The adventures of Number 4

Post by daytime dave » Sun Oct 30, 2016 8:12 am

I have often enjoyed threads that chronicle something. Since I really like my Buck 112 that I received from my son for my birthday, I thought I would like to photograph it occasionally as we go places together.

To start off, I climbed Panther Mountain Friday. I liked this moss covered rock as a background. Here is the first of hopefully many #4 adventures.




(I still have to find out why only half my picture is saved when saving to the computer from Iphoto in Icloud)

Fortunately, it was the business half of the picture that was saved. That's a very cool knife, Dave. Thanks for the stories.

#4 went with us on a nice little adventure over the weekend. We went to the Southern Adirondacks, to a cool place called Friend's Lake Inn. It is a bit more than what I am used to, but it was nice for sure.

http://www.friendslake.com/

We stayed in the Ledge Stone Room. It was a beautiful as the website photographs. It was a beautiful suite. A jacuzzi tub and steam shower. Wow. A great seating area, nice real fireplace, other seating outside on a little balcony. It was really nice. Sheets so soft they sell them in the small gift shop.

After dinner in the dining room, we all settled down to relax after a wonderful meal. #4 wanted to check it all out, and did. Then he and I sat down for a couple of scotch and waters. A really nice adventure!

Then off to enjoy a nice drink. (CT, notice the Stetson Sturgis got in on the action too!)

It is nothing I could normally afford or want to do, but it was a very nice experience. The staff were all locals who were the best at what they did that I had ever met. They seemed to really care. #4 liked it too.

Dave,

The knife looks good in your pictures. Thank you.

I am glad that you got to enjoy yourself with a mini vacation!

Don't work yourself to death since you came out of retirement.

Blessings to you and yours.
