Friday afternoon for us as well. Have we discussed food yet?
Haven't heard anything about food.

Well it is high time to.
We might be able to spare you a croissant.

I tried to get out of work this weekend, but it wasn't happening. I guess I'm a cowboy and I ride for the brand. I've got to be there for my s.s. and aluminum welding skills. I'll catch ya at the next shindig.

Is there anybody doin food for saturday ? Pay per plate is fine by me, better than sardines, dorritos and a hot diet coke
the 3/4" choker was a tad too big to 'stuff' in my trunk (took the car up today) so all I will be bringing is my 14' 1/2" choke and a choke chain along with the 200' cable, etc. I think that sucker is left over from when that area was logged last
There are actually 2 of them but one has a badly spliced loop 'eye' and is not safe to use as is.If you think the park could use the big one I'll haul it down the next time I take my truck up to Cloverdale.
I also found these two monster blocks in the old, burned out winery press building (property was once part of Mazzini Winery) and wonder if they were used along with the chokers...same 3/4" cable.

I'd estimate well over 75# each...didn't try to lift one off the ground but doubt I could anyway.
anyone have a use for these...or, anyone think they might be worth anything as antiques?

With RandyMac, 2dogs, and me there, how will we be able to tell if you're grumpy?
at least you might get a chance...rain on Thus

Frank and I tried to put together food for the last GTG and nobody was interested. We ate lonely meals alone all by ourselves. Without company.
However I can cook. Pretty muchly anything you guys want. How many pounds of sprouts should I bring? Has Frank Boyer checked in yet? He is a BBQ master. I vote for Frank and his famous pulled pork.

I'm still thinking about going. Not sure what BBQ is in the freezer, possibly a brisket. How many people will be there Friday and Saturday?
Just got a nasty looking 361 off of CL that could use some TLC and run time. It had been in a barn for a while and was very rusty. Put in a new plug and clean fuel and it started right up. It came without a chain and I need to get one on it. It blew a 170 psi and that was a total surprise.
Eccentric should have a head count. BBQ sounds good to me.
I prefer a fine cooked gourmet meal but I can eat any crap that fits on a plate. Except pork sausage. Or yams.
No broccoli or brussels sprouts either. Anything else is okay.
