A good friend of mine called me Thursday.He said come with my dad and i to the hunting cabin in the poccono mts. His dad,we all call him Pa,,is 88.He was sick last summer,but is feeling good now. He wanted to go to the cabin while my friend and some others were going to mussel loader hunt deer. My friend knows I dont have a hunting license and thought it would be good if I could stay in and around the cabin with Pa while everyone was out hunting. I had a great time talking with Pa .and cooking,,Sure did learn a lot from him.We stayed thursday night,and until saturday afternoon. This is the cabin ,but not the original hunting cabin.The original hunting cabin was built by Pa and 9 other club members in 1946.The original cabin they built from railroad car doors.One winter in a real heavy snow it collapsed.They then built this cabin in 1961,,all from recycled lumber., and 13,50 cinderblocks. Pa went on to tell me more history. He was the youngest member of the hunting club when 10 guys chipped in 20 dollars each and bought property in the pocconos for 200 dallars.Then they carved in a road by hand,and built the original hunting cabin.Now,,Pa is the only living original member of the hunting club. Heres something you may like,,Pas truck//a 1980 chevy.His other son drove Pa up to the cabin in it.It is original.Pa told me he bought it new for 6,000 dollars.Every year he would coat the bottom of it with drain oil.He reached under the lips of the fenders,and told me he smeared grease in there each year too. Pa built this stove from a stainless steel drum and it really throws some heat It was a great visit,,glad you could all join us too.I havbe more pictures I took down by the stream,I will post some of them on Ttales later.
