Well, all my stuff, all my hunting ammo and most of my clothing is in storage. We sold the house in Corpus in late September and have YET to close on our new home in the woods. We'd expected to at least be moving, but latest is that we close next Tuesday. No hunting knives, have a set of deeks and a call and some cheap stocking foot waders if I wanna go duck hunting, which I might later in the week. I've got all my firearms locked in our 18 ft travel trailer and my van and we're living in the trailer until we can move, going stir crazy. We're in a RV park in Port O'Connor 12 miles from my land. Wife's cousin has killed a buck in Pennsylvania that scored 220. His son saw 4 bucks this morning, didn't take one, on his dad's place in Seguin. I'm sitting here whining to the wife that all these people are hunting and I'm stuck with nothing to hunt with, all in storage.
We had a little 2" Puma folder in the trailer, so I put an edge on it. Got it to shaving arm hair. So, there's me a field dressing blade if I need it. We have all the kitchen knives in our trailer, quality stuff, and I do have my 120 quart ice chest. My freezer is at a friends house 30 miles away with the remains of the sausage from last year. I told him to help his self, so there might not be much left, LOL. I have THREE rifles for which I have suitable ammo with me, my two SKSs, and my little Rossi 92 lever carbine in .357 magnum. The 7.62x39 ammo, old handloads, for the SKSs is packed back in the van, but the .357 was easier to get at, so I dug out a box of 165 grain SWCs and I'll do with that. My feeder is only 60 yards from my stand. I could get a shot as far as 150 yards from that stand, but most I've ever had from it is 90 yards. The gun is good for 100.
So, screw it, I'm goin' huntin' in the morning!
