We were going to rent a travel trailer for our 3-4 long weekend trips but my buddy works for a general contractor and had a shipping container that was made into a job office that isn't being used so we are making it into our Quail camp. Gonna paint it next weekend and put LVT flooring soon after that and them move it to Dickens first of November. Gonna build two twin bed frames down one side and use a cot if we have a third person.

Great start. Do you hire out?

We have a similar set up. A cargo box off an old delivery truck.

A good fire pit is more important that your plush lodging.

Got it painted and about 3/4 of the floor laid. Sorry, forgot to take a pic of floor when we got to where we stopped. Also, we removed the top shelf to make room for TV. My buddy is picking up our Dish Tailgater tomorrow, so we will have satellite tv.

All set up. Even got the satelite TV working. But only half way done with building our beds. Will finish that up next time. Really like the setup.

Find any mud holes for sticking your hunting rig? Love those stories.

Not yet, it wasn't running good so I got us back to camp before it stranded us. But I was telling my new hunting buddy about my ability to get it stuck. It's at the mechanic right now getting looked at. I'll try not to let you down Bill. We are hunting 7 sections just East of Dickens, I'm sure I'll find a way to stick it.
