Default Tips and Tricks

Anyone have some advice to share? Not talking about directions to your honey hole or your killer bait, just general stuff to make outdoor life a little easier. Little things you figured out or learned from someone. This may have been done before and if so I apologize.

I'll start.
You ever had an ice chest that needed a serious cleaning? You fill it with bleach water and intend on coming back to wash it. You forget about it or just get too busy and by the time you get to it the water pressure has caused the box to swell some. Now the lid doesn't seal worth a dang.
Easy fix
Open the lid and lay it on the ground in the sun. Hinge side on the ground. Put 2 cinder blocks on the up side and let it sit. The heat and the weight will get it tight again. Let it go a little tighter than it should be because it will open up some with a few uses.
