Just renewed, now over $500 with all.the fees and crap.
Just a PSA that one of the best gifts you can get your kids are lifetime licenses. Imagine what NR license fees will be in 10-20 years.

re: You guys excited about 50 year mortgages?

I just don’t see what benefit this is going to offer. A 200k 30 yr 6% loan and a 200k 50 yr 7% loan are within a couple dollars of the same payment ($1200).
I’d rather see something like people being able to buy down there interest rates with hours volunteered, etc.

I have the thermostat probe for the heater in the soil and have it set to turn on at 50 degrees. The last two nights the heat kicked on when the when the air temperature inside the greenhouse was about 40 degrees (40.2 and 39.9 to be exact). Once the heater came on it quickly climbed. Should this be be ok for mango and papaya?

I’m just doing the 24hr package on sling for $6. If you want to get the SEC network you have to pay $1 more.

Somewhat immune? You mean by making the best selling car in the world? I’d argue Ford, etc are struggling in the electric vehicle market because Tesla produces a vehicle that’s 3-4 years ahead of anyone else and at a very reasonable price.
re: Registering a new kayak trailer in Louisiana
Posted by TimeOutdoors on 11/5/25 at 8:34 am to PillageUrVillage
I just did this last week for a kayak trailer I bought from tractor supply. I honestly didn’t even look in the packet to see what all was included, but I think the main thing they needed was just the receipt. For me it was about $350 (honestly) for a $1350 trailer.
Registering the kayak was more difficult (needed if you have a trolling motor on your kayak).
Edit: For those looking at trailers, check out Fish-TX trailers as well. TSC had the personal watercraft Karavan trailers on sale for $1350, or I probably would have gone another route. The trailer is great, but I would have liked a little extra room to attach a lockbox for straps, etc.

One of the great things about the State/Arkansas game was that it gave the Arkansas fans practice blaming the refs for the loss. It was great practice for their basketball fans.

I usually put it up and leave the windows open. Tonight is the first night I’ve closed. The windows and plugged in the thermostat and heater. I’m going to swap out my Govee with something else (probably go with your recommendation) on a WiFi controlled thermometer with an alert system.

Make sure you have some way to be alerted if the heater dies
I have a GoVee that gives me temp and humidity. I have never messed with the notification settings, but I’m pretty sure it’s capable. Do you have an alert set for your max temp too?

Set my greenhouse up today and will install the heater/thermostat tomorrow. I was reluctant to buy more plants this spring because I was afraid I wouldn’t have room and now I wish I had purchased a few more. What do you leave your thermostat set to?
re: Anyone built their own smoker?

We mainly cold smoked things in Alaska and just used tin. It was usually tin salvaged from old buildings so nail holes didn’t matter.

I’ve been trying to use it more and become more familiar with it. One of the things I’ve learned is to treat it like a team member (offer feedback) instead of just asking questions. I’m going to use it more next year with fishing. I want to start logging data on water temp, fish caught, lures/water clarity etc and see how it does recommending fishing locations, etc. Depending on how much hunting I do this winter, I might do something similar with a hunting journal.

I kind of like the idea treating it the way Alaska does. Create a dividend fund with the money.

I’m not seeing where NRCS employees are being laid off. Do you mean he’s been furloughed as part of the shutdown? You know he will receive back pay for the time he was furloughed right?

Don't rule out hammocks before buying a tent. I have a warbonnet, but used a Hennessy for years.
If you do decide on a tent make sure you get one with plenty of ventilation. I like the MSR Hubba Hubba, but it is pricey.
