Oh yeah! And I likes me some bacon!!

No pig in the trap. I'm thinking this ol pig is smarter than I thought. I figured that he would be all over the apples in the trap. Perhaps he isn't a "vegan"?

4 AM, sounds about right for you Tony. Grab your cup of coffee and have some fun. If you're afraid, take Kathy with you, she'll cover your 6.

Seriously, in the middle of a swamp in the dark does sound a little spooky. Even here at night can be a little spooky. We don't have sidewalks or street lights and you wonder what's moving around out there when you hear things.

So what's going on? When is this pig roast?

No pig yet. Had a bunch of apple peelings in the trap, but the stinking coons ate all of it. Went and bought a bag of corn and it's still there. A few days ago, I heard a bunch of gunshots before sunrise just down the road. I'm wondering if someone else killed the bastard? Pig hasn't showed up on the trail cam for a few days, sooooo.

You mean someone stole your bacon?

That's what it's looking like. Haven't seen him on the trail cam lately. Lots of other critters, but no hog.

We have been cleaning up all the trees and branches that the hurricane knocked down along the river road. There are some big ass branches hung up in the other trees. Not sure how I'm going to get those ones down.

Got the big ass branches down. I put the ladder in the box of the Gator, climbed to the next to top step, wrapped a sling around the branch, hooked a tow chain to the strap, and pulled the bitches right down. You Tube material, I tell ya.

You've turned into a real redneck Tony. I think I would have let nature take care of it.

No pig. One got hit by a car a quarter mile down the road. Sure makes a mess!

Got more tree limbs cut down and brushed out back at the river. Hank, you remember that woods that was in the front of the house, where you parked the motor home? It's gone now. Cut all but the bigger trees down, pulled all the vines, and raked the ground with the tractor. Sure looks different now.

Kathy has the trail cam set up in a different spot. Got an 8 point and a 6 point living back there. The 8 point looks pretty big for deer size down here.
