You're doing it right Tod!

Way to go Tod. Now you have time to work on that great dog blind.

I just use an 8 foot push pole and I give about 8 to 10 foot of slack on the rope bridle. As the tide recedes the boat usually follows the tide line as long as there is ample water underneath. This is what I do also, keep it simple. As far as I'm concerned the less stuff in the boat the better...

Don't tell me you are surprised

I think I've seen these in the past somewhere is some catalog. But you are a pretty handy guy, and if you built yourself a lightweight aluminum frame that folded up, Diane could make you the outside and you would have something nice that will last until you aren't using it. I would think about a...

This is another really great looking boat. I wish I was a woodworker like you guys, but I so enjoy seeing what everyone is doing and learning about the hiostory and lineage of these boats, where they are from, who built them, who owned them. I envision the document residing somewhere in a...

Looks great John!

I have a fun method of taking the husks off. I step on them and roll them under my feet (wearing a pair of ankle length LL Bean boots) then use rubber gloves to pick up the nuts. Works pretty good and keeps my hands from being dyed for weeks. I like to get at them within a day or two of them...

One of the things I like to do in the fall is gather some black walnuts, clean and dry them, and crack them over the winter to eat. I prefer black walnuts to english walnuts for flavor. They are everywhere in the southern half of NJ, so finding plenty of nice ones is not problem except in a low...

Hey Steve-why don't you explain what the coaming is and means and why it is there, Nancy may not be familiar with that term.

That is so true and might be their best song ever, I still like to listen to it

Nice pa'tridge

I think we should go back to that. Every once in a while, and after the hunting season is over, I'll do a preserve shoot with a friend who is a very well known and accomplished breeder and trainer of Brittany Spaniels in south Jersey. One year I wore a tweed sportcoat and was the hit of the...
