MANDATORY: Signing the camp “Death & Dismemberment Liability Release Waiver” before hurling hatchets at the new target range // be safe // : @sashaborzoi
Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be. Abraham LincolnWe have an “Abe Room” at camp- when we first got this place, sifting through years of junk- we found several random Lincoln souvenirs… so we’ve decided to continue the collection. This painting hangs in that room (my mom did it when she was 16, we found it in my g’mas attic after 50+ years)self portrait by @reallykindofamazing
IT FINALLY ARRIVED. — our new custom designed 24 foot tipi (to replace this old one). Thankfully, the new one is mold resistant / water resistant / fade resistant. Gonna erect it as soon as the ice thaws – it’s new home will be overlooking the lake on site no.2 // now the fun part starts- decking out the interior- this time, we are going for a scandi / modern meets camp vibe. (Ideas welcome, we have no idea where to start.)
Thanks to our friends at @ShinolaAudio, Camp just got an upgrade on the house sound- the new Runwell Turntable is insane! The lodge has never sounded so good (sorry, Wurlitzer… we still love you too- but there’s a new girl in town). // #BestSound #BuiltInAmerica
TB 2015: TRADITION: taking a ride with Dad.My brother and I took our Dad’s ’58 Apache out for a spin yesterday. Dad found it in a rusted pile abandoned in a field while ranching in Wyoming. And then resurrected it ground-up…to this. I was still in college at the time and couldn’t fully appreciate what a mechanical wizard he was. (My brother Sam grew up to be a carbon copy.) #MissYouDad
GARAGE TIME CAPSULE find :: The old lady bought it new in 1976 (& only drove it to & from the country club 2 miles from her front door) then parked it in her garage in 1982- where it has sat since, perfectly pickled. Ours is similar to the one pictured but an XJ6C /// To this day my parents havent ever had a new car. My dad was a mechanic & would say that new cars are a waste of money (even though we knew his real reason was that we just couldn’t afford one) — But I think Dad would have like this one (especially since we got it for the equivalent of a nice bike)She just needed a good spit-shine (& unfortunately an entirely new transmission, tires & brakes). So now were stocking up on 8-tracks for the crusty old in-dash player. Hearing Kenny & Dolly on those scratchy speakers takes me back to when I was Charlies age – although she prefers Disco Fever. / david and I have still have never had a new car- not sure we ever want one #SaveTheOldOnes
