Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Harvey, how cool would it be to have one of those cars today in your folks motel parking lot! That and I remember explaining to my kids the difference between a hotel and a motel. Get your kicks on Route 66!
One of those cars on 66 to California is a cherished childhood memory.
A swimming pool was a big deal in those days. And does that look like a Ford Customline on the left.
Not certain of the Ford, but a swimming pool, especially in rural Fox Lake, was a big deal.
That is fantastic Harvey, I love the colours :cool: Life was sunnier then :) :thumbsup:
Thank you Jack. It sure seems that way.
 
Thank you, Jack... You too. :):thumbsup:
Thanks buddy :) :thumbsup:
Morning Guardians! Ethan will be my sidekick today. Might do some rail fanning after while. Hope everyone has a good day.

Nice photo David :cool: :thumbsup:
Thanks, Jack!
I declined an invitation to a Super Bowl party, since I've really been looking forward to staying home and watching. I made a healthy chicken/lentil soup yesterday and I've stocked up on junk food and spirits. I wanna control the remote and not have to drive home afterwards.
The problem with Super Bowl parties is, either everyone is talking and it's hard to focus on the game, or everyone is so focused on the game that it's hard to socialize. Somehow, this can happen simultaneously. 🤔🤣 Half the people are sports fans and the other half want to watch the commercials and half time show. I like both, so it's hard to know when to take a bathroom break.
LOL! :D I know the feeling Rachel, as I get older, different things appeal, like sleeping in my own bed, and not having far to go to it :D Hope you have a great evening, sounds good to me :) :thumbsup:
Happy Superbowl Sunday Guardians View attachment 2079881

"...large amounts of drinking is anticipated..." local KMIZ channel 17 news a few minutes ago talking about Superbowl parties and the expectation that the bars will be full of fans. 🥳🍻 Extra Highway Patrol to be out and about looking for drunk driving. Me? I'll probably drink a Scotch or two, but I'm staying home and watching the game. I think the two best teams in the league are playing, so hopefully it'll be a good game. I only saw a couple of Eagles games. I think they're going to be hard to handle.
Go Chiefs!

Have a great night Mike, the Lambsfoot blade on your #88 is looking good :) :thumbsup:
Thanks Jack. He was a great guy, and he eventually accepted my bourbon drinking, especially when I introduced him to Manhattans. 😄👍
LOL! :D :thumbsup:
Good morning Guardians. Super Bowl Sunday! Pretty crappy weather this morning but I've got plenty of indoor jobs and some food shopping too. I still have my HHB with me and in the foreseeable future I think.

I was planning to get through a bunch of jobs today too Bill, but I've only managed half of them, don't know where the day has gone! Your Hartshead Barlow is always a treat to see :) :thumbsup:
Good morning Guardians !

Hope everyone has a restful Sunday 👍

Stunning stag Steve :cool: :thumbsup:
 
Thank you Jack. You learn something new everyday and that is such the fun of this thread 👍😎
The first time I saw one, I wondered if they had used a frame left over from another pattern, as I know Rodgers used it for other knives. I have one like Harvey's - except mine is something of a car-crash! :eek: I also picked this one up in the market a couple of weeks back :thumbsup:

Both cool looking LF's !
 
Good morning Guardians. I missed the whiskey/whisky talk last night. My wife’s dad was a scotch drinker. I really tried to like it but after I knew he was going to let me marry his daughter I went back to bourbon. 😄
I’ve been sipping on Woodford Double Oak and Maker’s Cask Strength but my “EDC” is 101. 😉👍 I buy it in the big bottle. This one needs replacing. View attachment 2079843
Cheers and enjoy your day, Todd.
Awesome jigging on your Swell-Centre Lamb Harvey :) :thumbsup:
Thank you Jack. I think your Rodgers is swell.😂
What a beauty Harvey! I have not seen a swell center lamb to my knowledge.
Thank you Pete.
Holy cow Harvey that’s a cool lamb, didn’t know they made a swell center lamb.
😎👍
Thank you Todd. Didn’t know that either until this one.
Thank you Jack. You learn something new everyday and that is such the fun of this thread 👍😎

Your Lambfoot is as handsome as can be. Pete.

Yours is still a beauty, Jack.
 
Good news and bad news. Good news its Superbowl Sunday. Bad news I have to dig the smoker out from the snow and Ice. Pulled pork sliders for the game washed down with some cold beers. Carried the stag lamb to church with me and its going to stay in my pocket for the rest of the day. Have a great day everyone.

What does "candle ended" mean? A quick Duck search yielded references to "candle end" lobster knives, but naught else 🤔

mbkr mbkr this is what Jack had to say about last week

If you can think of what an old tallow candle looks like? They're formed upside down, and the name comes from their shape :thumbsup:

Thanks Steve. Always a good day to learn something new. This thread moves fast. I got so far behind, I gave up and skipped ahead 😬

It moves faster than my darn internet connection tonight, I've been trying to post for ages! :rolleyes: :thumbsup:
