This canvas mushroom bag my wife got me for my mushroom forays, but it should be handy for grocery shopping to... appalachiantrailcafe.net/index…d5e817f952ef83d9639a28e88 and this metal enameled bird cup... appalachiantrailcafe.net/index…d5e817f952ef83d9639a28e88 Only problem with the bird cup is that it is for European birds. So it is not going to up my birding game unless I travel to Europe. Come to think of it, not a bad…

Here's wishing each and every one of us a healthy and happy 2021. May the coming year be better than the one going out !

Quote from max.patch: “Interesting debate about how to best distribute the Covid vaccine. Right now the Govt expects to have 40 million doses of vaccine by the end of the year. They plan on vaccinating 20 million people, and holding onto the remaining 20 million doses and giving them to the same people in a month. But a Pfizer Board Member says to vaccinate 35 million people immediately, and assume that enough vaccine will be made to give to these people in a month. He says in makes sense to get…

Quote from Traffic Jam: “ ...............I wish I had the drive and brains to make it a business but don’t. I also think it would take the joy out of bread baking so I’ll stick with giving it away. ” Smart lady.

I don't have a clue as I've never been south of Harper's Ferry, on the trail. I guess I could throw a dart at a map of the trail and guess where ever the dart lands. Oh wait., I don't have any darts.

Astro and Jimmyjam have good suggestions !

Quote from IMScotty: “Here in Boston the plan is for pouring rain and wind gusts up to 65 mph on Christmas morning. They are expecting plenty of power outages from this. I do pity the socially isolated elderly sitting home alone this Christmas. ” Ditto to all IMScotty said above

the cafe is running at full speed..........

Quote from Traffic Jam: “I haven’t done any DIY lately, at least nothing related to hiking, but I’m about to start a repair job on my hiking pole, does that count? Wish me luck. ” Sure it counts as long as you DIY.

Loosing weight is my resolution. I've gained about 12-13 pounds since the summer and they've got to go.

I want to wish a happy and healthy and blessed Christmas to those who celebrate the holiday.

Astro, sorry to hear about your loss.

I think you just started the DIY section.

I bet there's all sorts of things buried in the covid relief bill that we're not being told about.

Karhy and I have been to Newport. The "cottages" are amazing are amazing. Did you find the part of town where the houses are from the 1600s ?

Quote from IMScotty: “Opening the Cafe web site has been painfully slow for me today. Other sites seem fine. Have the Russians hacked our little operation here too? ” been slow for me too, but worth the wait !

I don't know anything about JPD other than she's an ultra endurance athlete who did a fkt attempt on the AT so I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
