http://www.michigan-sportsman.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=35&pictureid=1423 here are some pics of the first blind. i just wanted to thank everyone for the help we had recieved. weather it was donations or help in any kind of way THANKYOU VERY MUCH.
we had a ball out there building this. dan(spiderman) connel (dsconnell) decided he needed to cut the power cord on one of only 2 skill saws we had 10 minutes into the build.. mark(gopherboy) spague (michigander88) was the best gopher money can buy. katrina (mrsbetterlatethennever) decided to grace us with her presence and get us lunch.(thankyou dear)..lol. rick the (sawguy) decided he needed to keep one of only 2 hammers with him at all time even though he wasnt using it.(rick im still trying to figure that one out). i had broken my own sawzaw 1 of only 2 we had. thankgod rick brought his. then right at the end our little freind josh decided to cut the power cord on our last skill saw. I CANT BELIEVE NO ONE WAS KILLED YESTERDAY..LOL
i will let all these guys tell you why they have these new nicknames, way to funny.

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE

Wish I could have stuck around to help, or at least to be the designated "elec cord watcher" ! :evil:

As it was, our trip was cut short due to a sick dog (the 13 yr old this time...not Maxwell) and we came back home.

What else do you need to complete blind #2 ? (besides power cords)

[dsconnell]

I see you had to throw that one in their..

Spiderman... :lol:

Quick explanation - To make a long story short, I was up on top of the blind putting on the roof and all at once the support came loose and the whole blind shifted and I thought I was going down :yikes: Like the real man I am I let out a nice loud WHOOOAAA and promptly crawled on all fours from the center of the top with a wide base and although I could not see myself I dont doubt I did look like superman and I will tell you what.. Surely did not take long to get my rear to the ground!:D

Glad I could help and I think we should take a poll on M-S on Stain or Paint? What do you think?

[radiohead]

4 guys standing around watching 1 guy work....did you outsource the job to the Detroit City Water Dept? :D
