[Shari]

Shari- that's really cool! It's ok if someone's in there twice as long as they're damn good looking.

Thanks for saying BK! Some day I hope to make my living playing with just mud and fire myself

Heh heh! I didn't think anyone would notice!

Oh no! More pictures! I might have to enlarge my original canvas!

Heading down to the lake with my paddling buddy.

 

[oldspark]

Most of you guys look so young, oh wait a minute I think that means I am old.

 

[SolarAndWood]

Don't be deceived oldspark, my paddling buddy is in kindergarten now.

Since there are no photos of me (I controll the camera, you see!) here's the nearest photo we have of us working with wood.

Hubby, using a modified medical Hoyer lift - our version of a hydraulic lift for our splitter.

:lol: definitely not posting another pic in case it shatters that myth


I wonder if you know my brother, or more likely, my brother's car. There can't be that many MOPAR junkies in RI.

Who is he and what does he drive? I've got lots of MOPAR friends so if I don't kow him, somone will.

Ya, "mini-me" is in the 1st grade now. 60 pounder.
Hey, nobody said you had to throw up a recent pic.

 

[rowerwet]

me at work getting ready to fly off to Rochester, NY to fix an airplane that had its engine shut down uncommanded, it's a single so that is a BIG issue, just needed a new fuel control.


the other is my wife and I at Bearskin Neck, Rockport, MA celebrating our birthdays, she is 6 months pregnant there...

 

[Backwoods Savage]

OK. A couple pics. A couple others have already been posted on this forum.

I'm headed up to RI this summer. We should have a southern New England gathering.

 

[BrotherBart]

The last pic of me that I know of was ten years ago. And those ten years have not been kind to me. :red:

 

[Flatbedford]

Hey, nobody said you had to throw up a recent pic.

About 35 years ago.

 

[VCBurner]

Here we are! My beautiful wife is the first pic and the second is at Salisbury Beach Campground, boys and I are off to the beach!! The third is me and my little guy in Yarmouth, MA @ Smuggler's Beach.

Cool thread, I love seeing the fellow burners!!

After so many hours spent here over the past two seasons it's nice to put a face to the words.

 

[Defiant]

Let me see what happens

 

[Mcbride]

My house.
Could not find a photo of me, but will take one this weekend and put it on this computer.

Thanks for playing along Kathleen. I don't know your brother but I'm heading out to all I can eat Chinese buffet with the MOPAR gang tonight and I'll ask around about a Scott with a yellow Challenger convertible.

A gathering would be sweet. There a quite a few members from MA and Conn. and even a couple more from RI. Anyone else interested? Post up and we'll make it happen.

Much like your regional car shows and Charger.com, I belong to several fishing sites that have get togethers "rodeo's" where people camp and fish. It's a great time. It's good to put a face and shake the hand of guys you've been on the forum with.

I was thinking for hearth.com, it would be interesting to have a get together to do some cutting and splitting. I know there's a ton of guys in Northern NJ, pocono's, and Hudson area of NY..

Who pays when someone gets hurt?
:cheese:

Actually, there is a little history of some very small Hearth.com meetups......buy, hey, anything more than one is an official party......

I always thought that a neat meetup would be at the Vermont Casting foundry for a tour........they previously offered that as something they were open to.

The only real semi-official get together was a fried turkey meeting at Gooses house - not so well attended, probably because in mid-summer everyone usually has something better to do.
We've also had some small meetups at various equipment shows - which are also located in the right places.....usually the ones put on by Northern Logger.

(not exactly close by this year - it's been in VT and elsewhere).

A few of us met at the Woodstock Soapstone plant in Sept of this year - they had a little party there. That is on the VT/NH border.

One persons backyard, it seems, is 8 hours away from anothers!

I was supposed to go to Goose's last year for his remodeling build off after he came home, but was unable to make it. I think the VC plant trip sounds excellent, with a cook-out to boot. I would like a reason to drag the wife and kids out to meet all the woodies. I would have liked visiting the Woodstock plant, but I was working a ton of overtime at a new UMASS Worcester job and had no time for online activities.

Count me in guys if you decide to organize something, great idea Al!

Thanks for playing along Brother Bart. You look like some famous actor. The name escapes me. Now we just need Browningbar....
