Motor is in the box under the feeder. I went out there and found one bad solar panel, potentially two bad solar panels, definitely one dead battery... Too much to mess with at once so I'll have to load up on spare parts and go down one day and just make the focus of the day to get it all back operating properly. Motivation is low at the end of the season anyway.

Boy that would be sweet. Got an airstrip on the hunting property but no vehicle down there anymore
Well we only ended up getting a couple of hogs this past week. The three days we hunted at the end of the week, nothing came out. The three days we were building, we saw coyotes and deer 
Joey's massive hog he headshot in like two seconds while it was crossing a road. Really impressive shot in the few seconds of time he had to take it. Joey cut off the head so he can take it to get mounted. This guy is one of the biggest/if not the biggest that's been killed on this ranch. The damn scale broke trying to weigh him so we don't know how much he weighs.
Jason's slightly smaller hog.

We got a 8'Wx8'H'x8D blind build with a 4' deck on it. Had a blast doing it and the large tractor that @thekidcatcher owns is a game changer with how easy it made installing the walls. We were able to build them on the ground, load em on a trailer and then take them over to build them in place.
This was the only way we could get the couch in since the door is a small size.
Our staircase we rebuilt a couple of times to make it much stronger.
In the summer when it's hot, you can lay outside the blind on the porch and shoot either laying down or sitting Indian style using the bottom handrail to rest your rifle.
Fancy interior shooting shelves with a routed edge. @thekidcatcher is going to sand them down next weekend

What stops the mice and other rodents from taking up residence in the couch?
Especially the black one...they will have plenty of protein to consume...

That's Mr Asshole to you
The constant application of a more dominant male's musk will keep them away.
This new blind should be sealed well enough that we don't have to worry about bug or animals getting in

If you can hear them your pit isn't deep enough.
His ranch is so desolate, I don't think we have to worry about that
