Jack Davidsons shop originally was in Sanger Ca. We'd pass by the old Sanger shop every year on the way up to camp at Huntington lake 1960s 1970s

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

After driving my C20 for a few days hauling stuff from here to there, and then checking the transmission fluid, I found my missing 1/2" ratchet!

Yeah, and it's pointing to the a/c compressor you need to put a belt on and get to using. It's hot!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Too funny. It’s amazing how often that part or tool goes cling clang but doesn’t make it to the floor.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Spark plugs? How about the socket? I was putting new plugs in my '69 Camaro many years ago and dropped the socket. There was a hole in the subframe just big enough for the socket to fall into. It was still there when I sold the car. No way was I getting that bugger out.

In 1994 we camped for one night at Sebago Lake State Park on a 3 week vacation that took us from Wisconsin to Nova Scotia. The picture below showing how we traveled was taken on the way home at a Michigan state park on Lake Superior.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Just like trucks it’s always better to have more than one . The SS table I picked up on Craigslist got two for 150 . Use one for outside work and the other is the deer butchering table

Tim is right this stove takes smaller wood . When I bought it as the old stove burnt out I had to cut all the wood I had stacked . Made a jig to cut multiple pieces .

I always try to not make any foot prints in the snow here. I tramp down what paths I need to take to function and stay on those. When I as a kid I'd get mad when kids would 'ruin' the snow . Kind of like a ski slope, stay on the marked trails! (which I was not always so good about)
