Nice! Wow some cool looking water. Have a grandniece named Lily and a good friend’s daughter is Lily.

Wow, thanks for sharing. So many questions because I just posted a possible easy trip into Millinocket area. 1. What are wolf trees? 2. Can you explain dri ki? Thanks. Boy i too was thirsty thinking about that. Kudos to you both.

Millinocket area is one of the ideas.

Come one come all! Where? Somewhere in Maine, northeast area. Robin has great ideas so I’m letting him be my guide. I just hope the bagels I bring last after the 400 mile drive. When? Around mid week August 16? But flexible for a few days around there. How long? I’d like to stay up there 3-5...

Bill, my wife will be in Clayton tonight. She just landed in Syracuse. Our niece’s husband has a few houses on one of the big islands. I love the area. Unfortunately I’m working south of Albany at a camp and can’t get there for a while. Wolfmans brother, not sure why but I think of the DJ...

Wow. That’s scary. All about luck sometimes. Whew. Pop up storm? About 10 days ago I picked up the same tent for our daughter. The NF tent i gave her is to large for certain trips.

Set up the Eureka No Bug Zone CT13 yesterday and what a downpour we had. I did not stake it out because I figured the winds would rip the webbing or the stakes would become projectiles. Today I raised it up to app 7 1/2 ft and used trekking poles for the short ends around 40” high. I like it...

I just ordered the Eureka 13x13 bug screen. I like the ccs bug screen and I know their quality is top notch but the price savings will be used for something else.

Thanks Al, I have the Trekker and Alaskan Jr. Might give Robin a shot at shortening the Trekker. Hey, what the heck! The fire box was tiny in the Ti stove I had but so was the teepee. Which caused me to toss my quilt to close to the stove one chilly night. Feathers all over. That story...

My condolences to his family and friends. Sounds like a really cool guy to be friends with.

Al, that looks great. I’m dreaming of a vacation thinking about your set up sitting in usual bumpa to bumpa traffic this morning. Which Ti stove is that? I sold my Winnerwell 2 years ago and should have kept it for your type of camping. Now I’m rethinking it over again. Seek outside?

Very cool, congratulations. Thanks for sharing. Our daughter is getting married in September. I wonder if he would like a trip lake that? Thanks for sharing. Funny about hearing the ache and pain and Dr stories.

Waterspyder turned me onto Fox paddles gosh, 8 years ago? I bought a short bent paddle to use with my Rapidfire. Then I bought a very long double blade 270cm ( wanted 260 but he didn’t have and I drove to his house(shop) and didn’t want to walk away without something. Oh so pretty. I had a...

Thanks guys, just looking at different tents and shelters. I need to be careful because I have retirement ideas in 2 years and always thought about an RV or trailer to keep the Mrs more comfortable. I do like the CCS lean but the canvas look. Best wishes to all.

Enjoy, can’t wait to see this beauty when finished. I’m sure another green beauty.

This was Lake Taconic ( sorry I just get brain fog when spelling it the other way) on an October Saturday. Still had to pay for the put in. I’m game either place plus I’d camp out somewhere and relax before driving into traffic.

Lake Taghkanic is actually not a bad idea but it does fill up during the summer season. Would this be a mid/late summer or early fall?

I work at a sleep away camp near lake Taghkanic (off the Taconic parkway) and it’s just a large lake to paddle around. They do have a daily fee to paddle there. I think I paid $8-$10. They have campsites which is probably through Reserve America. I did paddle (kayak) in the Hudson near...

Gee Al, I go to the tent section and there you go! Last winter I messed up and rolled to close to my ti stove and woke up to feathers all over. Sold that small teepee and stove. Now I wish I kept the stove. I have a ST 9x11 but want something like Robin uses. Looks like a Baker or Lean your...

Al, thanks for the invite over to your area. My buddy was recently looking at houses on the PA/NY border, close to Binghamton. I did notice how clear the water was on LG, beautiful. I’m going to retire in 2 years, then the tripping begins! Was looking at small campers and teardrops to keep...
