Default Hot Times in Hammond

I got to the barn a little after 7:00 AM and plumbed up the fuel lines for my HUP.



After a nice two hour HUP intensive session, Grant and Bob arrived all ready to split and stack Bob's firewood.
The morning was cool to start, but soon heated up after we wrestled some fairly large pieces. Grant put his airforce training to good use - he ably demonstrated his "pile it" training. Bob is a magician with the splitter. We took turns running the splitter, fetching wood and stacking. After a quick lunch break at Chez Marie, we finished the wood pile.



Once completed, Bob fetched the beer and we took a small break. After some war stories about being a bird gunner, Bob led us down to the barn for some CMP fun. Bob and Grant try to fab up a new breather assembly for Bob's Chev. Hopefully they will post the end product as I had to head for home before they finished.



Way to go Team Canada - 6-1 over the scrappy Russians. Canada takes the series with a 7-0-1 record. Beats the hell out of the '72 series!
