Hey Bobby, good to hear you are still around. How is R A doing, her case getting anywhere?

 

[Welder56]

The boat works great, kept us from getting wet on two different days, I can come n go now as I like, no need to plan around the weather anymore. Wish I did get the roof completed, still about half left to do but need two fine days in a row, still waiting fer dem!!....LOL

Awesome! Glad your making progress Jerry. I wouldn't mind having a boat for shelter either LOL!

 

[pioneerguy600]

Sweet, I spent 3 months on the beach there back in 73, only one rainy day in that entire time.

 

[Welder56]

Yes sir that's a long time here. The beaches are interesting based on the red sand. Found an interesting piece of quartz. Gonna break it open and see if I struck gold LOL

 

[pioneerguy600]

I was working over there that year and we camped out at all the beaches, Brackley and Stanhope were our favorites.

 

[Welder56]

I'll find out what beach I'm at! That's pretty awesome. Something you'd never forget

 

[pioneerguy600]

You on the Gulf side?

 

[Welder56]

I'm on the Gulf side. In Cavendish . Had some oysters today. Not much for raw but on the bbq with some garlic butter..... Man it was good. Got some lobster and steak on the go right now.

You`re in the tourist trap area, try getting out to see the rest of the coast where the sights are more natural than that tourist trap area is.

 

[Welder56]

Ya we wanted to go around but the weather isn't the best. But have a great spot. Right on the water. Kinda outta the trap. We've stayed pretty busy just at the beach which is pretty much private beach.

 

[pioneerguy600]

If you make it down to Stanhope you can walk for a full day and never come to the end of the beach, there is a lighthouse way out there on the horizon, walked out there one night, one heck of a long walk.!

 

[Welder56]

That's a good suggestion!! Thanks jerry! Kids love the beach so I'll check it out

Hi Jerry! We went down our State Senator's this morning, and gave them the story of the holdup. Aide said they're suppose to pay within 2 weeks of the Judge's decision. They're over a Month late! Said they would look into it. We'll see!
Hang up with Social Security too! Been up there in Hanover at the office about every week. Keep getting messages they need this and that. Go up the office and they said they have everything they need. I'm telling yah this Country is getting totally dysfunctional!!!

It`s a game, managers are told to delay every request for as long as possible, make everything as complicated as possible and throw out all the monkey wrenches they can think of. Their best hope/scenario is you will die or get discouraged and move.

I have walked that beach and never seen a soul or even a footprint once I got the first mile behind me, probably covered 12 miles or more each way. All sand down that way stretches from Brackley beach all the way through Stanhope to Tracadie Bay. I used to park at Stanhope parking lot and set out from there, the road leaves the beach there and stays inland a good ways after that.

Haaa, the sun burnt country.
