Nice, Curt! What's that machine in the last photo? It looks like some kind of stump-jumping root rake to me. And what is the wig-wam looking-thing to the left of the blind? I know turkeys are a big part of your Thanksgiving Day traditions; do you eat them all year round, or put them in the freezer for that one day? Cheers, Ben
