School me on Water tanks and water storage?
That’s probably right on the faucet. Your setup is pretty bad ass. Wish more could do that, we need some help on water usage.

School me on Water tanks and water storage?
Mine runs at 5.5G/min. I tested it a year or so ago because of a commercial pressure washer I had needed 5 to run. Don’t know if that’s common or not but assume so. We have a 4500 or 5000g cistern system at the family place in Bandera. It is nice water. I was living up there once when it didn’t appreciably rain for something like 300 days. I trucked water in a few times. Something like @troph has seems like normal life wouldn’t be interrupted.

Ive got one better. Within the last ~7 years, I passed on a cabin in Baffin for 35k. You know, the ones getting 100k just for the permits now... I will never forgive myself or the buddies I pitched it to.

Very important that things are trending the correct way thru October.

Friend of mine bought a 1/2 acre and pretty good sized Quonset hut right near the ramp there for something like $4000 about 15 years ago. Ramp was pretty shittacular last time I was there, and shallow all around it. The Tivoli DQ is the night life of the area.

I’d make sure you do your best to spray it down really, really well every time you are there.

Elderly Parent Life Alert?
Timely thread, dad had a bad fall yesterday while my mother was out. Trying to get to the pasture for some reason - he hasn’t been able to handle the cattle in over 5 years. Don’t know if he’s got the wherewithal to work the watch. Shits fucked yo.

It was a bitch heading in (slightly uphill but you couldn’t see/tell) if pulling a boat. Wasn’t too bad if you were just in a truck. You could feel yourself going downhill on your way out and it was considerably simpler. Was a really nice shortcut to landcut if you had a small boat. It was difficult for me in my skiff to leave from bird island (fuel and big bay asswhip)

Best Pocket Knife?
Same. You can get some really nice customs for a lot less than WH.

I used to launch there to go to a buddy’s cabin on the land cut. Out of all the times I ever went (including spring break several times) I don’t think I ever saw another soul there. The only time I ever remember people was they were putting in well pad or something back there and there was lots of dump truck in and out, with a dozer maintaining the road thru the dunes. Only “easy” time I ever had (was always towing my boat)

CWD - we good or nah?
I assume they would destroy it. Certain areas of the state it’s mandatory you take it by the check stations. I’m not sure how quickly they can turn it around, I’ve never had to deal with it. I had a few minutes and they offered, and I was interested. That’s only reason I did. Prions are nasty, nasty, nasty.

CWD - we good or nah?
Last year I had them do the free test while I was dropping off some deer at the processor. We aren’t in a CWD area but figured what the hell. My meat was ready for pickup about 2 weeks before I got the results back. I continued to eat last years sausage until it was clear because that would be too fucking on brand and ironic.

I’ve seen a few swifts in the last 6 months that weren’t crazy prices. Less that you paid for that Hornet I bet. Couple of them were really nice, I’ll DM you if they come around again. Haven’t seen any Bobs in…ever. I almost convinced myself to pick up a LNIB Kimber of O Bob awhile back, but restrained myself. My goal is to square away a P gun in the next 18 months or so, which is going to significantly slow down some of the rifles I’ve been hunting for awhile.

Friday’s started getting crowded about 15 years ago where I frequent. Thursdays are now like Fridays used to be. I wouldn’t even be concerned if I broke down on a Thursday, there’s enough folks to catch a tow. Wish this wind would lay down. I was looking back thru my notes a few years ago, and my first surf limit of the year from 1995-2008 was always between May 5 and June 1st. This year has not been very conducive to that.

no big deal. Just a bunch of pre64 and old Sakos, in the best caliber they ever chambered, and dozens of them. Buh.

The Gun Owner’s thread
It was a shitload of snake guns and a bunch of old Sako (among others)rifles iirc. He posted the pics here, with a quick follow up that they weren’t selling to individuals or had already sold the lot. I’m losing the name off the top of my head but that big store in San Antonio bought it all, iirc. I followed all their auctions on GB for awhile, looking for a few of the Sakos but never saw any of them come up.
