Thanks for the kind words Chef.
The tree falling was more of a nuisance than anything. I just have a
couple of holes in my roof and some cosmetic damage. It is
understandably a low priority for the insurance company and
we are waiting to get an appointment with the adjuster. They
said 3 weeks. Looks like my temporary roof patch might have to
weather the winter.
The good news...is a dangerous tree is down and I have some
nice firewood. I might save some of the 25 foot trunk and make
some furniture out of it ....or save it for a day that I have time to
turn some plugs. Someone told me the tree is a variation of a
cherry. Perhaps If I do make some plugs I might make some
needles and finish them natural.
Even though Montauk was slow, I am happy that I still found a
couple fish...even if they were micro. When montauk is wide open...its
hard to pull away from the action to explore. So, the slow periods are
nice to get eyes on some fresh water....perhaps I found
a couple of new retreats for when it gets crazy up there.
