Looks like a great spot to spend some time

Was thinking about it, and I've been going camping there for 30 years now. May 92 was my first trip.

Considering buying some land in the Hamlet of Cadomin. Would be a great place to set up a small cabin or something. 

[cobraman]

Ahh, my dream is to have a nice cabin on a wooded lot by a lake. Will I ever get there ? Highly doubtful I'm afraid.

I've been to a few concerts this summer, first batch since March 2020...went to my first outdoor-ish one in 3 years, to a performance of Beethoven's 4th and 5th symphonies by the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra at the beautiful Blossom Music Center Amphitheatre a few miles from home last night.  Beautiful place w/ great acoustics.  Great evening, a bit warm and humid but cooled as the evening went on.

 

 

Thats a cool looking building, do you know what the roof is? it has a slightly natural material look to it

I’m not sure of the outside material, the inside is cedar.  It’s known for its great acoustics.  I’ve seen rock bands (Rush, The Who) and classical music with the Cleveland Orchestra there, great venue in a wooded, hilly area.

Nice collection! I haven't ridden in years but have been thinking about getting another bike to mess around with. Seeing your photo just adds fuel to the fire....

It's model rated but I finally got two vintage car models in the mail just a short time ago and I've been after both for a while. They're a Johan 1968 Chrysler 300 minus the tires and an AMT 1972 GMC Stepside pickup. Both are well covered in dust but will get a bath soon. A visit to my tire bin will yield new shoes for the Chrysler.

 

My collection is now complete.

Both are builds that I on E Bay and price wise, they were surprisingly reasonable.

You have a point. With my personal debt just about paid off, I have some cash to burn and it won't be long before the buying bug bites me again.

If I had a dollar for every time I thought that...I could buy a few more models.

What pleased me recently is enjoying family. Our great-granddaughter turned 1 last Friday. What a blessing!! We have 5 grandkids. God is good !!!

[John M.]

Friday was the last day for the summer day camp that my company has a contract with and I've been driving around in my school bus for the last couple of months. I'm on vacay all next week and then school starts a week from Monday. Until then, I'll be kicking back while my school bus will be in the shop for some much maintenance.

Set up a table of kits to sell off at the CKM show in Clemmons NC Saturday. Shared the table with FatBrian and while he bought as much as he sold, I restrained myself and came home with a few more dollars than I left with. Had a great time talking to folks, got to meet Driptroit71 (Brian) and he was kind enough to buy some of my stuff I was selling.

Same here. I’d love to get a cabin up in Racquette Lake in some quiet cove in the Adirondacks with a little private dock. Nothing like the idea of waking up to the sounds of loons calling in the mist whilst drinking coffee in the early morning hours. That’s sounds so peaceful. 

[NYLIBUD]

Went to a great car show today,a bit hot,but i took first place in class.Oh yea.??

[NYLIBUD]

So to my surprise,I won a radio contest this morning.The prize were two tickets to see Blondie at a local small arena.Now even though I always liked Blondie,and thought she was pretty hot,even today.??I’m going to give the tickets to my friend and his girlfriend.I answered a question asking what most people have stored somewhere in there house(junk drawers),but don’t use anymore.The answer was old cell phones.The show is Sept 1st.I  just wish the prize was money,but oh well..???‍♂️
