nice find and happy birthday to you

[wagondude]

Score! But you miss out on the fun of the tear-down to clean up of a well used one. I have some of mine cleaned up. I hope to finish it up and put it back together in time to fire it up on my b-day. You got a nice haul with all the extras.

Great find! But now what do you do? Light it or keep it in the box....

[Sonoma ZR2]

Why of course light it 32 years later than it should have been. The only reason I'd not light it is if I can resist the temptation till my birthday next year.

Fire that sucker up and post a pic.

I'll post a pic of it lit up next year. My wife says that it is only fitting for an unfired birthday lantern. To be christened by fire on my birthday.

Good point Sonoma

I now celebrate my birthday at a burn near or somewhat near my birthday so I am now 62 as I went to a burn 3 weeks ago.
