I, too, have a 1911. Letter of authentication from Colt Mfg. verifies the family provenance. It is Serial No. 39****, one of 2500 manufactured and shipped July 30, 1918. It is complete with military issue holster, extra clips, web belt with clip holders, and the U.S. Army papers issued to the...

I'm not familiar with "speypages", so probably not there. As for pictures, I assume you're talking about photos of me with a Spey rod and fish on. I do have a print or two tucked away in an album. I might even be adept enough with this printer/scanner I have to scan one onto my computer. If I...

We're having a strange autumn here. It's been unseasonably warm, in many cases setting record highs, recently, though we've already had several frosts too. In some places the trees look like they are in a quandary. In that middle photo above it's possible to see only the beginning of the fall...

I appreciate your reticence to disclose your "local" river, Terry. "Lads"!!!! My, I haven't been called a "lad" since a ghillie shook his head thirty-five years ago and said, "Laddie, I think with more practice, you might master it." The "it" was the Spey rod I was wielding with ineptness and...

I love 'em. Dividing my outdoor time between fly-fishing and wing-shooting this time of year often creates vexing choices but ones I'm more than happy to deal with. One of the benefits of our present domicile is the fact that I can pursue both of these pleasures—on the same day. Tuesday...

Lovely fish, Terry. You don't mention the "local river". Are we to guess?? :ylsmoke: And a note to "Wander"...just 741.2 miles north of you there's Cattaraugus Creek, near Springville, NY. That's not far for a die-hard steelheader. Allen R

This item has SOLD. Thanks to all who inquired and to those who were waiting. Allen R

We spent the month of August on the island. Had a grand time. It was crowded, so many of the popular camping areas were crowded, but we managed to do fine and saw lots of nice country and coastlines. We went as far north as Port Hardy and out to the west coast at Tofino. We mixed camping with...

What great fun! Thanks for posting, JC. Memories flood back. The very first "powered vehicle" I owned all by myself (a friend and I jointly owned a Model A) was a Cushman Eagle. It served me well during high school ('51-'55), except when taking a date to the drive-in. Traveling at 45mph was...

SALE PENDING. Allen R.

I've changed a previous post. The Dodge Dakota is NOT part of the deal. Only the FlipPac is for sale. Thanks. Allen R

It's the SLT with dark gray cloth interior and a 3.55 rear end. No pics of the inside at this stage. There are no tears, rips, worn spots on any of the surfaces and no damage otherwise, but it's hunting season. I won't get the interior cleaned for several weeks yet. Dog hairs, empty shotgun...

Well, not in the river. I don't want to test its flotation attributes. We're high and dry up here on the plain about twenty miles north of Twin Falls near the Little Wood River. I think we're about 1K miles (1.6K Km ±) from Edmonton. Allen R.

L is 67.5", W is 63.5", H (clearance at cab) 22.5" , Overall Ht is 33" (approx.) Allen R

The Dakota is NOT FOR SALE. Thanks for asking. This has been updated 9/16/10 @ 1734h MDT. Allen R

Away from home. Will post reply Sunday Eve Allen R.

I'm fairly certain that it was I who bought this FlipPac at the time you were contemplating same purchase. Thanks for asking about the combo. I'm not sure. A couple of persons have asked this question. I'm fond of the Dakota. Nice little truck. Let me mull over this idea and re-post. (Mmmmmmm...

Here's another interior shot. Allen R.

Some photos. I've put a pic of the repair work I did on the overhead tear. It's not pretty, but it's functional. Nary a skeet entered during our trip to B.C. last month. Allen R.

I'll try to get some photos of it soon...after this weather front moves east. Allen R
