Probably hard to find a chopper that is not water bombing that big fire in Canada. I have not heard anything about how they are coming in that battle lately.

BUMP BUMP BUMP!!! Withdrawal is setting in big time down here!!! How's the cabin porn coming??

Drifter_016 · « **Reply #92 on:** May 29, 2016, 08:38 PM »

No porn yet.
Ice just went out and it was blowin' like mad this weekend.
Hopin' to get out and get the dock in next weekend.
Got vacation coming up next month though.

OK... Good luck!!

Finally made it back to the lake.
Had to do a little work on the truck and boat yesterday.
Put a little more bling on the Merc.

Got the new dock section framing done and the dock installed.
Will install the decking next weekend.
The good news is the lake is up about 2 feet from last fall.
Last years shoreline dock mounts are now under a foot of water.
Tons of water under the dock now with it 16 feet further out.
There's close to 7 feet at the end of the dock and it is chest deep at the back end.

ICE WANDERER · « **Reply #107 on:** Jun 12, 2016, 04:30 AM »

Look harder OS, it's there the water reflection makes it difficult to see it! Nice job on the decking Drifter!

When I was down in Ontario at Christmas I had my prop shop down there do some tweaking on it to enhance the performance but we went too far. Have to do some more tweaking on it.

Luckily I have 4 props.

Monday evening @ 5PM MT my vacation @ the cabin begins.
Got 48 days off to work on the cabin, drink rum and do some fishin'!!!!
Doesn't look like I'm getting out this weekend though as they're calling for high winds out of the North both days. $:-\$

The vacation and the work has started.
Due to unfinished stuff @ home I was a day and a half late setting off to the cabin.
All was not lost though as Mr B told me the launch and parking area was a gong show on Tuesday due to the Aboriginal Day holiday. The lot was full and they were even having to park on the road!!
Wednesday though all was peaceful at the ramp with only 4 vehicles in the lot when I got there at lunch.

Got a couple of my windows installed.
The view out of my bedroom doesn't suck.

Been working on skitter proofing the eves and even threw up some rafter vents.
