help there are claws everywhere

But very busy. The recoil on the pull cord on my outboard gave-up the ghost on the last day of camp a half-mile out on the lake. Hard to start the motor if the pull cord don't rewind into its spool. Good thing I don't mind rowing. Now the challenge is finding someplace willing to work on a 48 year old motor. Scouts consumer my next two weekends.

I see I missed two birthdays...oh, looks like neither have been active here in a few years. Now I don't feel so bad not sending out b-days shouts on time.
