River Day 05/31/2021 (aka Memorial Day)

 Jay, Ted and I had a little River Day/Memorial Day Celebration at Jay's this Monday.  We had nice looking weather, but it was still a little cool - 60's with clear blue skies.

The bear on Jay's workbench looks a bit different than the last set of pictures I posted - he got a new paint job over the weekend (the bear, not Jay) and it turned out pretty nice.  And as you can see in the pictures we decided a little re-enactment was in order.

Next our conversation turned to speculating how heavy the little critter was.  I guessed between 40-50 pounds, while Ted and Jay both estimated 60-70 pounds.  So in true Rivertarian form, Jay retrieved a bathroom scale for the final word.  Check the photos for the results.

This week we had a small visitor who also added his two-cents worth concerning the bear:

It's always nice having Rivertarians-in-training attend meetings on occasion.
