Is the core of that door wood or composite? For composite, I’d probably just poke some JB weld in there with a toothpick, then put the screws back in. If wood, I’d do a more thorough job of removing the trim piece and checking for rotten wood. I’d oversize drill the holes and epoxy in a dowel. Drill the dowel for screw pilot holes, paint/seal everything and then reinstall trim and screws.

Buddy has a place outside of Nacogdoches they’ve been hunting for years and since retiring earlier this summer, I’ve went a few times to help out with trail clear, mowing and feeder work. I went last weekend to do a little squirrel hunting and hang out a bit. Old school camp back in the woods Strips and pepper redfish on the half shell for Friday nights supper Got a couple of squirrels with dad’s 22/410 Savage Saturday. My buddy killed 4 so we have enough for squirrel dumplings next trip. Catfish, fries and hushpupies for Saturday nights supper We only killed two squirrels Sunday morning.

I just bought on of these on sale at Avademy and didn’t research before hand. I thought it was Bluetooth connected for setup too. Nope gotta be cell connected. I’ll use it this season then buy a $35 manual controller for next year. I need to buy another and won’t get the connected version next go around. I paid $150 and it has the solar panel already so I’m OK with it for now.

Was at my buddies place over the weekend near Nacodoches. I put out a feeder to hunt during gun season. I set it for 7:30 and 4:30 so you will be in stand when feeder goes off. If too early the hogs will get there first and eat all the corn

Oh man that’s rough. I wonder if he had any other immune issues. Seems like I had always heard that the guys that got it usually had something else going on too that they might not yet have know about.

Nice! We spent part of this week at Galveston State Parkin the RV. We took the kayaks and I did a paddle back into the reclaimed marsh solo on Wed and with the wife on Thursday. I found one tailing red on Wed and was able to catch it only to tape out at 28.5-29”. On Thursday I got one keeper and two short reds and an dink trout. We enjoyed the paddle but spent the rest of the day slumped in a chair on the beach. Probably should have tried the surf a bit as it had 4’ visibility but was very happy with the reds. Chasing them in shallow water is probably my favorite inshore fishing.

Ended up just buying a complete new helm pump from West Marine on sale. Got it put in, purged the system and it ran great. Probably should have done it two years ago.

Just back from a week on the Frio at Garner State Park. We had site 45 in the big oaks right by the Pavillion, one of the best in the park IMO. Wheeled the kayaks across the road and parking lot and entered the river right below the pavilion. Very light crowds on Thursday Friday and Monday with the kids back in school. We packed a cooler with drinks and a lunch almost every day and would find an open picnic table down in the day area. Wife would read or paddle/float around the river and I chased bass and cichclids with the flyrod. I think we are scheduled to do a group trip with family during the summer but we’ll definitely be back next September for a relaxing chill trip.

Quoting my post from April 2024 on killing mesquite. I spend some time Sunday and Monday removing dead mesquite and honey locust that I had sprayed in June 2024. After a year, they are usually rotten enough to push over with my boot, breaking off at ground level. Trees with 2”+ trunks needed sawing at ground level. Dead, 15 months after spraying Made about a hundred trips to the brush pile. Need a small trailer for the utv Either missed this one or the poison didn’t take. I didn’t put a marking flag on it so probably missed. A sprayed and not killed tree will have about 20% of the leaves by this time of the year. Usually takes a 3 year, annual treatment on a pasture to kill them all. Looking for a cattle cube snack

We’re finishing up a Labor Day trip to the lake with the boat and RV tomorrow so I’ll figured give a 5 year update on owning our trailer. This trip is number 44 with 134 nights slept and having towed a little over 11000 miles. Almost half of our trips were to the same state park/lake that is only about 90 minutes away which makes it an easy weekend trip. Overall we still love having the trailer and it has become a focal point of family get together wherever we go. We have had good luck not having any major system issues on the road or after pulling it out of storage. The worst repair has been an electric brake failure and a tire slipping a belt and I caught both of them before anything go to far out of hand. We retired in June so some bigger trips are on the horizon. We have 10 days in the Black Hills/Custer State park reserved for next year and are waiting to reserve a spot in the Davis mountains next spring. We have a Frio River trip and a week at the beach to close out the summer this year before we start taking long trips to the ranch this fall and winter. Thanks again to those early Covid posts in this thread that was instrumental in pushing me towards looking at RVs and ultimately buying one. It been a great ride.

Even better, they run off somewhere else to die so you don’t have to dispose of carcasses under your feeder.

I bought a pair a few years ago off Amazon and they exceeded my expectation. The ones I bought had multiple heat levels and seems like they lasted a few hours on a med level while duck hunting.
