And I wasn't going to comment, though I was thinking of correcting
herring on his spelling of the placename. There's no 'h'. If he weren't
such a **** of a human being, I'd consider letting him park his trailer
on our spit of land next to the Shenandoah. It's got 'lectricity; a fire
pit; a masonry storage building (with a nice double bed, refrigerator
and small stove); an actual, union-built brick outdoor grill, and a
canoe. The river is up, sparkling and cold, and the smallies, I hear,
are biting.

I have several friends with land out there, Loogy. Several years ago, we
bought the piece on which stumpy used to sit...remember stumpy? Well,
there's a small cabin and drain field there now...stumpy was bulldozed
out and...sadly...burned up. Even in death, though, stumpy was smarter
than you are.

You guys should really get together for a beer with Obama. I bet you
will find the others are really pretty nice guys.

BTW are you sure these are "union built" and not CCC camp built?
A lot of those Blue Ridge/Smoky mountain things are depression era
public works projects. That is particularly true if this is native
stone work. A ride down the Blue Ridge trail is a time capsule back to
the days when there were real masons, not just guys slapping block to
the line. (although that is a skill in itself if you can go fast with
a good result)



I've met herring. He's a racist asshole. His wife, though, was very nice.

I was referring to *our* union-built outdoor grill, not a CCC project
grill. It was built by a friend of mine, who happens to be an active
bricklayer who works only for contractors who are signatory to the union
contract. He uses our cabin and shed, and in addition to helping me
build the shed, built the outdoor grill for all of us one weekend last
year. It's just a simple little outdoor grill.

I've been trying to get him to build a brick outhouse (just for show -
we have plumbing now), but so far...no go, so to speak.

Oh...there are plenty of "real" masons around today.

He did say "our". What's interesting is that he gets to share a double
bed with his friends when he goes out there shooting and canoing with
them. How gay can that be?

We did. Nice little campground by Stoney Creek, with a great Italian restaurant,
Sal's, just a few minutes walk to downtown.

There were eight rigs there from our group of eleven, so there was just the
right amount of people to have a good get-together around a campfire. This is
where the group has it's first campout every spring.
