A lot of places where I camp/park I have planted a lot of stuff thats edible.&nbsp; A bit of Guerrilla Gardening if you will.&nbsp; You never know when its going to come in handy or when your going to really need it.<br /><br />Every year as the season starts to wind down, I will hit Lowe's...

There is a lot to be said for what DazarGaiden posted.<br /><br />Been working the Grave Yard shift for most of the last 30 years and love it. &nbsp;Sleeping in the day can be a bit of a challenge due to the day light and the noise around you. &nbsp;Sometimes no matter how quiet it is around you...

Thanks I am definitely going to try this out!

Humm. &nbsp;That kinda neat. &nbsp;I have always just used the 7 gallon Coleman water containers that you can buy at Wally World (Walmart) for about 7-10 bucks with the water spigot on it. &nbsp;Its cheap, extremely compact, well shaped for easy storage, holds a couple of extra gallons and works...

I will echo the post by Pikachu711. &nbsp;Most Security Guards dont get paid enough to care and will only do what they "have" to do to stay out of hot water with the client or the boss. &nbsp;Be cool about it and most will return the courtesy. &nbsp;In fact they just might tell you where you can...

Are you kidding?&nbsp; Im a Big Ol' Fishing Pimp, and I just couldnt imagine a camping trip without wetting a hook in the nearest puddle of water!&nbsp; Its just an added plus when the water is clean enough I can eat the catch too!&nbsp; Not only does it stock the fridge it also is a lot of fun!

<br /><br />Funny you say that...I didnt know how to even sail a sailing dingy much less a 37 foot boat when I bought it, ha ha ha.&nbsp; I was just thinking beach front condo when I got it.&nbsp; Didnt take long for the folks frequenting the marina to learn me the ropes.

<br /><br />I can certianly relate to that.&nbsp; You know what they say...Happy Wife = Happy Life!&nbsp; Id have a pretty tough time letting go of 1400 plus myself.&nbsp; That being the case have you thought about building one?&nbsp;&nbsp; A pretty nice gun could be easily assembled from parts...

What do I carry...<br /><br />I carry a Colt Series 70 5" barrel 1911 on and off duty. &nbsp;On duty my "Wonder Woman" belt is a Bianchi Accu-Mold with all of the appropriate accessories except the magic lasso. &nbsp;Off duty, I use a SOB holster and keep a couple of Bill Wilson Combat 8...

Well your in good company...Im a prepper too! &nbsp;Not much of a doomsdayer but I like to be more self suffcient and a bit more prepared than the average person so I can weather hard times a little easier and none the less for wear and tear.<br /><br />Dont knock the boat idea. &nbsp;Except for...

I think diesels are best used in applications where you need high amount of torque and need it at lower RMP's. &nbsp;In a P/U truck (one thats actually used for work and not one driven around in to look cool) where your hauling or towing diesel is way more economical than a gas engine.<br /><br...

Retired military vet here living in a 22ft 5th wheel since 2006. &nbsp;My "life style" is calling for something 5-8 feet longer though and hopefully in a couple of years I can make that happen. &nbsp;While I was still active duty I spent 7 years as a live aboard on my 37ft sloop rigged Lancer...

You can google recipes on the internet as well and easily duplicate them most of the time. &nbsp;Most are really easy and straight forward. &nbsp;Most recipes are pretty flexible as well as you dont have to be brand specific. &nbsp;<br /><br />For stir fry sauce you can usually make you own...

Wally World sells a 200 watt space heater that doesnt use much power, doesnt get hot enough to cause a fire hazard but should be able to knock the chill off the interior of a JGC. &nbsp;It cost about 12.00 fun dollars and could be ran off a inverter plugged into your cigarette lighter or...

Honestly I would go with a 3 1/2-6 hp Briggs and Stratton lawnmower enjine in conjunction with a alternator (special type I can provide the link later) would be a lot better of an option and take up a lot less space. &nbsp;This set up could quickly charge a couple of 8D 12v Batteries on a...

Im with VGJ1977...you just gotta add a splash of sesame oil to the dish!!!<br /><br />Stir fry dishes are one of my favorites and probably one of the most flexible meals one can prepare. &nbsp;Its a one pan dish that you can make from just about any available produce and meat. &nbsp;Takes mere...

Im with Sparky on this one. &nbsp;I think an 8D battery is about as big as you want to go and humping one aint no joke! &nbsp;I have 4 that are easy to access on my 37ft boat and I <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">DO NOT</span></strong> look forward to replacing one of them...

Skooky stole some of my thunder! &nbsp;I have seen these used in the Philipenes. &nbsp;I personally store rice, sugar, salt, beans, dried herbs from the garden just to name a few things that I store in 20 ounce to 3L soda bottles. &nbsp;I have also discovered that a 550 round box of 22 Long...

Thats a really tough call to make. &nbsp;The 40 S&amp;W is more of a personal defense round specifically designed for use against 2 legged predators vs a large wild animal. &nbsp;A 500 lbs plus Black Bear is a trophy class animal for a Black Bear and not too many reach that size in most areas...

Both seem to be pretty rugged vehicles from what I have seen in military service. &nbsp;The step van would definitely have the advantage in no uncertian terms for stealth living for sure. &nbsp;Its going to be really tough to fly under the radar in a schoolie. &nbsp;The Bus however will come in...
