I'm back from my Minnesota Road Trip / Off Lake Rd.(north of Emo, Ontario) Deer Hunt.
While in Minnesota, I spent a few hours in Minneapolis trying to chase down a ham (Yes. A very par-tic-u-lar ham)and a cheap carton of American Spirit Menthol smokes and didn't have any time to find and photograph the pieces that have been lost to posterity, through: legitimate sales, gifting, theft, dodgy "west-bank installment plan" deals, loans, etcetera. That'll have to wait for another trip.
I'll post more pics of the trip, later.
I did, however, manage to reconnect with my buddy, Tosh (who has finally returned from the big apple)and the boys at Anurag Art; Bill and Zach. I got a bunch of photos from Bill and will be scanning them for later posting at the pages that I've put together for them:

I will post a series of photos of Bill feeding the bronze furnace. It was the morning that Tosh and I left for deer camp; so we missed the bronze pour later that day, but I will be posting some scans of some bronze-pour stuff, later.
I'll also post some deer-hunt-pic-type-stuff at:

The greatestest business name on Highway 53, between Virgina and International Falls.
Before Tosh and I left town for deer camp, we stopped off for ammo and stuff. Found this Pony Express mural on the side of the gun shop;

Tosh and I sighted-in the rifles before taking off. We managed to avoid shooting any cows at the farm.

That's a relatively new sign.
Yep. Sure got my attention.
:)
you know, in my official art collection bunker in the barn at my old mans compound in northern mn i have a couple of signed and certified eck pieces, one i found before i bailed on the wbsa, a couple more i ganked from the little red house while helping repair the amazing things you did to the place. i never seen holes made by a chairleg in a floor before...
Will, you sneaky minx... lurkin' out in the Finnish weeds.
:)
actually, minks are an invasive species here in finland, overwwhelming the hilleri (mustela putorius), which looks almost like a mink but its got more white on its chin as far as i can tell. whitetail deer were introduced in the form of one buck and four does from mn now they are like rats in the south of the country. even the canadians have contributed, the native european beaver (castor fiber) has mostly been replaced by the canadian beaver (castor canadensis). my favorite invader in finland is from the east, the super creepy raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides). they eat anything, reproduce more than rabbits (also non-native here, hares are the native species), and may have provided the bridge to humans for sars in chinese cuisine.
your biology lesson for the day is now officially done.
