I think I slept well.

Poisoned sicklepod.
Then it rained.
Tore two shirts
Drank champagne
Planted a bauple nut tree

Groceries, brush cutting and whatever as I can see the future, but that's of no concern. Dill is starting his second solo crime fighting adventure (considering how well the first one ended, I should probably stop, but I'm stubborn and that bastard crossed my land. That is personal now. The road? Not my business). Operation Autistic Loser.

Today will be searching for surveillance devices so I'm not seen and then emplacing my own (I have a couple of trail cams), at a couple of strategic locations (same path used yesterday and pointed at something specific from within my boundaries). Outside of "biker" likely asking neighbor about me, which the latter would have said no problem, I'll be still good. Why are drug dealers looking like cops trying to look like drug dealers though? I got a picture of the guy yesterday, which is one of those simple joys of life. I have a list of observations, but will refrain from mentioning. Can't tell my mother, as that'll stress her which won't help her illness (she might read this, but likely not, as not Haven); I told her I heard/saw someone, as I can't fully hide things, but just said it was likely the neighbor.

I'm working on the assumption the neighbor isn't autistic and doesn't post here. Records kept here in case it doesn't end well.

I don't intend to be seen, and that's probably the one other thing I'm good at. I know the game. Yeah, the cops won't care, which is why I didn't bother, and they may or may not be cops/affiliated anyway considering what this one dude looks like, along with the previous one (which would kinda make the threat level high, but I overestimate everyone anyway). My father was on this side of the drug game, and I know what "genuine" dealers look like, and these dudes don't look like them even if they are doing the same thing. Maybe these are "higher-class" ones, lol, and the HAM radios with whips, lack of navigation aids and a clear idea of where to go, shows a little higher skill ceiling.

I just intend to get photos and videos of whomever crosses my land (which annoys me quite a lot).

There'll likely be a party in a month or so at said neighbor's (yeah, that was a joke about him maybe posting here).

Yes indeed if these people are as you say, and they are using ham radio gear.Then one might consider they are serious about whatever kind of activity they are engaged . The ones, I ran into were using ham radio frequencies to communicate . And used them regularly . Be careful please. Bao fang makes a hand held ham radio .that can be set up to scan a vast amount of frequencies , and can scan in closest transmissions first . Also there now , is something called software defined radio , which is the poor mans ham radio set up that works with a antenna and a usb plugin attachment into your USB port on your home computer . Being aware of their communications can provide you a huge advantage . FYI … Do be careful.

Today. Hm. Got some housework done, got a decent walk/run in, took a nap, made a milkshake...

Cooked red beans and rice
Ate some chocolate
Showered
Blogged some

Yeah, he had a Baofeng with whip (mountains). I probably should get a receiver of some kind just to see what's going on in the local area, but I've always been low tech in this regard; I just like to know how people communicate. I got good pictures of it all when following. All new gear. Nothing worn-in. I likely spooked the last one that took the road so they went off-road because I was staring too much, mostly because I saw that one a mile away and wanted to see the reaction (I guess I got it). Thanks, but I'm cool. If you're aware of potential threats, they aren't much of an issue, at least to me. It's when you don't know they are. I'm gonna retrace his path all the same when I set up a camera (which I guess I'll do now and be what I achieve of note today), as the "white" will still be there, and I may have missed something. Seems like the type of people that'll use the same path if they don't get spooked IMO.

I have a hunch where the dude went, and I'll see if that one pans out.

I managed to be the most productive person at the task that I was assigned to do today.
This surprised me, and it surprised those that were responsible for the "competition".
It remains to be seen if I will get the "prize" for being able to do this, as almost all people in the department I'm currently being regularly assigned to are women, and I notice that when a woman doesn't win, often it just gets "dropped" until one does.
Misandry is much more common in the workplaces today and I find that offputting as women have long complained about misogyny during my lifetime. So it's clear to me that about as many women are willing to commit misandry as there are men who commit misogyny. A bit off-topic so I'll quit on this topic here.

SIGINT would be useful, yeah, especially for recordings as evidence, but I'm stuck in another world of relying on nothing/what I have on me. I doubt they'd use anything actionable in the clear though. I set up a single trail cam. There was surveillance devices at a certain place. CCTV along with remote stuff. Guess that answers that one. Sigh. My hunch was wrong. I tracked where the guy went yesterday because the "white" was still there, and he went to...that neighbor's house, rear of the house (the boundary is pretty close to mine near the road); he actually did something smart and went in a long U pattern to reach his destination. That answers that one too. Double sigh. Wanted this one to be not what I thought.

I'll hands off this one, but I'm going to film/take photos of any of them on my land (it involves me in that context). I guess another few months of wait at least.

Managed to get a full nights sleep tonight ……. First time in awhile …

Yesterday...
Removed lantana
Pulled weeds in the field
Pulled weeds in the chicken coop
Salvaged an old oil drum and lined it with mesh to make an incinerator for all the weeds
Did some shopping
Patched my shirt. Quite badly. The tear was in an awkward spot.

Interviewed someone today to do some work around the place for alittle while . Trying. To figure out how to celebrate. Valentine’s Day by myself .??.? Btw Happy Valentine’s Day. To all readers of this thread.
