it will not take long for that shed to fill up, we’re all hoarders by nature.

The loft sections will definitely fill up (one is currently housing my son and nephew who thought they needed to "camp" in it last night). The rest I'm going to build a table in and set up a table saw for wood working etc. Think ill just build a lean to off one side to keep my mower under so I'm not taking up space inside with it.

I'm done driving around looking for posts. Just hit up another HD and Lowes....screw it. Using the old posts I have. Luckily TS had a T post driver, but their round posts were total splitsville garbage. My local hardware store had one post driver but the owner took it home 2 days ago for his garden and never brought it back to the store. Good guy - said he would bring it back tomorrow if I needed it still

Great weather this weekend so far. Got down into the 50's last night and not hot in the daytime either. Today's even better. Time to go work on my neck tan

I got a good tan last night from the camp fire rays

Typical end of the night pose

3 sides up...kinda. Still gotta run the cable on 2 sides and tension 2 sides. Only the back has cable and is under tension. Sprayed the cable and t posts with some flat black I had laying around from the Tacoma. Got a nice base coat tan. Going to need to start working barefoot cause my Jesus sandal tan lines look ghey

Add nature back into my yard and then it started coming on it's own. First wind turkey Ive ever seen in my yard in the 16 years Ive been here.

and I immediately chased him into the neighbors yard

That's funny. Should have put a pellet through its head and breasted it out.

and sad..... pellet guns treated like real guns in this crazy state so it would be a felony to discharge within 500 yards of a residence. Also why I could/would never post any of my vermin relocation stories or pics. One wrong word or pic and some redflag rat asshat could take away my 2a rights.

Crazy to live like this..... under the mans thumb worried about a neighbors call or camera as they cook meth in their house with the LEO's knowing all about it.

500 yards? I believe it’s only 150, but even at 150 that’s still a bit much for your property from what I remember. I was out practicing my varmint extermination skills earlier, my old .22 needs a good cleaning

You should really get the book of NJ gun laws so you stop questioning my knowledge and before you post incriminating evidence......... or at least remember the name and # "Even Nappen (732) 389-8888" and start saving your money cause he ain't cheap - heck if I were you I'd get his name and number tattooed onto your arm or the small of your back so when the mans fucking you he knows who you are represented by - then maybe he will give you some spit as lube

I did not question, I corrected it. It’d been along time since I took the test but it’s right here on the state webpage, my memory might be shit these days but certain numbers stick with me.

So nice to open the front door and let it rip if I feel the urge

 

[PSU Taco85]

Either way, just get some of the CCI .22 lr quiet ammo, and you’d be eating a turkey dinner. Myself, I’m after something less tasty

Get a bow. Super quite and fun to shoot.

my buddy had me shooting a few years ago, then I looked up what the cost would be to invest in a nice bow. I quickly learned if I went down that rabbit hole it would be bad for my wallet, I can only afford so many hobbies . I do have a cheap cross bow I keep around to mess with, but won’t reach the distance I need to pluck this varmint.

I've shot rabbits in the backyard with my little ones Cricket bolt action .22 using subsonic rounds. Its far quieter than my breakaway action Ruger .22 air rifle. Fuck that thing is loud!

I like those little bolt action ones, I use to have one like that when I was a kid and I ended up giving it to my good friend's kid. I don't mind the rabbits, in fact I like keeping them around the house. Cutting the grass last friday, I walked over to the corner of my yard and this little guy was hopping around, can't be more than a few weeks old. Luckily the nest was very close to the fence so I didn't harm them.

Been trying to catch this damn thing

But instead so far have caught two of these,

These SOBs are hard to trap, so I've resorted to feeding him hot lead

 

[Silverback]

Well if my wife didn't have a garden I do not mind them ( I really don't care but she complains) .. hell my dogs get most of them. But I have not shot one in many years. My dog got one about a week ago. I don't see many these days in the back yard. But with the new 2' above ground garden beds they should not be a problem.

 

[PSU Taco85]

yeah I'm looking to do a raised garden bed for next year, I'm hoping I keep the same opinion about the rabbits and they stay out from eating my vegetables haha
