Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[nomad_archer]

After dinner I headed to my hunting cabin for a checkup. While I was there I cut a few of last fall's scrounged trees with the little saw.

Had some "beer" before I headed home.

How far is the hunting cabin from home?

Had a 98 2500 with the 5.7. Never should've sold that truck. Tough as nails.

I leased a 98 z71 when I graduated from high school. Reliving my youth with this one, less the straight pipes.

It's the old 18-20-25 motor. Weighs less than 100 lbs with electric start. The later 25-30-35 were the same block size and weigh in at about 125 or better.

Oh that's right, the 35's were through prop exhaust.

I had a 25 same as yours.

Nice my family hunting camp is 250 miles from me. I may be a touch jealous.

Now, how far are you from here? Never been there!

 

[svk]

Now, how far are you from here? Never been there!

1400 miles Mike. But you can connect NY to Minneapolis to Duluth and be here in about 6 hours.

 

[MustangMike]

The only way I could make it in 6 hours is if you have all the cops respond to some emergency away from where I'm driving! Well, maybe 10 hours!

Well boys, we don't have many oak up here so when one falls down, we get to it. Here's my tomorrow evening project. This is about 16" dbh which is about as large as they get up here.

Its a good thing I have to work or I would be packin' the truck and picking my dad up on the way. That is a monster. Biggest fish I've caught was a 38" pike up in canada a few years ago.
