Good Evenin' Coots!
Trucky, I've already got the Aux Still down by the pond, so I was thinkin' I'd head over to those small hills jest south of here. There oughta be a couple o' small valleys that are tree an' shrub filled. They'd make ideal sites for the emergency stills 'cause they're hard ta git to, an' the trees would shield the stills from overhead infrared snoopin' by the revenooers. The big problem is runnin' power that distance to enable the computerized controls. We may hafta use some sort of generator or battery bank to run those controls.
Pass the jug. I gotta ponder this situatiion!

K BG. I think I'll draw up some old looking maps with intricate directions head'n in the opposite direction and leave em lyin round the clubhouse. That a way if Deputy Fife, or some revenooers sneak in here whils't we're not here, or sleep'n, they'll think they found the jackpot and take off in the wrong direction. I found an old cave bout a couple miles NW of here looks like it's a home for a bear or mountain lion. It sure would be a great surprise for Fife, or the revenoo team to go snoop'n into...
And a Good Morn'n to the rest of the Crew!

Good Morning, Coots!
The WonderTub was makin' some funny noises yestiddy when I was out scoutin' around. Din't git a chance to look at it till this AM, but I found some grit in the knieffer bearing. Soaked it (the knieffer bearing) in Miracle Hooch an' it cleaned right up! WD40'd it and now it's purrin' like a Chessy Cat. Another problem solved with Miracle Hooch!
I found a couple o' nice sites for the emergency stills, but they're purty remote. We'll haveta use WonderTub to transport the supplies out there, an' like I said before, we'll hafta figger out a power source for the computer controls. I've got some ideas but I'm gonna hafta ponder a while to flesh 'em out.
Trucky, don't make too many "misdirection" maps. Just one oughta do the trick.........we only wanna give a hint, before they head out on a wild goose chase.
Pass the jug. I'm lookin' for inspiration!

We ain't been here long 'nough to tell if there's any bully cats, Zim. I seen some ornery snipes out back last night, though. Time for a snipe hunt. Well, after a jug an' a nap, that is.
Hey there, MrGG, Sit a spell. Oh good, it's a nice morning for a snipe hunt. The melting frost on the path glistening in the morning sun.

Who was lookin' for gals? Don't l count? I brung pretty flowers, and then they died. That garden of weeds out back is a draw to me, but l am going more into false flowers this year. I got old all of a sudden, with creakin' joints. And other stuff l won't even mention. My weed eater is long gone. How about a goat?
I like hangin out here and just sleeping in the hammock. glad there's more than one or l would probably be tossed.

Howdy Coots!
TRU, we're thrilled that ya stop in an' see us! We'll always have a hammock an' a jug for ya whether or not ya bring flowers or do some gardening. But be careful 'bout gittin' too close to Snots. He's a lovable old hound but he's in the habit of sharin' his ticks an' fleas. We din't have indoor plumbing in the old clubhouse an' sometimes we ran outa Sears catalogues, causin' some consternation, but here we have two indoor restrooms, with industrial strength exhaust fans! All modern!!!
OK, Coots! I got the two emergency stills installed, with heat disapating camo nets above them. I'm tryin' ta figger out how to use solar panels to charge the battery banks that power the computer controls. Since they hafta be exposed to the sun, they can also be seen by the revenooers' air borne cameras. We might hafta have a brain stormin' session to figger this out. Enny ideas?
Pass the jug. I've developed a thirst after all this activity!

Hey BG! Mayhaps we could disguise those solar panels as big sign posters advertis'n "Hiring for Hard Working Employees" You know how them revenooers hate hard work. Or really work of any kind.......... I'd imagine that just might keep em far away from here.....

Hi Tru. Yes you count as a girl. We even got a hammock with your name on it, so's you don't have to get tossed. Trucky, nice job on the signs. Fooled me! I wanted to stay away when I first say them. BJ, I been meaning to ask you. Didn't we have a stream at the old location for cooling purposes? Or was I just dreamin'? Good morning MrGG. Sit a spell and tell us how you like retirement. Here's a jug with a tax stamp on the bottom of it. You know, legit and all. :::holds back snicker:::
