Once again, claymore, thanks for the recommendation for The Colony. I just watched the second episode of the N/A first season (your next year's second season), and I am HOOKED. This series is GREAT!! I have not seen anything that I could not, or would not do in similar circumstances. The guy from the first episode that I had thought was worthless, just made a forge and bellows. then found a steel U-channel extrusion laying around, and hardened and flattened it into a fantastic machete. Then found some steel re-bar, and hardened it to make a spear to kill wild boar that the colony members have seen in the local bayou. Another guy made a smokehouse to cure any meat that they catch, and another guy made a shower (most colony members are complaining about how badly they all smell). A couple of traders came chugging up the creek in a boat, and traded with the colonists, and left them with a generator and welder, along with a huge amount of fresh fish and fresh fruit. Two new members wandered into camp, and they are now up to nine members.
I won't keep posting about this series- if this "isn't your thing", you won't care, and if it is, you are already watching. Jump in any time- you will enjoy what you see without having seen previous episodes. On the Discovery Channel- look it up on your cable or satellite service.
