They had some great prices on hunting rifles there the other day...definitely on my Christmas list. That and a security camera system.
Those are my two of my "big" items (I'll typically get at least one "big" present from the wife). The other big item on my list is a decent sized (about 46") HDTV to use for a gaming table (but that's a whole geek/nerd fest story of it's own).
Ok, that last paragraph was just rambling...end of the day and all that.

Managed to get some .22 LR and 5.56 green tip ammo this week to add to my stock, and a backorder of .45-.70 bullets came in for reloading. Its still hard to find .22 ammo, but just about everything else is pretty much available.

I got the sheathing mostly up on my front porch! It is south facing and I am closing it in to help with both heating and cooling the house. In the winter I plan to generate heat through the six windows, and let it into the house. In the summer I will open the tops of the windows to let heat out and use the shade to help keep the house from getting as hot. I also plan to use pots in each window to grow some stuff like spinache and chives that I like daily. This weekend I hope to have it wrapped in the moistur barrier and the windows installed. Trim and fiber cement siding come next. One of these days I need to take one off!

We're sending another load of stuff out to our BOL, or what we call "our finial resting place". Its over 2,000 miles one way. My daughter and son-in-law and are driving this load out. Once our house sells we'll take the rest out in my gooseneck trailer and a semi truck/trailer. I hate moving, but I hope to have it all done by start of trapping season.

I bought about 8 thornless raspberry plants a while back. They have grown great, and spread, only problem is they are blackberries! This year I got enough to make a 5gal batch of wine with them. It's almost done fermenting, but will still be a few weeks of clarifying/settling before bottling. I can't wait to try it! I have a lot of wild blackberries on the property, and am watering them to spread on the fence line, but they are 1/4 the size of the cultivated ones. Also it's hazardous to risk picking them with the thorns! What do you do with them? I haven't tried jelly or anything yet, but will next year.

True that. Its a messed up food system here. I stopped at a lil convenient store the other day because i forgot to bring water with me in my work truck. I had the choice between a 16oz water for 1.99$ or a 2liter pop for .99$. Are you kidding me??? No wonder diabetes and obesity are as high as they are over here...

Fast food is what 80% of everyone eats now. I just saw where Starbucks is putting something new into its pumpkin spiced latte, some real pumpkin! Kind of ironic that it made world news because a company's decided to use the real thing vs fake flavorings. I eat junk food some, but it's a splurge once in a while. I have noticed that most times I eat out it blows thru me in less than an hour! (Sorry for the graphic content
). But that should be telling me something. Even my stomache knows the stuff isn't good for you and tries to get rid of it quickly!

I'm still not sure how relevant the porch is to prepping, but I'm making some progress on it! I'll start installing the lap siding next. I do think it's wise to try and do all the projects you want to accomplish now, or soon, as if the economy and inflation go where I think they will, things are going to be a lot harder to do after the fact.
Good day every body.

After TSHTF some reflective foil and a few mirrors strategically placed and you have a superb place for growing tomatoes, potatoes, carrots both into the extension AND on the roof.
