So who knows what a killick is without looking it up? Glad you got it emptied. Jim

That is stunning! Thank you for sharing along the way. Jim

Glue in wood wedges. Jim

That’s a good question Alan. Jim

Thanks for sharing that Benson, I had no idea who made it. Jim

I’ve not seen that one but a friend has one made from leather that he buckles through his open gunnel. I might try making one if I can solve the hook part. Jim

I have no problem sharing my location. At 72 a lot can happen so I think it is important. Plus she enjoyed seeing where we were in the BWCA. I think it pinged every 4 hours to save battery life so she didn’t see the nuances. Jim

I hadn’t heard that yet. Jim

That should tune up nicely. Nice find. My favorite is a #3 . Jim

Another vote against staining. Jim

Wow, what a great trip. Thanks for taking us along. More later once I digest all this. Jim

That is him alright. That’s a whole group of happy campers. Jim

Welcome to the campfire Lake2, pull up a stump and stay for a while. Jim

That sign above the hood of the truck is interesting. Not sure I would want to advertise that. Jim

I haven’t had to shovel yet this year on the coast, but we do have some snow on the ground. Since I don’t have pressure from a job anymore I can shovel at my convenience. I don’t mind the snow that’s why we moved to Maine. Jim
