This is a great day to christen!  Deer meat on the woodstove, a little cribbage, a few frosty cold ones, yep, people can have their portables. 😁

Thanks guys it’s a upgrade for me for sure . I have had a converted pop up camper for about last five years really needed something little bigger . This is the 8x12 really pleased with the room inside. Still a lot of finish touches I’m looking to do but was running out of time just wanted to get it on the pond.

Monster!  Very nice.  How easy (or not) did it pull across the ice?  Loading and unloading off a trailer must be a chore.  This is my first year with a 6x10.  Excited, and nervous.

My side by side pulled it with no issues if the snow would have been deeper probably been different story. Getting it off the trailer now that was a chore I have a 8x20 aluminum top deck drop deck trailer extremely tight width wise they loaded it with tractor I used winch to unload off trailer till I could hook up to machine. I will come up with different trailer when I pull off ice I think.

I actually bought four catch hole covers for the floor kinda wanted to see were I would place them after using for a little bit and glad I did because I think I’m only going to use two of them.
