Great series of photos of your camping expedition, Paul. Both of those knives look very practical.

There are a lot of really nice outdoor photos on this page. I think my favorite is Ike's wheat thief.

I'm a big fan of Kephart, the man and the knife. Yours is a really great looking example, nice work ::tu::

That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend. ::tu::

We had some undocumented farm laborers with us early this morning. We downsized our garden this year because of our age and the undocumented helpers have totally destroyed most everything we planted. :( Here they were early this morning, there were 5, couldn't get them all in the picture together.

need to get a Deer Depredation Permits (DDEP) which authorizes the lethal take of deer causing damage to crops or property.

Sorry to hear that, TF. We had the same thing happen to us a couple of years ago. We had just started to get a little produce out of it, and the deer and cotton tails came along and wiped it out. We haven't had one since. I was thinking of setting up some raised beds inside our fenced-in back yard at some point. Of course the rabbits can still get in the fence (Ruger has killed 2 this year - he's fast!). And the deer could jump the fence, but I don't think they would. We seem to have a bumper crop of cotton tails this year. The one below dug a little hole to cool off in.
