Live at the 2018 N.E. G2G!

Sorry I'm late to the updates, I'm on vacation and trying to cram a lot in. I really didn't take too many pictures on Saturday, I did more chatting.

First of all, thank you Dawn and Brian for being excellent hosts. Your property is fantastic and peaceful. It was the first time I've heard a whip-poor-will, and it was quite memorable. I have a lot of other folks to thank, but here are some highlights.

Thank you saewoody for bringing Mason along, Nathan had a great time shooting arrows and exploring the woods. I wish we could have stayed to say good bye. They were like peas in a pod and kept mostly out of mischief.

It was a pleasure talking with all the ladies about cooking pizza. I really enjoyed it. I didn't realize they guys cutting and splitting missed out. I made about 1/4 of the pizzas that I could have made. I had so many leftoversions toppings. The meatball sub and black olive pizza never got made. WeldrDave brought some pickled garlic that was sliced up and put on one pizza. I missed a slice of that one.

I took one pic as they were cooking as there were secondaries floating around in there.



I spent a few minutes with MikeInMa and fuelrod comparing antique Peavey's Mike and I brought along.

It's been said many times that these are way too short, and it sure was. I wish I had more time to sit for a few minutes and chat with more of you, but there is so much to see and do.

I could go on and on about the whole GTG, but I want to say if you can make it to one, go if you can. These folks are all top shelf. It was almost like a big family cookout.

Midwinter, thank you for bringing the cast iron pans. They were a huge hit and WeldrDave is like a cast iron encyclopedia. Also one helluva guy.

I had great discussions with NHMountainman, as we are from the same area and we compared how things were several years ago.

I'm sure I will add some more thoughts as I think of them. One of them is thank God the Porto potty had grab bars on the door. That was an adventure in itself. These folks can really make a great bonfire.

 

Wow, a lot of pages to catch up on, and some great pics.

It's wonderful to hear that everyone had a great time, and most importantly made it home safe and sound.

Backwoods Savage I can relate with your trip, didn't check mileage, but from our place to Cedar rapids Iowa is about the same (800+ miles).

I certainly hope to make it to an official FHC G2G one day.

 

I hate to see someone leaning on the rail fall off the deck because the upper rail nails or screws pulled out.
Plus it is very unpleasant to a critical eye.

 

Let's see, Eric VW is the Grammar Nazi..
Guess that makes billb3 the Construction Nazi.

 

Whoooo!! I'm in for that.

Does he know?

 

Awesome !!!.....address being sent....

 

That last picture reminds me of Moses with his staff and the tablet with the Commandments.

 

Was a waiting WS.

Deer bother your gardens?

 

Next year we will make porta party potty shims!
