Ancient Water Hiking

[zelph]

Well you're almost set to go. By the weekend you should be fishing in your new rig.

A break in the weather here will have me mowing most of the morning. wish I had some live churro grass eaters to help me out with grass maintenance

Yakima locks usually have a key code number on the cylinders(front?3digit code..or somewhere on the cylinders)...you can order new keys I believe..or just pickup new lock cylinders with new keys..
I sell a lot of Yakima racks and parts..but the only thing I have right now are a set of ski racks..with no keys..I know somewhere I have some more stuff in a box(mounts,plates,rubber pads..etc..and probably have locks and keys)..just don't know where it is right now..
I'll have to hunt up my mask and snorkel to find the rest..


..Actually..just looked through my craigslist pictures for the "last dated" Yakima one..appears it's only a set of Q80 clips and pads..easier than trying to find the actual item.. ..sorry..no locks/keys right now.I think a set of 4 runs about $50 new ...order the keys instead.

I would have like to have made it up to your place while on vacation to see your museum. AND follow you to your favorite thrift gold mines

Two or three days a week over the last couple weeks I've had to work on a friend's rental house about 8 blocks away..with two thrift stores between here and there. I'm averaging about $50 a day profit shopping at those two stores ..for a 1/2 hour on my way to work .. I'm usually 10 minutes late for work...Oh well..
Box of steelhead and salmon fishing gear($200 for $4),Kitchenaid mixer,35mm camera with a $70 lens on it,electronic Sabine metronome,special bluetooth headset,another 35mm camera with a $50 lens,rare wood Mckenzie River Driftboat model kit,Yamaha FG Junior guitar,Bogan/Manfrotto 3216 monopod,Bosch Bulldog newer rotohammer with a lot of bits(about $200 worth of bits),Couroc Golden Gate Tray,Fewick Fencolor Depth Finder(unused),a Dremel Mototool(like new$5),couple older spinning reels(French/German),a bicycle suspension front fork(Rock Shox duke slI needed,$4)and a Pfaff Ziptronic Sewing machine($$$-$16).
..You just have to keep an open mind about what you buy,know your values..and be a hoarder.
If you would have stopped by here for a week,you probably could have paid for your trip...

I would have rented a u-haul for my return trip and let my wife drive the car back

Your area has a different class of people that get rid of such nice stuff.

Good thing you have a large garage for storing/hoarding all that stuff.
