Did you know: Gerald Tommaso DeLouise aka Burt Young (Also known as Paulie Pennino in the Rocky movies) joined the Marine Corps and accumulated a military boxing record of 32-2.

He then turned pro under the name Burt ‘Paulie’ Young and went 17-0 under the legendary boxing trainer Cus D’Amato (trainer of Mike Tyson, Floyd Patterson, and Jose Torres).

He was also a sparring partner for 5-time Canadian Heavyweight champion and two-time Heavyweight World Title challenger George Chuvalo (who fought against: Muhammad Ali 2x, Joe Frazier, George Foreman and Floyd Patterson).

Not my great grandparents…it’s been some years but Andys is a helluva bar.

 

ANDY'S SENEY BAR, Seney, MI.   My GREAT GRANDPARENTS (Fred and Mildred Wolford ...Aunt Dorthy in photo)  ran Seney Bar in the 50's. Photo from 1954. It's still up and going. Notice the cooler doors. Great snowmobile stop.

I always check out the ore dock when I’m in Marquette…I found these shots on FB…

 

DJI Air 2s 6/12/23 

3 boats today. At the ore dock are the American Spirit 🇺🇸 and the Hon. James L. Oberstar 🇺🇸. The difference between a 1000+ footer and an 800+ footer. And way way out near the horizon, just right of the ore dock you can see the Victory/Maumee tug/barge combo 🇺🇸. — with Naomi Carrier.

Pool renovation for my cousin. To appreciate what you see here you need to under stand that this was a normal liner pool I built over 20 years ago. I ordered parts from a company in Ontario to build the stairs and bench from, measured all dimensions and send those to a company in Ohio who made the liner. I’m amazed when this shit works out…..lol

@Doug In all my years at my cabin in the Winter, Sconnie area, that's one thing I never saw!!

We're currently seeing more bear than deer.

Best we can tell the sow kicked the three cubs out and we have 2 lone bear for a total of 6 we think.

My childhood best friend just sent me this picture of us when we were youngster's. I'm on the left and Gary is s on the right,  lol

I'm guessing that this is right around 1979 or 80. How old do I look in the pic?  I do wish that my hair line was still that low :lol:
