Finally replaced all our lighting needs with single cell AAA lights increasing space and reducing weight of our B.O.B and I.N.C.H. bags. Replaced our Black Dimond revolt headlamps with Black Dimond storm headlamps.

A friend gave me two hams and two shoulders from a large buck he shot. So far I've only sliced both hams and have 5 gallon baggies full of meat for making jerky. I have the first batch in the dehydrator right now! I hope to have some ready by morning. I forgot how much work it was to clean all the meat, but it's well worth the effort. Luckily I have a slicer so at least that part is easy. I froze 4 of the bags, and will hopefully finish prepping the two shoulders tomorrow. I think one shoulder will just become a roast, although jerky is by far my favorite.

I was thinking about my good friend Jontte today and pulled the trigger on a 91/30 with everything you see in the pictue. All matching numbers and about 200 rounds of ammo. I will pick it up sunday.

Well, the first batch of jerky turned out great. This one was mostly soy, garlic, pepper, and onion. I kept it kind of mild to get something my wife could eat. The next batch will have a little kick to it, more to my taste. I forgot how good venison could be. I gave the guy who gave it to me a big bag of it. It never hurts to be appreciative.

Man, I miss making our own jerky. We did it as a kid in Alaska, and did it with salmon, deer, and caribou all the time. The smell of fresh salmon in the smoker is just....wow.....

I've never tried salmon or fish in the dehydrator or smoker before, but I say don't knock it till you try it. Veneson is awesome though! Caribou sounds pretty good too. Luckily I'll have plenty for a few weeks anyway. Guess I'm going to have to start hunting one of these days.
