Good morning fine gentleman of OPE. Today is the start of fall break for the kids. My old man will be in town for a visit and we are heading to the North Carolina side of the smokies for the week. Looks like great weather ahead with 40F mornings and upper 70s afternoons.

Hoping everyone has productive and safe week

You can imagine how amazed everyone would be at seeing the toilet flush spiral going the other way I imagine it would be the ‘wrong’ way

Yeah, I've lost count of the times we've had people over just so we could all stand around the sink and just marvel at the way the water disappears down the plug hole.

I like those Coleman 425’s you have on the shelf. That one is pretty old. Theyre dated on the bottom.

Ive been playing around with a MS261. Was hard for me to put the 026 up but she was ready for a semi retirement on the shelf. I’m still looking for a NOS 026 to put one of Doc’s topends on.

Very nice. Can you still find parts for them?

Not really, but shouldn't need much. Smaller one works, just needs hinges fixed, may just replace them with others. Larger was my grandfathers and as I have time I will clean it up and repaint it.

This is my 426E three burner from the early 80’s next to a modern Coleman. I still like the older stuff better.

I swear it's purely for keeping screws and such in. right?
