Are they making more process today? I am specifically interested in knowing when the power comes back on in the area between Bartlett road and Thomas Road. I have an older brother on Rappahannock. https://outagemap.mlgw.org/OutageSummary.php Mlgw website isn’t much help they post a summary with numbers repaired and number still out. Their map is kind of useless. It was interesting navigating the intersections without traffic lights.

Baldwin shoots two on movie set, accidental misfire???
TennesseeCamper replied to TennesseeCamper's topic in General Chat
Another case where celebrity gets special treatment. And it’s not the first time for Baldwin. So much negligence. Baldwin should have been charged properly. Can’t stand him! The armorer may not be so lucky. -
Nashville Walgreens employee shoots shoplifter
TennesseeCamper replied to 10-Ring's topic in General Chat
Definitely Walgreens will be sued and the shooter may face jail and lawsuits. For sure the shooter won’t likely work for Walgreens again. Employees in retail are not the police and it’s not worth loosing your life chasing after a shop lifter. No matter what management tells you, the company will not have your back if it goes sideways. He is lucky he was only peppered sprayed. -
Who Here Has A Generator, And It Saved Them ?
TennesseeCamper replied to billt's topic in Survival and Preparedness
I have a small Jackery and I was looking hard at getting a larger one. Then I saw Ecoflow! The more I read the more I liked the brand. So I just recently bought a Delta 2 to power my refrigerator and a couple essentials. Tested it out and worked great. I have a Champion inverter generator and solar panels. I may add more later. -
A most Excellent Article about the Rich Prepping
TennesseeCamper replied to Moped's topic in Survival and Preparedness
You know the best laid plans and all that. “No battle plan survives first contact”. I agree most of those rich dudes either won’t make it to their elaborate retreats or they will find themselves locked out. It does make for a good article. I have read similar stories. Apparently quite a few of the super rich hunkered down in New Zealand to ride out the pandemic. -
Oh good ! I didn’t see that thanks.

Maybe ask this guy to take a look and just get his recommendation. https://www.midtndryervent.com/ They have always done a good job for us. Some how I would want this vented to the outside. BTW my home inspector didn’t find half the problems. One of those cookie cutter franchises American home warranty. My crawl space HVAC ductwork was a disaster and none of was mentioned even though he crawled it.

I always liked Spyderco since my first endura in the 90s. I still have it and a couple dragons. Now a days the Japan made Spyderco knives are pretty pricey. I recently bought a couple of the Chinese made Spyderco knives just to check them out. They are not bad for the price. But of course the Japan ones are far better.

I owned scanners for decades. I started when you had to buy plug in channels in the 70s. There is very little left for analog scanners. The weather channels, aircraft on rare occasion maybe fire or ambulance. Maybe in some rural counties if they haven’t upgraded you could find more. I just decided that it’s not worth pursuing digital for me. I used to dabble a little with 2 meter ham. That’s pretty much dead too.

Had ants before but not lots of them. Downy woodpeckers like the feeder a lot. I skipped this year. Maybe I will try when it cools down some. Have a hummingbird that comes by in the evening to hit the flame vine and day lilies.

I like the idea of a large caliber air rifle too, but I don’t think they will be very quiet, at least from the reviews I read. And you never know if a raccoon will go down on the first shot.

Have you thought about live trapping them? You can relocate them or dispatch them with a .22

I think the main culprits were birds in my case. I put a game camera on one frame. I saw robins and cardinals nothing else. I planted more seeds today and put the camera on a tree to cover more of the area. Starting some seeds indoors too. My first time planting sunflowers too.
-
So speaking of critters anyone ever successfully plant sunflower seeds and defend them from squirrels and birds. I planted around 20 sunflower seeds a couple weeks ago. Almost all were eaten when they sprouted or dug up. I am thinking of growing them indoors in peat pots and planting when they are larger seedlings.

I remember mole crickets I lived in Florida too. Not sure if we have them or not. But I would say it’s likely.

The bed is about a foot deep. No voices yet. I did remember something today. A couple weeks ago, after fishing I dumped a few left over night crawlers in that bed. Maybe it was them. No activity today
-
I don’t know, it happened twice on two different sides of the frame. I have seen moles moving under the yard before but they make a trail. This was just strange.
-
Saw the ground and plants moving right in front of me today. I couldn’t believe it. It was in one of the small raised beds I just started. i took a rake and scraped the dirt where it was happening. It stopped but I didn’t find anything. Later this afternoon I saw it again. Ground moving a tomato plant shaking. I stuck a small stick in the ground it stopped. Saw nothing a small earth worm came to the surface. What is happening? Is it moles? Is my dirt possessed?

3 killed at gun store/range
TennesseeCamper replied to White Goodman's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
It’s a tragedy and a terrible loss for that community. Prayers for Richard Hawk and family. I hope justice is done. -
I think those law enforcement surplus glocks are still a good buy. I have looked hard at them for years. If I were younger I think it’s a great purchase. I don’t really want any new calibers now and I think I should be moving the other direction and thinning the herd. I find the gen 3 to be perfect for me. All that said those .45 Glock 21s are awe fully appealing!
-
Never seen anything quite like that! One very lucky teenager!

I am very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you. God bless you both.
