Old Bud donated $1.5 Million to the local YMCA, and the land to build 2 schools on and a host of other stuff to the community. Yep, Bud had some cashola. Dad went snowmobiling with him and some other guys one time and Bud was chewing tobacco and forgot to lift his visor when he spit so the inside was full of tobacco spit. Dad wondered who in the heck this idiot was. It turned out to be Bud.

Get this, the good stuff isnt at the auction, the kids kept that!

You should see the outboad motors; unbelievable. And again, the good ones were donated to the local maritime museum.

Okay, I will keep an eye on the Marlin 40-60 if I am there when it goes. Anyone else?


What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.
