I just spoke with the innkeeper in Traverse City and he feels like between his house proper, the camper and his folks house in Northport that we are all covered for rooms. WS’24 will kick off at the HD Museum in Milwaukee followed by a boat ride across the lake, the slow boat. Just throwing a dart at the second week in July on the calendar. We can mail clothes or other stuff to Chuck’s and I have asked him to procure a smoker and I’ll cook a brisket.

Went for a nice 200 mile ride out to Frostproof Florida and had lunch at the Frostproof BBQ company, the food was outstanding.
So for any of you Florida peeps check out the Frostproof BBQ company.

This sounds excellent Gents. I'm in -
Are you referring to the ferry SS Badger from Manitowoc WI to Ludington MI? I've taken that ferry trip and it's a thrill.

Shutters are painted. It’s gonna take a few hours to dry. (Oil base). Should hold up overnight. (Dew point ) will be reached. I’m kinda nervous about that

Good afternoon all. I was able to get out for some kubbing on the Chief during my lunch break. Working from home is great for that sort of thing.

I did not know one could even get oil based paint for the exterior of a home any longer. I thought it was banned.

That is the ferry Stan. We’ll load the bikes, settle in for a 4 hour tour with beverages and watch the pretty girls display their ***** as they pass by on their boats. Unload the bikes in Ludington, then off to Chuck’s house.

The Badger is.
Coal fired, like a "Harley-Davidson" of the lakes.
