"Caffeinated Elixir" I love it. The Great Outdoors

I hope everyone has a very joyous season. Roy The Great Outdoors

Here it is midnight. First night off in 6 days and I can't sleep [emoji42]. Spork? Ha! Hardly used it. On the last camping trip I was stirring in sugar in the tar stuff I call coffee, and I noticed the spork in the bottom of my camp tote. I forgot I had it. I left it there and continued using a...

Yep another project I'm pushing off to the way side. I've got to quit doing that. Hey Joe,maybe you can answer a question for me? How hard is it on a vehicle, or deep cycle battery, to run an inverter to, let's say for example, to run a small 110volt house hold coffee maker? I've never taken...

I bought a small power pack that I take when I go camping. It'll keep my cell phone going for several days. It days it'll jump a vehicle off, eh don't know. It's light and packs easily in all my other stuff, but I don't back pack camp. All my camping is either boat or vehicle. The Great Outdoors

That is snazzy. Cool idea Joe. I think I need to attach some wheels to my tote, yes that is a good idea wheels. The Great Outdoors

Thank you, steal? What. Maybe borrow some one else's idea. I'll come up with something. The Great Outdoors

Uh what a week. Noticed the car tires were looking a little thin, so 4 new tires and a 4 wheel alignment. That was Friday. Saturday was relaxing at the book stores, and then going to an outdoor store and getting sticker shock. Got up Sunday [emoji560] morning thinking it's going to be another...

Yep I've also got a Red Mad chewing tobacco tin. I'm planning on trying it out this weekend (The Great Outdoors)

I like Adam Shoalts. I got his book Beyond The Trees and haven't read much of it. I slack off for a month or maybe year or two. I don't read many books. I made a note of that one you just mentioned ND. Roy (The Great Outdoors)

Thanks for reply ND. I think I need experiment with them. (The Great Outdoors)

Does anyone actually use Twig Stoves? I've considered making one out of a coffee can, but they don't pack very easily. Maybe I can wear it on my head like Johnny Appleseed wore a pan on his. (The Great Outdoors)

It could be a real nasty situation if a person wacked themselves with a hatchet or ax. I made a leather cover for the blade of my hatchet cause I use the hammer side to drive tent stakes. I'd rather wonk my head then slash it open. (The Great Outdoors)

Still picking away at my backrests I've got some stitching on the straps to do. (The Great Outdoors)

Let's see [emoji848]. You don't need 2 hatchets or fly swatters. The chips will be good to roll the battered fish fillets in. The rubber snake can be a load of fun when you shove it in your buddies sleeping bag. Of course down here in the south, where some people take snakes very serious, you...

We have an REI store about 60 miles from here in Knoxville. I don't go there very often. They do have very good stuff, and they do stand behind their products. I have an insulating pad, it is the Bass Pro Shop brand. I bought it 6 years ago, I think. The Thermorest pillow is going to be...

I like that. Have you got a kitchen sink with dishwasher? Ha. it is convenient to have everything you need for kitchen stuff contained in one particular space. Everything has place and it's easier to remember and maintain. I'm honored to be of some inspiration. Roy (The Great Outdoors)

Oh does anyone know what that concrete trough was used for? It was leaning over on the drain pipe. It was about a foot deep and 36 inches long. Solid concrete. (The Great Outdoors)

We had a great week end. We went bicycle riding Saturday. there was an old mill dam here many years ago. The water level was very high, abnormally high especially as dry as it has been. the ducks were sure enjoying it. And here is what was causing the higher water level.We found bunches of...

I've been watching canoe and camping videos, oh and Cappy and Pegody videos to, usually when I'm sitting eating my lunch at work. I guess like an alcoholic watches alcohol commercials. Roy (The Great Outdoors)
