River Day 09/19/2016

 
Another non-river River Day this week, but River Day none-the-less.  Jay, Ted and I enjoyed a relaxing holiday at Jay's house, where we worked a little on an on-going project.  Schedules had been up in the air right to the last minute, so we made the call not to go to the river this go round.  Tim and Pat weren't able to celebrate with us.  And for some reason, Freddy won't make the drive up.

It's probably obvious that we did NOT have a fire this week (unless you count Ted's stogie), but if we had, I'm sure it would have been the best one on...Franklin Ave.

Since we were in more confined spaces, there wasn't a lot of moving around, so not to much activity to speak of.  Our work on the project (still on-going) was mainly around the bench vise where some highly detailed art work was completed.  Yes, it took all three of us to get it done.  A little stain and polyurethane later, and another step completed.

We did get a few pics for the blog this week - enjoy!

River Day 08/29/2016

 
Only four of us at the camp this week, well, not counting Freddy.  Jay, Tim, Ted and I made it down for a short(er) celebration.  The weather was great for River Day - sunny and warm.  Probably won't be too many of those left.

Not much going on this week.  We didn't even light a fire.  According to Freddy, Leo has already moved to the big city, leaving his camp vacant.  Lots of changes.  Seems like it's been the year for changes.  Oh well, such is life.

No one did any fishing this week, despite the season winding down.  Sometimes we get lucky and catch some of the bigger ones this time of year.  We just didn't bother this time around.

As usual, a good time with great friends.
