    That's a really good idea about getting the barrel out of the truck. Better than man-handling it.

    Thanks for sharing with us Okie. Beautiful lake, and peaceful place to camp. Great copper haul tooSome advice on the kayak you plan on getting. Watch as many youtube training video's as you can find. Learn how to get back in after fall out. Practice that and get the safety equipment you need too. I retired at 70 years old, and got one, and have really enjoyed it for the past 6 years. I live on Lake Ft Gibson and there are so many places to go fishing here. I had to sell my motorcycles, but I can still Kayak. LOL

    I am looking at the feelfree moken 10 pdl. it will be to get off the shore to fish, to have fun in, and to get some leg and upper body workout. I will be 69 in February, so the exercise will do me good. I would love to live on the lake, about a 40+ minute drive to any lake around here.

    @@Okiescrapper That's a pricy little item, but worth the cost for sure. An early morning paddle watching the annimals skitter along the shoreline, the birds being fussy, and the deer having an early morning drink sure makes for pease in your soul. Just saying it might be more fun than scraping.

    Our lives have such parallels, both do maintenance, scrap and I bought a new kayak a few weeks ago! LOL I've been too busy dragging it home to get anything processed. Now comes the summer heat! IDK about OK, but here in LA (lower Alabama) we have terrible humidity.

    we have bad humidity here too, south wind getting the moisture off the gulf coast, if I took the milage restrictions off the add I would be very busy bringing it in too. but I don't want to spend that much time driving to and from, trying to keep it around 20 miles from home. I am looking at the feelfree moken 10 pdl. I am very close to the weight limit so I will need to shed a few lbs. but as is have about 30 lbs. left for gear.

    well it is kind of like crypto and stocks, you hold till it goes up and make more, not sure how having your copper stored in 55 gallon barrels and inside a horse trailer makes your place look like a dump, may get it for free but it took gas to go and pick it up, and time to process it. plus electric
