Todays finds... a bear of a time...
« on: September 02, 2012, 06:35:47 pm »
Thought I would share some of today's finds since there's been so much salmon talk around here lately. I hadn't been out in a couple of weeks and I had a bear of a time! He almost didn't fit in the front seat and there's more stuff in the back!

Thanks!
Kevin

If you just Bear with me,this,ll take a little Time, :D....i, should have the neighbour of that old racket,...i did have two, but lost one 2 years ago, it came off....i was using them as snowshoes, as we were snowed in,..the Worse winter in years,...anyhow, i had to dig my car out, and for the life of me i could,nt get a grip,...my tootsies were all over the place...so i came up with the bright idea of using some old tennis rackets...i tied them on to my boots then stuck my feet in,..they worked a treat....then one came off,...and i could,nt find it....and even after the snow had thawed which was 3 weeks later...i never did find it...i think somebody must have found it....and thought, wow, an old tennis racket..just what i need...
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

mart, no I don't want a bigger truck, I'm trying to down size what I have! That's why I haven't been in a couple of weeks, I always find something then I must have it!  :D

If you think about the scale, that is one HUGE salmon!

Glad you found some fun stuff, Kevin M.

Kevin M, thanks, it also eludes me why someone would carve this huge wood bear and fish and not finish it up with carving the eyes and mouth in on the fish's head. Kind of makes me think that there was something where the fish's head is, perhaps an old sticker or something used to promote something that has worn or come off.
