

    We have a thermacell.
    Might hang it in there.

    Learned that thermacell burns the same chemical that's in the mosquito coils, just a little stronger active ingredient in it.
    Downside is the "no-see-ums" don't seem to be effected by it.

    Hopefully by serious moose hunting time, the bugs population will be a lot less.

    Burning birch bark in the fire seems to run the mosquitoes off too. :zip:
