I didnt get a pocket knife to whittle a spoon charlie, I got an axe, in fact I had to make my own chair to sit by his fire. (I'll post a picture of that when I get the lumber we sawed off of it).

Welcome back, Jeff. Things got a little quiet while you were gone. Looks like you fellers had a great time, and apparently ol' Tom paid yer wages right on time. That's a great looking spoon you HACKED. Looks like it would handle a mouthful of grits, too. ::)

Ok Jeff maybe you can tell me how he does it... Tail all day for a can of peas... Ok I just noticed the brand name of the peas. That isn't just ole store brand but the high dollar peas.

Na it's just got to be more than that.. Ok I've got it the peas aren't anything but a distracter. It's the GRITS.

Hope you had a great time in the Southland

LOL! Woodsmill!

Tom,
We definitely want in on your secret. He's even got a smile on his face! ;)

I guess I'm gonna have to go down there myself and work for a can of peas to learn the secret?! ;)

A late Happy New Year,
Billy

Hey my spoon does look like an axe!  Wait till you see the bench we made using the axe, it looks like a spoon. I really did have a good time down there, you can tell by all the sawdust on my hat. Someday I hope to get Tom up here and show him the miracles of Michigan. Tom, did you know we can take regular old rain water and turn it into a semi solid product that can preserve foods? We can also turn it into a complete solid from which we can create almost anything, from Skid roads to sculpture to homes for Kevin. Even one of the main ingredients for a favorite Florida beverage.

If that "stuff" is what I think it is, I tried some of it up in Georgia one time and got my feet going so fast that I outran my bo-hunkus and ended up flat on my back.  Couldn't get up either.  Maybe y'all make it better than they do in Atlanta but if it does the same thing to ice tea as it does to my shoes then I won't be able to catch the glass. :-/

I found out somethun Tom.  I hung out there to long. Its something in the air down there that slows the metabolism. When I got home, I had slowed to the point that I froze my ass just going from the truck to the house.

   Eat grits, Jeff, you'll get better. They sure are getting popular. Followed a vehicle last nite with a bumper sticker that said 'eat more grits'- and it had a Maine license plate. Dang things are taking over..  lw

Dang it Jeff! You got a name brand, expensive can o' peas!  I'm his own flesh and blood an' I got a store brand >:( .  I think I whittled a better spoon than yours (wish I had a digital camera and I'd show you a picture of it), but then I used his pocket knive and you had to use his ax. :o  Tom gave me a 15 minute lunch break but he counted the time it took me to whittle the spoon. So I only had 10 minutes to eat that whole can o' peas.:-/

Gordon and Allyson, I'll tell you how Tom gets people to work for a can o' peas.  He takes a person way out in the boonies to work. There's only one small windy, twisty, two rut road to get there.  The "worker" has no idea where he is or how to get back. He's......stuck.::)   So, if'n ya wanna go home at the end of the day, you work, eat yore can o' peas and work some more.  ???  I'm sure Jeff can verify this 'cause it's the HONEST truth. ;)

Jeff, I'd surely like to see that chair you made. I had to sit on the bucket of the front end loader....in the hot sun.....

   I keep asking myself- how did you guys open the can of peas??! I came up with axe or chainsaw- neither would leave much edible material.. :D :D :D   lw

If your real carefull you can clamp a can of peas in the dogs on the baker bandmill you see pictured. You need a slow rate of feed and have to set the blade height at around 3.75 inches as not to slab the top off to thick...
