Rice harvesting is in full swing. Only a little short of 2,000 pounds for the first picking. The second and third pickings should be much more.

We used the portable winch to portage the boats from Nechigona to Goose. They will get the Loon Haunt modification.

Ryan is back and we are changing some posts that rotted after 40 years.

The rice crop is looking good and the machine is almost ready to go. We should be picking in the next 4 or 5 days. The little Volkswagen engine started on the second flip.

Refinishing the tables according to Louise. “The tables are 40 years old so I am not going for perfect but the cards will slide.”

Today, we took a trip down south bay to check on the rice. It looks like a chance for a good crop. We will see what the weather does for the next 3-4 weeks. We might get to pick before the end of August.

Louise and Bill have been busy.  Louise is refinishing doors and tables and Bill has built new floor boards for the airplane.

We are planning to do the Loon Haunt modification to the boats at Nechigona so we crossed the portage to take some measurements of the boats to estimate required materials. Quiet place right now.

Very hot today, 95 degrees. We looked forward all day to the cold front that would bring us rain and cooler temperatures. When the front arrived at about 2:30 PM, we ended up with thunderstorms and hail. Fortunately most of the hail was pea size with a few marble size so…

We are at camp. There are no surprises. We brought the dock over from the river today.
