I’ll let you know…

@Matt:

@Paul9221 i did in fact have a pretty epic sale in the months leading up to out trip.  I sold an IHSH-87, a pair of IH-666LBs that I regret, and a bunch of other hot items.  I kept my 666XHS, 777V&S, 777D, 634SR, TW666N, Beatle Busters and 666ii.  My nylon jacket and my denim zip up.  About 10 or 11 IH and TW shirts including my 33, 64, some UHFs and 178, 4 belts, about 16 pairs of shoes/boots about 50 or 60 tees, not IH and various assorted socks( underwear, sweatshirts etc.  not bad for such a small space.  I’ll try to take some pics for you later.

Man, you kept way more than I had imagined!  I mean, I could maybe imagine a way if it was just you in there, but with a wife and two kids?  I gotta see your storage setup!

[Matt]

I’ll get some pics tomorrow in the daylight.  For now you’ll have to enjoy this Hunter’s Moon over Lake Whitney.  Happy Halloween!

@Paul9221

Some of it’s in the laundry and some of it’s in vacuum seal bags in a plastic storage bin in the truck.  But for the most part it all fits in half of this space…

Brilliant!  Thanks for sharing that.  I'll show this to my wife the next time she says my closet wouldn't fit in a tiny home

A woman from Kentucky told me to talk slower, I don't understand y'all.

When people walk by and see the MD license plate you’d think it said Mars instead.  We are a curiosity to the locals with our slick duded up city ways.  If we can make it through Election Day without an uprising or secession I’ll be content.  Of course depending how it goes, I could be the one wrecking shit up in here.  I can show them how we do civil unrest in Baltimore.

Let’s hope it won’t come to that, Matt.

I’m keeping my chin up and staying open to one of the only two options available to me.  And one of those is ex patriotism.

We haven’t been hiking in a long while.  Cleburne State Park was a great way to get ready for Big Bend Natl Pk.  We’re staying in the park for that one, our first Natl Park camping.  In the meantime today was a great way to experience some hiking that was a lot different than what we’re used to…

Here are some of the vultures that hang out in the tree in front of our campsite…

Waco Mammoth National Monument is an active archaeological dig site for Colombian Mammoths, the largest of the mammoths.  These fossils have only partially absorbed the minerals from the rock so they are still part bone.  This was a nursery herd and it’s they only one found in North America…

A well run campaign Mr Trump.  One conducted with honor, integrity and dignity.  Good luck in your future endeavors.

Now that history has been made let’s see more firsts when we find out just how much damage a lame duck president can actually do in 2 and a half months.
