    Default Weekend Agenda - Volunteers?

    This is what's on the agenda this weekend...



    And the last of the pilings for foundation :



    I'm building a 16 x 24 drive-through shop at the cabin, with a couple of bedrooms & storage upstairs.

    We've got 4 inboard boats lined up to haul all this up the river this weekend, now I just need bodies to help construct!

    Any volunteers? I'll buy the beer & feed you.


    On a side note, I think my wife will be very pleased to get her yard back here at home... got trailers, lumber and boats everywhere. If this stuff doesn't disappear from around here soon, I fear my life may be in danger....

    I don't see no BBQ grill. But that looks like more my style than watering a vegetable garden and feeding cats n dogs.

    And I DO have cold weather clothing, bubba. To include the snow boots good for 50 below.

    How much you paying? I sell cheap. Steak and shrimp on the barbie and a cold beer ...

    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Join the club. I could wire that thing up in a heartbeat. And if he's off the grid, I know how to wire to a generator. Little camping. Little BBQ, Some Coronas. Walking around in the dirt.

    I'd love to help. It's even better when you're with friends instead of employees. I'd have a blast. So would those Alaskans making fun of me for being dressed like Nanook of the North during what they call summer.

    Gee Rick, with my shoulder I'm afraid that I'll just have to sit with Sharon and talk and , of course! I'd love to ride in the boat though, and watch you work!

    Y'all ain't got no cows? I hate fish.

    And since I might end up with my brother in Seattle, be careful what you wish for. I know where Oregon is. You turn right on I-5.

    Ever heard of deer, elk, or in the case of Alaska - moose?

    I-5 runs right through the Willamette Valley - turning right unless you cannot read a map!

    Touch that food while I'm cooking and I will slap you on the wrist with my spatula. And then kick your ass.

    I'll not touch it, but help. Spatula is O.K. Kick my ass? Please...say something different! Ain't gonna happen!

    I wouldn't let you in a tent with her you old coot. We'd never get any sleep.

    Looks like the REAL battle's going to over who gets to cook.
