What do you expect in a african bush camp

Gotta ask— is the shed with lockable gate for clients that miss or get drunk?

Nope its where my wife will lock me up when, I get back, even after I bought her that nice mouse pad at hooters,
 
Compared to my deer camp for 10 years in the 80's in south Arkansas, (Canvas Coleman tent and sleeping bag), this looks like a brand new Holiday Inn!

What is the first four words a little a little boy learns? "I didn't do it!) How do I get out of trouble now, ah! Those three little magic words every woman loves to hear "your right dear"
 
Great looking camp Lon. Should take care of everyone's needs.

Where do you hide the Tokoloshe?;)

Looking forward to hearing how your end of season hunts go.(y)

Only children can see the tokoloshe. If a adult sees him he swallows the magic pebbles and he disappears! No hiding involved@
 
Decent camp stretcher , tarp over the top for rain and heavy dew , bit of hot water for a wash( do that with the campfire anyway). Bit of lighting , cold beer , decent tucker , some cleaning gear , good company and done.

Sitting in the airport in New York, waiting for the SAA flight.
Wife called to give a camp update to do list.

Campfire, above ground with slash stone ring and sitting area.

Workers ablotution block.

Walkways, with solar lights.

Now the big one, years ago national parks put their boomgate for Chizirira NP in our conservancy, due to the fact the NP ranger may be asleep or worse! We have to build a road next to theirs with matching boomgates, real pain. By next year we should have theirs removed. We just posted our Mucheni conservancy no entry without permit "Hunting Safari Area". That should drive the greenies mad! Now the first legal shots have been fired, my wife is teaching our game rangers in proper firearm safety, handling and actual shooting. After the elections are over they will be properly equiped.
I get back to zim on saturday, sunday we go to Botswana for mattresses and more solar lighting. It seems to never end!
Cheers Lon

Yes its safe and very easy! Plus dont have the high costs of using a wire transfer! Pawprints uses it makes it very easy without added costs to the hunter! Can set up as monthly payments instead of one big lump sum of money at once. Some people are bad a saving but can easily just pay for it all up front in a monthly payment

I’m clear until 2:30. Want to meet in Boulder and I’ll buy you a lunch (hope they have a McDonalds!).
Or if you drive here, we have a pretty good little barbecue place?

Hi Phil,

I have not looked at the business card that I gave you but my wife said you e-mailed to her e-mail address. We just had a new batch of cards printed maybe they goofed on whose address was on whose card?

Had a great time meeting with you and enjoying the burger. I came out and I had a parking ticket and I still had 24 minutes to go!! No more Boulder, Co.!
 
Yes, IMO Boulder is an awful place not only politically, but traffic is awful, there’s no stores that have merchandise I’m interested in (well maybe Apple), too many trust funders that don’t know what a real day’s work is, too many spoiled college kids, etc, etc. Personally I hate going there.

Enough about miserable places. I just looked at the pictures again of your new tent camp. You guys have just done a great job putting it together! I’m thinking I should sell my house so I could have one grand final DG hunt with you and include elephant, lion, buffalo, leopard, croc and hippo. Maybe you could even find me a rhino to dart! Hmm...sounds very exciting, but I guess my wife would just want another bigger house:eek:!
Got to keep on dreaming though!
Have a grand season in your new tent camp! I hope to get to be there some time.
