Cinco De Mayo Loonacy at the Camp


The surest sign of spring...a burst pipe.
In honor of one of our members who could not attend.

And they laughed when I insisted that railing be detachable.

A whole lot easier than hauling 49 sheets of 1/2 inch drywall up the stairs
Demonstration of a technique from The Loonatic Guide to Construction Safety.

I want you to look just like me...


The manufacturer must have changed this pink stuff.  There was very limited itching.
Bud Light-Can-Man demonstrates another technique from the Guide.

"Fluff it, don't stuff it!"

A rare sighting of a Free-range Woodbutcher.

As usual, in the dark.

Amazing progress.

Continued amazement.

A guest appearance by one of our esteemed neighbors.

Looking across the water and through the trees.

Loons are often social animals.

And I bring you....FIRE !!!!

Spoke some evil, saw some evil, heard some evil.

Sparkling conversation!
Moon above and below the island.

  1. .... yo, Randy : very good ! this photo exposition covers all the ambience of the Adirondax .... i'm sincerely glad u and your free-range-woodbutcher co-horts hsve stumbled upon the Land( & lakes)-of-the-Loon ... wish there was audio ... so we could hear the loons .... 23 years ago Joanne Fioravanti loaned me a cassette tape full of mood-enhancing sounds : loon wailing ... a half-hour of just loons ... so it looks like there's a call of the wild coursing -through the veins / soul / minds of all us Greece suburbanite-natives ... by the way, it's futile to attempt to insert / construct / import civilazation to the wild-forever Adirondax .... Nature WILL prevail, no matter how much dry-wall u import ... it's best to let the Loons & the moon have their domain ; )

    1. The price of wild places is eternal vigilance.
