Leaving on our 6 hour trek to New Hampshire, so no posts until tonight and sporadic over the next few days. Looking forward to meeting some TBPers at Hardscrabble’s annual shindig. I hope I won’t be required to slaughter my meal. 🙂

Luv to go but probably get lost charting a course..
What with the earf being flat it is sooo damn hard to walk in a straight line while maintaining a proper heading…
North… pfft child’s play.
West.. well that’s a real mindfuck!
Maybe next year I’l try…
Have fun and greetings from my rich brother’s fabulous lakeside palace near Chicago.
I’ll be interested in any tales from the front.
Suspect, upon meeting a few scribes with known personality traits,
that the appearance and character might be in contrast to prior perceptions.
You know, kind of like when we’ve heard someone on the radio over a period of time, then, upon meeting them, or seeing a picture, we think: “Whoa. Didn’t expect him / her to look / be like that. He / she is way more _________ than I thought they’d be.”
OR, perceptions will be fulfilled, exactly as envisioned…
So, upon meeting X, we might come away with: “He really is quite _________.”
I’ll leave it to the non attending monkey’s imaginations on the blog to get creative with that one.
e.g.,
Upon meeting _____, he really is quite handsome and likable in person. Phunny little phocker.
Upon meeting _____, he really is quite arrogant, drinks too much, and is rather confrontational.
Upon meeting _____, she’s an attractive gal, with a soothing voice, and a nice set of……..eyes.
SAFE TRAVELS TO ALL ON THE JOURNEY, AND ESPECIALLY TO ADMIN & ANY FAM JOINING HIM.
When I met Admin & Avalon in NYC a while back I thought — “Damn, she’s hot!! What the hell is she doing with HIM???” lol
Wish I could be there. Hope someone takes lots of pics and does a nice write-up.
I was out the door when I read that your not going. I would need you to be there or else I’d be surrounded by bubbly, chatty, outgoing people and that would be hell for me.
Would I be enough of a pendejo to make your day? LOL!
You know, I am reluctant to use Spanish swear words because they can be used inappropriately. Although Montefrio thinks pendejo means young boy, it is a harsh word in Mexico. And those fuckers love bad words.
Get over it.
Like a meme that triggers libtards, embrace the madness.
Stick out the tongue and lick away, instant crowd fav, if you lived.
you’re
Very funny lol and not true ??? I wish you were coming! It would’ve been so nice to see you again.
Please post a debrief, it’s one of 2 events I genuinely regret missing this year, best wishes to all in attendance, godspeed.
HSF,
Make it an annual event and my wife and I will put it on our bucket list.
Hardfarmer ,I was planning on coming but as usual my plans flew South all the way to Mexico. I just got home today so I’m late for our ” get together “with neighbors . My mom just told me to tell you she really enjoyed the Maple Syrup. I will be ordering some more . Gotta keep mom happy. I hope all of you have a wonderful time. I do wish I could be there. I really want to meet you and all the others .If for no other reason than to buy you all a beer . Anyway you guys be safe and drive safe . God bless.
ditto, ditto
Odin send his regards…
please record/post all fights & altercations–
that would be worth having a paywall–
I wish everyone a grand time. I would point out it may be a good idea to be cautious with photos as far as posting or distributing. Five years from now MSNBC will be saying “here is a picture of X at a radical blah blah blah picnic” at an “extremist compound” in the remote etc etc. They won’t believe you were discussing sustainable farming or how to harvest syrup even though you were.
This just in…Stucky and E.C. are on their way, after a minor altercation…
Say hi to the feds lol
Sorry I’m missing out a on all the great food, libations and the great company! I’m hoping this event will be so successful you may consider an annual gathering.
Remember, no rough housing and keep your hands to yourself.
Have a safe and fun trip. What a novel idea, seeing people in real life…You better wear your “I’m Admin” t-shirt.
HAve fun Jim,
You’re about an hour from my bunker. I’m over in the southern corner of the state.
Enjoy your time, it’s beautiful weather here !
Irish
Have fun folks at hard scrabble farm!I actually had to leave the hills of Hampster today to go back and help out me mum on the Vineyard.
Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do,which means you have free reign!
rein
Reign/verb:to possess or exercise sovereign power,i.e.,freedom/all our rulers.
Each have individual power,in this case,at a party/gathering.
What are you James…. royalty?
Pretty sure free rein is a riding term not a “let me eat cake” type of thing…
Dude,we will all be royalty if we were at the farm!Comeon/food/music/fireworks/libations ect.,really,do you leafs know how to party?!
Just drank six beer and don’t have a buzz…yeah I can party.
To be honest I wish I was there. It would be awesome. Me breaking bread with so many that I have traded wits with over the years. I am serious when I say that if it takes place again next year I might just go….
6 beers and no buzz,stop drinking non alcoholic beer for cripes sake!You make it to New England can put you up a night and take you shooting/hiking whatever,so,comeon down and be a ameromutt for a week or so.
Oh,and bring your April Wine and BTO cassettes!
Sounds like a plan,, and yeah I admit I cheated wuz drinking Corona..
Anyways I will get to work and dig up sum cassettes
Cheers

Leave now. Say hi to my buddy at a reunion in fort Kent.
What are the odd’s? I will be on a flight to Logan at 7:30 tomorrow morning where my daughter that lives in Newmarket NH will pick me up. I am spending a long weekend where we are going to see the Geriatric Rock-n-Roll tour that the Rolling Stones are performing Sunday up that way. I understand a full medical team is present at each of the concerts.
Ah,Gillette Stadium.I am surprised a band with such misogynist/toxic masculinity type music even allowed to play there!
Gillette is know known for transgenderism/soy type personalities that this seems odd to say the least!
Oh,have fun,saw the stones there 20 years ago,final time for them and me but seems they have a good setlist (albeit greatest hits)going out there.I just can’t do it anymore,but,will till there overdue death follow what passes for Tull these days till it is over!
We’ve arrived. Long ass drive. We immediately ran into cz in the parking lot. He guessed it was us because I had a Phillies shirt on. Now we are in an Irish Pub. What a surprise.
But how did you know it was Cubic Zirconia?
I just hope there wasn’t any animal husbandry going on up there.
Wish I could have gone. Please post pictures.
I lost my old large dog the day after Fourth of July. He died at home with me taking care of him to the end. He hated strangers and was a wonderful dog.
It was GREAT meeting everyone. Thank you, HSF, for creating the opportunity.
