    Had a good time hangin' wit the nortwoods gang...

    The weather left a lot to be desired, mostly cloudy & rainy. But the company made up for it!

    Had some fume issues (see "breather" thread) which curtailed some wheeling/socializing activities for TLMP & me...

    All in all, a pretty good weekend, with no carnage to speak of...unless we mention Greggs exhaust tip......

    Sorry I didn't get to see you before we left, Kenny & Big Swede, we hunted down Big Jim & Brother Mike, then beat feet outta town, JUST getting home in time for me to go... (I had to work @ midnight)

    I'll post the best pics in a day or two.

    You must have left early, I got up before 8 and you were gone (that's early for me on a Sunday...). Heck, I was home before noon.

    It was fun to see everybody.

    Yah, I wandered by your room about 0645 but saw no lights or signs of activity. Went over to the Bonsai Tea downtown for some coffee, then called Jim & Mike, and woke them up.
    Had some brefast while they got themselves toghther, then hit the road.

    Here are some pics...

    I'm glad they repaired the "Big Fish"...it was looking pretty sad last year.

    Thanks for the pics...see if you can get Jim's too, I know he was taking some. I, as usual, forgot my camera.

    Yah, the big fish is looking much improved from last year. While we were there, a lady stopped to take some pics. She informed me that it was still a WIP(notice it has no eyes), & that she had been taking pics of the progress.
    Also, she told me that it's on one of the postcards in the credits of Nat Lamps "Vacation"...

    Last year...




    This year...



    Here's a short article...http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...%3Den%26sa%3DG

    Google "big fish supper club" for more.

    Yes it is! I have noticed that...I think Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox from Bemidji might be in there too.
