Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[USMC615]

I'm back from vacation. The finger lakes region was out out standing. Turned my wife into a fisher-woman. She loved fishing. We took my 3 year old fishing today. My wife/daughter caught 3 bluegills.

We had such a great time we are starting to look into getting a place around Cayuga Lake and if course a fishing boat. I'm not sure where to start with the boat. This may take a few years but it seems like a great goal for us.

Way to go...great pics.

It's gorgeous there. I took a trip there many years ago. Letchworth state park seems to stick in my mind. 3 waterfalls and a big gorge. Everybody should have a boat!

Great pics of Watkins !!

Still hot up here so I took a break from unloading the trailer , took the dogs to the beach .

Long way down LOL

After we got back and ate supper I emptied the trailer , hand split the bigger stuff and stacked it in the softwood rack for drying

It was the wound left behind by a recently detached lamprey.

I thought so, do they generally survive that?

Went out tonight to consolidate two different old hickory stacks. I now have around 2 cord secret mini ice age stash of hickory, and 3 cord of secret stash oak polar vortex wood. That's all extra from my main stacks. Got this bonus pic as I was heading out the door, rainbow over my this year's fall wood.

Yes. We've had a couple of lakers with lamprey up to the boat and the lamprey only detached themselves upon realizing the fish was soon to be history.

They typically survive it with out issue.

The mouth on those lamprey look like a well/oil drill bit. Full of razor sharp teeth to open up a wound to feed from.

I remember from Boy Scout days, going to the Adirondacks and coming out of the water with stuff attached to us. Was kinda glad we did not have the same creatures in the lakes down here.

I guess I was wrong a little reading and the lampreys are a problem and they kill the other varieties of trout.

The Walmart near my house is closing in two weeks as there is a new super WM opening up across the highway.

I've already scored a few clearance items as they are closing down departments. Today I picked up a 2 pack of 3/8" low profile chains for $9. Does $4.50 per loop qualify as a you suck? Lol
