Good thing I got my working sessions up north in before I went overseas. Now that we are well into the hot weather season it would be much less fun.
Some things have not worked out. I've written on several occasions on The Bean Project, whereby I'd take pounds of surplus Navy, Black and Pinto beans and turn them into huge feed lots for the plumpification of next year's venison harvest.
The results were underwhelming. I planted hundreds of them in shallow scrapes and just tossed handfuls off into open areas. Most just vanished. Although in one area where we had turned the soil over well last year they are fighting it out with the thistles....
Also, I had plans to put in a rudimentary "facility". Well, an outhouse if you must know. As mostly guy users there is no problem with stepping outside and watering the nearest tree, but on infrequent occasions more dedicated facilities could be useful. Staying over night in the one humble structure already on the site could make those evening and sunrise hunts much easier.
Alas, there are pesky rules and regulations on such matters. Specifications. Soil inspections. Fees to pay. A permit. Sigh.
Such are the puny efforts of man. Or at least of this man. But nature continues on without much notice of said efforts. It was a mild winter and game populations seem to be robust. A couple of recent trail cam pictures....
Awww....
