Lunch and the afternoon.
Went out or lunch today and then to our new Menard's. Wow! That place is huge!
It's got to be as big as Home Depot.
Lunch was a really good corned beef hash and two eggs over easy.
Came back home and worked in the shop on a cabinet I'm building. Got wood filler done
on one door and the other is glued up. I'm making it out of cherry to match the other
furniture in our motorhome. I found out it's really hard to stain pine to match cherry.

Re: Lunch and the afternoon.
I should also add it's a beautiful day here in the land of ten thousand taxes.
A light breeze, bright sunshine, and sixty degrees.
I opened the pole barn to let it warm up in there and used compressed air to
blast all the dust out of the work shop. The snow is almost gone, almost.
We have a chance of more snow Sunday night into Monday.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Lunch and the afternoon.
Just curious, not exactly sure where it is, only been there once.
A good friend owns it, I've been up to his cabin a couple times it's in Pine county.
On some big lake can't remember the name at the moment.
We would go over to Wings North for sporting clays and some pheasant hunting.

Re: Lunch and the afternoon.
I think the big lake you refer to is Mille Lacs. It's 14 miles wide at the widest and 17 miles north to south.
Have fished it many times but under a treaty one of our stalwart politicians negotiated, the Indians are
allowed to net walleyes, while no one else can. Supposed to be subsistence only, but don't believe that.
It used to be a great lake to fish, now we call it the "Dead Sea".

Re: Lunch and the afternoon.
I remember a Stinson automotive just east of the Brooklyn park area, I think it was between 2 golf courses. But it’s been a while.

Well, ask and you shall receive. I'm not an expert woodworker, I just enjoy doing it.
