    Portable Generators--What Brand?

    240 would be nice, but I don't want to put a massive dent in my wallet over it. We generally aren't without power for too long. I just want something that can keep our perishable items safe so I don't have to dump everything we have stored in our fridge and freezers.

    Portable Generators--What Brand?

    Is CWD the Imminent Doom for Hunting?

    If we are certain that CWD doesn't affect domestic livestock and that they each have their own form of prion, why would we think that it would affect us? Again, the deer in the field has CWD, but we don't worry or test the cow feeding in the same field.

    Is CWD the Imminent Doom for Hunting?

    Building a Home Now--Smart Move?

    I am looking into having my home built on my property. I have heard two different views on this. A. Do not build now with the current rates. Wait until rates drop and then build. B. Build now while rates are high. No one is building and material costs are low. Once/If the market fixes...

    MEAT dehydrator

    Any problems with the chrome plated trays? I've been looking at the LEM with stainless trays because I figured the chrome plating would flake off at some point.
