What did you do WITH your TJ today?

Unknowingly ran over a young rattlesnake with my passenger tires while pulling into the driveway tonight in the LJ.

I mercy killed it with a shovel and tossed it where the owls, hawks, or coyotes can hopefully get it. Even with no head, it's body pulled its tail end that was hanging off up onto the shovel and coiled up as I took it across the street to the nature park.

Met up with a buddy on his property to do a little exploring and roving through the woods. Five years ago, this property was completely overgrown and hadn't been touched in 30+ years. We started cutting some trails, clearing brush and trees, and making an area for a private shooting range.

At some point, we'll build a small cabin. For now, it's just a nice place close to home that's in the middle of nowhere that makes for a fun time in the woods.

One of my dreams is to have enough property to be able to do this. Looks like it was a lot of fun!

That's also my plan. His property is actually only 4.5 acres. But it adjoins around 30 acres of family property, so it's no big deal to wander onto the adjacent land.

As soon as I finish fixing up the house I'm in now (on 2 acres), our plan is to sell and get a minimum of 20 acres. I want to see no houses from mine, be away from the road, and have enough room for a couple of 2-3k sqft garages, my own shooting range, and maybe a pond.

Also will need a centrally located sniper tower to pick off anyone that even halfway considers stepping on my land, because the whole point is to be away from EVERYONE.

Basically exactly what I want as well. 🤘🏻
