Thanks Kurt. I told Scott the other day that I was back working on cabinet doors, thumb wrapped and all. He asked if the doors were that important. I replied heck yeah, that I wouldn't miss the maiden voyage /shiveree just because of some silly little thing like missing a digit! :roll:
Anyway, doing quite better - doesn't hurt near as much. Surgeon might decide Monday if any more "work" is needed. But it will have to wait until after the 19th if needed. 8)

Jarred :)


Not what you would call deals but I was able to find some bits and pieces I couldn't find elsewhere. For new stuff there is RV Surplus in Elkhart and there is a new/used salvage place between White Pigion & Sturgis MI on Rte. 12.

The Deepest spot in Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes is 1,333 feet or about 222 fathoms. This profound depth could easily contain the entire 1,250' Empire State Building, even with a 50-foot-tall King Kong perched atop.

:thinking: Discovered something sites 96,98 and 99 the 3 booked at the bottom of the map show booked when you try and register a popup but when you register a tent they show available. So I don't think there really booked I think the will only hold tent sized.
That means there's only 1 site that's a mystery camper the site between Don and Rob.
:twisted: Oh they'll be converts for sure with that many tears around them :lol:

Hey Scott you can show vic and I out in the suburbs #93.
She has been after me since Sunday's arrival home
to get us reserved for May.
Got my reservation 1/22 (Today)

Have a co-worker who actually introduced me to teardrops
He has built an explorer type tent trailer on a 40x48 hf
trailer. I am trying to talk him and his into reserving with
all of us.

Rap, save a little sip (or two) for me too. I didn't have any last week since I needed to drive home. I could have used it though if it warmed me up. ( was chillin' big time.)

I wonder what happens when you sip it at 75 degrees? :thinking:

I beat on a box and juggle flaming torches, at the same time if someone has a fire extinguisher.
