Ha, knew that would be coming. Need to replace the POS GE unit I put in a couple of years ago. If anyone can recommend a brand that is worth a chit I'd appreciate it.

This weekend is the 1827 Militia Muster at San Felipe State Historic Site just outside Sealy Tx. Event centers around the muster of local militia (in accordance with the constitution of Mexico and obligations in the land grant agreement) to assist federal troops when necessary. This weekend will center around the militia preparing to assist troops with quelling the Fredonian rebellion at Nacogdoches.
I am to give a short talk on hunting that went on in the colony and the typical firearms that might have been used by the colonist. Nothing academic or fancy.

Working an event tonight called "Night to Shine". It's sponsored by the Tim Tebow foundation and is for kids with special needs.
RO'ing and shooting in USPSA match tomorrow, then leaving Sunday to drive my youngest son to do his MEPS for the Coast Guard on Monday morning.
Busy weekend.

That sounds really cool Kaywoodie. Do y'all re-enact different events through the year or just this one?

screw that cutting firewood........this NG stove runs for $2 a day in the dead of winter
Had a buddy last fall have a tree fall on him....while cutting on US Forest...long story short....
expensive helicopter ride to Provo Utah...lucky to be alive......slow recovery still
Be careful out there with them there chainsaws....
T-111, cultured stone, plastic plants covered in plastic snow, a propane wood stove and a basket of presumably real firewood. Is that a return vent in the ceiling?

Yes. We have different events throughout the year. Texas Historical Commission is dropping a big hunk of change on reconstructing a period correct (and ADA compliant 😁) city block of San Felipe to be ready by Stephen Austin’s birthday weekend Nov. 2021. San Felipe was never really rebuilt after it was entirely burned to the ground during the runaway scrape in ‘36. Last November they started on the pit saw which is going to be real cool. Using local post oak timbers for it’s construction.
You can follow the progress on the historic sites public facebook page. Don’t gotta be on facebook to see it. I generally divide my time between San Felipe and Presidio La Bahia (Goliad) when I can. Nice stone presidio to stay in at La Bahia! 😉 Neither are that far for me to drive.

NG not LP which costs a fraction of LP......
Ceiling vents allow heat to flow upstairs to next level
