Here are a shot from the family reunion. My grandparents had 12 kids, when this group gets together tensions flare, food and beverage consumed and a great time had by all. The whole clan spawned from north central Iowa and is currently peppered throughout the United States: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Colorado, California, Oklahoma, Texas, Florida, Washington D.C., New Mexico, Hawaii and Alaska (shoot….it gets hard to keep track)

The Grilling Summit.

Techniques from Florida, California and Minnesota all combined in one place at one time on 7 grills (five shown). My dad and two of his brothers commence the charbroil culinary masterpiece as 70 thick juicy Minnesota raised pork chops are about to be placed on the BarBee.

Here's a picture from one of our annual trips to Lake of the Woods. It's of my late Uncle Francis (front of the boat) and my Uncle Kenny (driving the boat with the hair blowing in the wind) driving back to our cabin after a good day on the water. I took the picture from the back of the boat. It's one of my all-time favorites...

"Best Friends"

Me and the boy. Hopefully I get to fish with him till I'm old and unable to fish. I love the way he's brave to touch the fish, and yet has a cautious hand around my arm (just in case) wink.gif

Quality is poor, took a digital photo of the print itself rather than scan it in.

This is my 10 year old daughter Elise and her 13 year old cousin Jay on our trip to Canada this summer (2005). Elise's goal was to top her biggest walleye of 27.5 inches and she did with this 29.5" walleye. Caught on a slip bobber and a leech in 6 feet of water.

I'll title it "Best Buddies with the best catch"

This is myself (ccarlson) and my 10 year old daughter Elise with a 40", 17 pound northern she caught casting a 1/4 ounce mimic minnow up into the shoreline for smallies during our trip to Canada in June of 2005. It gave her quite a fight but she does very well fighting big fish. The best part was watching her try to hold it for the pictures.

Both this fish and the walleye on the previous post were released.

We'll title this one "One Proud Dad"

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
