Looks great, but what is this “a little garlic”?!? You measure garlic with your heart!!

I drove FL-> MI for my Polaris, but I have family in MI so it was dual purpose. I’d love to make a long paddlin’ road trip out of a canoe purchase, but dance competition season just concluded in June and we just got back from my sister’s wedding in MI last week, so are licking our financial...

Better out than in, I always say…

I’ll buy it if you deliver it!

Traditional archery is the same. Honestly it seems anything that takes effort and/or skill is fading. It’s easy to sit at home and virtue signal about social issues, but to protect things of enduring beauty and relevance takes actual work. How often do the screeching harpies go pull tires and...

I guess if I weren’t sure what I wanted or where I’d use contact cement. G-flex seems to be a go-to solution for more permanent outfitting.

If you’re lucky, you just lost it! 🤞

Mmm might have worked. Ah well, someone got a nice one.

Oh man that’s a looker. Tell me it wasn’t 62/63 or so…

Down in S FL they have something called “cats claw”. A nasty piece of work, large durable shrubs with 3/4”-1” long recurved spines. You can’t push through it, and tugging just buries the spines deeper. It’s a hack and burn situation.

I feel your pain. I know there are good boats scattered through Florida, but I sure never see any of them. I only see kayaks on the water, unless someone rents a canoe from the two rental places at the head of the Wacissa River.

That gen1 4Runner is awesome!

Well that ‘cause they complained about the oaks!

He forgot to fold up the seat? 🤷‍♂️

That’s what I’d do too on a solid wood paddle; the Clement tip has two transverse lams and I’m pretty sure the whole thing contains a sheet of glass in the middle, then where the blade transitions to shaft there’s a dovetail joint so I thought it best to seal it better. That and I didn’t want to...

Astounding.

Bruce says to mix up a batch of 85% BLO with 15% paint thinner or varsol. Ace had BLO and paint thinner, so that’s what I got. It has worked just fine on my cherry BS ottertail and on my reshaped Clement. On the Clement I used varnish on the blade and oiled the shaft and grip. The oil finish...

Wow, I didn’t know they got so big. I neglected a favorite food bearing tree! A neighbor in the FL Keys had avocado trees and we enjoyed the benefits immensely.

Thank goodness for small miracles.

Down here the water management districts seem to think the only tree that ever grew here was the long leaf pine. They plant them to the exclusion of everything else.
