Thanks for posting the pictures. Nice to get to see what traders really look like!
I have seen babies being born easier than that leg tank!:) Did you name it?
Seriously that should be a nice addition to the maple operation! I have a 325 gal version for gathering, and like it a lot!

Tick Control, Red long sleeve shirt from my FA company I worked for in AZ last 2 years. I had a few on me today. I watched one die and torched the others. The spray from Sawyers is some good ****. This one tick was motoring up my leg when he stopped stood up on his back legs his front ones danced around a little like clawing at the air and then just fell off:D.

I Geocache, and have had Lymes disease twice….I now treat my geo-clothes with Sawyer as well. Stays on the clothes even after washing. Helped a lot last year, just can't believe that we need that kind of control ALREADY!:o

How come when I am almost ready to believe that there are normal people in this world somebody from Vermont makes me know for sure there isn't any. I wander why we don't have ticks up here.

Flatlander you my friend are a funny guy wether you are actually trying to be or not. lol I have decided that after watching 4 episodes of Pawn Stars tonight that you are officially the Chumlee of the trader. lol I shall call you that from now on. That dude makes me laugh so hard I cry. You need to put in your signature "The Chumlee of the Trader"
