2025 Christmas gifts

[BenP]

I received an extra battery for the chainsaw and then the wife bought me slippers and pajama bottoms... I don't use those so I think it was another gift she plans to take out of my drawer to use herself.

Rest from family was money mostly which will likely be used for a plane ticket in February, my middle brother is moving to Montana and I'm helping him move and will fly back.

I got a pair of Duluth Trading Company Buck Naked Boxer Briefs with the bison pattern in my stocking. I will take a selfie later tonight.

Too bad CamoFire isn't around anymore. The would have probably had a special on muley freak boxers.

I thought that was the Meat Eater version??

My wife got me a 10/22. I’m going to take my daughter out shooting tomorrow and break it in.

No those were the edible ones that you could combine with buck nuts and caul fat to make a stew

I got a nice selection of my favorite gift to receive - cash.

Got a couple of books I’m looking forward to reading, one is about the Edmund Fitzgerald and the other is by the author of “The Martian.” Both highly recommended from lots of people.

Well they better come with a sticker so I can slap it on the back window of my truck so everyone in Bozeman knows I’m a legit

My wife is too kind to me. Skre Hardacrabble jacket and a First Lite Challis Fleece. Elk hunting in the wind this year had me complaining about my layers not cutting it (pun intended). New Casio watch for everyday use. I got her some greenhouse supplies and a greenhouse design book for inspiration.

I’m sure I’m not the only one with a couple of case knives… Not sure where my little brother tracked this one down

I ruined the surprise, but got myself a pre Christmas gift…

After weeks of pestering I finally gave my wife some ideas. Basically it was screen shots I had taken for my own use. A new pack frame and a new backpacking tent. Both were from the Cabela's website. So the misses drove 1hr and 10minutes 1 way to Cabela's. While grateful for her dedication I asked why she did not just go to Bass Pro which is 20minutes and sells the same thing. Apparently that was the wrong question. I did not provide those details and it was my fault She got me the tent. A Kelty Late Start. I typically use a Cabelas 4 man and share with a partner. But next years trip will be a bit more rugged. And the guy I am taking is messy and never stops talking. All things that a separate tent will help mitigate.

My wife did well a new 11lb sausage stuffer from Walton’s. My old one got out of alignment (not a Walton’s) and was a workout/cuss fest everytime I used it. Perfect timing as I normally make most of our sausage after deer season between Jan-Mar. View attachment 397098

Be looking forward to the review. We need to upgrade.

I got two three year old nuttall oaks from my parents. The man at the nursery says they'll start producing acorns around year seven. Very much looking forward to gathering and pla ting oaks with my kids.

Had a great Christmas. Got a CZ 457 American in .22 LR and a VX Freedom in 4x12. Looking forward to dialing in it soon. Also have an MDT Field Chassis ordered to try on a Savage Axis. It’s late, but supposed to be here Monday.
