Solo Cabin Trip - Sun, Wood, and Quiet

Time for a solo trip to the cabin to do a few chores and to test out some solar panels for our EcoFlow Delta Max generator. We are going to try to switch to it instead of running that generator. Even though the generator is very fuel efficient and relatively quiet, going to a solar generator is the wave of the future. Zero noise is just so nice up there, you can hear the wind in the trees and wont scare off any wildlife
I brought up a 400 watt solar panel to test how it would do in charging up our Delta Max unit. The panel is not something that can stay outside 24x7, but we are looking to put up two permanent panels on the roof with about the same wattage. The sun didn't really cooperate too well, but I was able to charge it enough to run the TV, DVD, fan and a couple of lights for the evening. Need to test it out a little more during the next few trips.
Also put up a shelf for the blue coffee pot that Sr. bought many years back. I added some hat pins to it, the Air force flag, 1970 Vietnam service ribbon, and a MIA/POW pin. I will add some more over time. In that same spot I finished off the table with some gray trim work.
Went into town to stock up on wood for the upcoming trips and Deer Camp 2021 when the weather turns cold.
Sit back and enjoy with a beverage of your choice.

Enjoyed the video as always! Just finished getting my gear together to make a run to the rifle range to check zero on my deer rifle (Savage Axis 2) and my squirrel rifle (Marlin Model 60). The steady improvements to the cabin look great and I’m sure are helping with comfort, enjoyability, and in remembering your friend and the Chairman’s father. As an Army vet I appreciate your respect for the soldiers, sailors, airmen and women, marines, and coasties. I hope the season is a good one for you and Sintax in Delaware and for all of the guys in PA. Hopefully another deer gets harvested but perhaps with better shot placement than Camp Cook’s “Texas Heart Shot” last year 😂🤣. Thanks for dragging us along and allowing us to escape the vagaries of life for a while to hang out with you. Greetings from South Carolina and I wish you all the best. Allan

Thanks for the kind words Allan. And thank you for your Service to this great Country. Have always had respect for the Men and Women in the Armed Services. Cook really wants a buck this year, hoping that happens for him. And yes, that shot was a little lucky, but I'm sure glad we found her. Good luck this season, and look out for another video in a week or so.

Would really like to make the move over to solar, not sure we can do it 100%, but close enough I think. The guy had two teams of horses he was dragging the logs up to the road with. A truck would then come and take them to the Mill. Take care also!!

Also I recently had the occasion to be solo for five night at our off grid cabin. The family tested positive for Covid so I stayed up there. What found was time before during and after dinner I felt the loneliness. Do you feel similar?

Shawn and I talked about that, not a lot of sun besides on the roof back there. We did talk to the tree guy about cutting some down behind the deck to open the view up. If so we may be able to put them right there. One reason we haven't made the commitment about installing them.

I was definitely thinking you should do some small game hunting while up in October. Go out with the .22 or 12 gauge and see if you can kick up a cottontail or upland bird. Such a great time to be outdoors in October before the big game season. I also highly recommend Tired Hands brewing outside of Philadelphia. Some of the best New England IPA, but you can usually only get it from the brewery.

Thanks Richie, there's some squirrels there, that's about it for small game. Will look for Tired Hands, may have to get one of the Philly guys to pick it up.

Hey Tom, another great solo camp video. You got a lot accomplished! Good lookin wood pile. If you have extra lumber under the cabin it wouldn’t be hard to a little enclosure to help keep the weather off. Probably something you’d want to do in the spring when you’d burnt through some of whats there though. I was thinking for extra activities you could bring along a .22 rifle and do some squirrel hunting. Even if you don’t shoot it’s a nice excuse for a long walk. Are you and the chairman still going to have access to the property off the mountain where you sat last year? That looked pretty promising in there! Also extra actives. Darts; cornhole; and bring a football the guys can toss around outside maybe. Projects, I guess making the shed more user friendly might be one place to start, but if were me I’d be building a box blind like the one you have in Delaware! Congrats to Mrs Rook! A lot of hard work I’m sure. By the way loved the Veterans wood block and what a great place for Old Blue! Look forward to the next one in a couple of weeks!

Hello Tim, glad you enjoyed. Was thinking of doing something for the wood to keep the weather off and not have to use the tarp. | have to check to see if we can still head over the other spot. I think it will be available since they are coming up the 2nd week again. I do have to clean up the shed again, doesn't take long to get disorganized. I have a line on a box blind that I will be mentioning in the next video, wont happen until we see about the logging. I ordered a pin for my Dad to put on the next time I head up. Enjoy this cooler weather!

So far so good with the grill, should reduce the flames shooting out the side when "someone" is cooking. Though I think I do miss a little of color of the meat that a regular grill has. But still getting use to it, I really only used it about 10 times. A lot more to come this year.

just a curious question, does your generator put out enough to run your kuerig? wondering why make the drip brew i thought you had a kuerig? i also have a deer shack and use a gas generator and wonder if it would run a coffe maker. good trip nice video.
@whiterook85
@whiterook85 3 года назад
Hi Brad, yes, the solar can handle the Kuerig fine, I just like the drip coffee a little more. I did bring up a drip coffee maker (electric) to use during Deer Camp. It can run that fine also when we need more coffee in the morning. Coffee makers are normally 1500 watts max, a gas generator will run that no problem. Really liking the quiet of the solar one though. Thanks!!

@whiterook85
@whiterook85 3 года назад
No, we can't do anything inside and let the water flow out without having a full septic installed. We make out pretty good with the shower bags, it's just those trips where it's a bit chilly out. We could build a "shower house' outside, but I think Shawn and I are the only ones that would ever use it.

Were you part of the union or part of management on 9/11? I was part of management at the time. Some of our guys went there to help get that building somewhat functional. We probably have mutual acquaintances. I also worked the two strikes in the 1990's in Delaware. I worked with Wayne and Bill and Terri and Arlene... we'll leave last names and the place out of the comments but you'd know them.

Was Management, but we were up to do some work on another location there. Just got the opportunity to check out what had happened to the building. Was declared essential during the 90's strikes, but did some copper work during the 12 one, was kind of fun. I think I would have made a good installer.
