Hate to admit it but it’s coming for all of us eventually. Keep doing what you can and keep your spirits up. Jim

Trying to distract from the fires ravaging my favorite canoe country I was thinking about a couple of other posts dealing with weighted anchors and rudders, and got me thinking about sea anchors and drogues. Any boat going in the ocean should have them and I had a sea anchor on my 32’ boat. A...

I saved this goal post Thule rack from the dumpster, it was in the free pile heading to the dumpster in a couple of days. I’ve never used one and I am not certain everything is here. The bars are 54” and 58” long. Everything is in real good shape. The man owned a Tacoma pickup. I’m not...

Beautiful photos, you went at a good time. Jim

Thanks for sharing the film, I’ve only watched a bit so far I’ll finish it this evening. Jim

Maine had a hazy red sunset last night and a hazy red sunrise till about ten this morning. Doesn’t look bad now but I expect another red sunset. Jim

It’s been almost 10 years since you started this post. Did you ever upgrade your reflector oven? I do admire your kit and should make a buck saw. Jim

That’s a nice set. Jim

Maybe with a bit more garlic it would at least taste better. Jim

I am battling that nasty weed too. Good luck. Jim

What is that in the tree, a hatchet or a saw or? Jim

Here you go. But this is more likely. Jim

I’m late to this party, welcome to the campfire. I agree it does sound like a storage problem to me. Jim
