[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2663191, member: 807"] I grew up eating mostly canned stuff, I can still remember seeing the little squirrels bodies packed 3 or 4 to a jar, no heads, or paws. They were really good, Mom used to take them out and make gravy with them or dumplings. You could also fry them and they were good as well. Lots of peas, beans, peaches, berries of what ever kind we could find to pick, and of course the wild plums. Best tasting cobblers in the world were the black berry and plum cobblers. We raised chickens, had fresh eggs and fried chicken on Sundays. Ate pinto beans and cornbread most days for lunch. I was a pretty big kid before I found out that salt pork wasn't bacon. As to S.E. OK for a Bugout-Cache area, If you were going to be there I would say no problem, but if you are planning to build something and leave it for periodic use, there has been a lot of vandalism and outright destruction of property there in recent years. If you plan to cache something, be sure to hide it well. Most of the soil depth in that region is pretty shallow unless you get near a river bottom or good size creek in a bottom area. Land has gone up a lot in the last few years, but is still a better deal than most of the rest of the state. A source of water is a big item in your search, drilling through that rock would be tough. I had kin folks all over that area, McCurtain and Push counties with hand dug wells, (or maybe blasted) so I know it can be done. I think somewhere down around Tom would get you to some tillable land and water, not much there though except maybe the drug trade. [/QUOTE]
