    We're hitting a couple good restaurants here. We don't really have any good places to eat in Ashton, so we enjoy a couple when we come to Salmon. Last night was giant prawns and Modelo. Great pizza the night before. Tonight, 5 cheese tortellini soup!

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I got a bunch of ingots in all the stuf I brought back from Boise. There's also bronze and brass ingots for future projects, but I need a hotter furnace for those. I'm going to build on out of a beer keg!!
