    1st Time for New Seats

    Making little progress. I have some sawmill cut cherry wood in my basement, and it is a little lighter, in weight, then the oak I used for the seats. I first made a template from some scrap wood. Using masking tape and cardboard, I cut and altered the scrap piece so it would fit nicely to the...

    1st Time for New Seats

    Yes I do have the seats like that and the dolly wheels. I use them once in awhile, but I thought about making some back rests that look like these, or similar. The dolly wheels are sure handy instead of carry the canoe. I found a place where I can leisurely spend 4 or 5 hours on the river, and...

    Papa got new shoes

    The hiking shoes I purchased last year have been a little snug. They appeared to fit good when I purchased them, and they have served me well. The couple of past times hiking this spring they have become a little uncomfortable, maybe the fur on my feet has thickened or something, so I began...

    Necessities

    I always take 50 feet of the paracord. It packs small and always gets used in some way. I keep several lengths of rope, and a couple of rachet straps in my truck all the time. I've been using the same pieces of rope, for tieing my canoe down, for the past ten years. I singed the ends and learned...

    "Wanna" see YOUR magnificent trails...

    It's amazing what is in your own backyard. The eagle was very unexpected. We almost rode past with out seeing it. I like taking and sharing pictures. I hope to be going back to Grandfather Mountain in a couple of weeks. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    "Wanna" see YOUR magnificent trails...

    Sorry if pictures are rotated, this cell phone or program is a bit wanky. The trail starts near a small streams that becomes a river by the time you get back to town. There are all kinds of pretty areas to stop. The last picture is of an eagle sitting on a limb beside the river watching us...

    "Wanna" see YOUR magnificent trails...

    We got to the Virginia Creeper trail shuttle at 9 yesterday morning. They drove us to the top of White Top Mtn. and we unloaded our bicycles and started our 18 mile ride. This really isn't a physical endurance thing because it is mostly down hill all the way, but it is a relaxing enjoyable ride...

    "Wanna" see YOUR magnificent trails...

    I took tonight off from work, so we could get good night's sleep and leave early morning. Bicycles loaded and ready to go. I'll have more, and real pictures tomorrow night. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    "Wanna" see YOUR magnificent trails...

    The Virginia Creeper trail, this used to be a train line into the Virginia mountains for goods, passengers, timber and such things. They removed the tracks and it is now a pleasant trail from the top of the mountains to Abingdon Va. There are 47 trestles and bridges to cross. We will be riding...

    Pictures red X

    So, your a Harley guy? My father in law was a true Harley enthusiast. He purchased a brand new Road King in 95 for his retirement present. He put 95,000miles on it before he passed away in 2001. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Shelter for Winter Camping

    As long as it stayed below freezing out side, It will last for days or maybe longer. The walls do get a little thinner over time because of the warmer temperature inside, and there should be a couple of small ventilation holes cut into it from the top to allow the carbon dioxide to escape and...

    Canoe seat upgrade

    I enjoyed making the seats. White ash or hickory would've been better, but I didn't have any. I think the main thing to do is get your wood 1 1/4 thick and 1 3/4 or 2 inches wide. I got my plastic artificial cane from HH Gregg. It was a 1,000 foot roll and 12 of the pegs and edge binder for...
