The research and writings of Jim Woodruff, Grand River Topologist and Woodruff Family Genealogist. Tuesday, January 15, 2013. The Battle of Okinawa - Part I. For the record: Here is my story of the Battle for Okinawa, the last great battle of World War II. I have already told humorous parts of this in "Grandpa's Stories" for the entertainment of my immediate family. Well, that was scary. What kind of a secret mission was I being sent on? How glamorous was that? The 1746th Map Depot Detachment. Across Low...

The research and writings of Jim Woodruff, Grand River Topologist and Woodruff Family Genealogist. Saturday, October 12, 2013. Dynamite Stories: Episode 2: Don't Try This at Home. As you can imagine, this creates a tricky situation safety-wise. How do you get rid of old dynamite in a nitro-stained wooden box? You sure don't haul it to the town dump. Obviously, we didn't publicize the incident. Posted by The Topologist,. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Dynamite Stories: Episode 3 - Guarding the M.

Coach's Latest Adventures: Wisconsin River Trip. For more about this and my other adventures, please visit my website: www.lhoff.com. Wednesday, May 13, 2009. May 4th - Hammond Marina to Chicago. We took our time this morning for we had less than 12 miles to go. Again the water was relatively calm with only a slight breeze coming from the southeast which for one of the few times will helped while we've been on Lake Michigan. Don't you realize you're in Michigan? Put some boots on! And possibly buy a brick.

Jim Woodruff: Canoes and Romance V
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/canoes-and-romance-v.html
Friday, February 13, 2009. Canoes and Romance V. In my 2001 article in "Wooden Canoe" I said that the pictures and text in the 1908 Morris Canoes catalog resulted in a positive identification of the old Pratt family canoe. It happened this way:. After months of correspondence back and forth I traveled to Bainbridge Township of Berrien County to the home of my cousin (Phil Shane) who had inherited the canoe. He took me upstairs in a building behind his house and there it was! The Writings of Jim Woodruff.

Jim Woodruff: Whitewood Dugout Canoes VI
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/whitewood-dugout-canoes-vi.html
Wednesday, February 25, 2009. Whitewood Dugout Canoes VI. Some have questioned my conclusion that "whitewood" meant the Tuliptree, suggesting instead that the pioneers might have been referring to the Basswood (tilia Americana). A Field Guide to Trees and Shrubs" by George A. Petrides says about the Tuliptree: Indians made trunks into dugout canoes. The Audubon Field Guide to North American Trees" says:Pioneers hollowed out a single log to make a long, lightweight canoe. American Woods" by Shelly E. ...

Jim Woodruff: Hiawatha's Canoe II
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/hiawathas-canoe-ii.html
Saturday, February 14, 2009. Longfellow continues with Hiawatha's words:. Give me of your boughs, O Cedar! Of your strong and pliant branches,. My canoe to make more steady,. Make more strong and firm beneath me! Through the summit of the Cedar. Went a sound, a cry of horror,. Went a murmer of resistance,. But it whispered, bending downward,. Take my boughs, O Hiawatha! Down he hewed the boughs of cedar,. Shaped them straightway to a frame-work,. Like two bows he formed and shaped them,. Made each crevic...

http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/canoes-and-romance-ii.html
Monday, February 9, 2009. Canoes and romance II. Then there is the song, "Out in my Old Town Canoe", written for a 1916 student musical comedy which intones:. I've nestled down in limousines and heard love's whispered pleas, tender, true,. In sailing yachts romantic I have skimmed o'er many seas, 'Neath skies so blue,. I've spooned in cozy corners when the lights were low, And always missed my cue,. It seemed very pretty, but I surely know, There's no love like the love in my canoe,". Canoes and Romance V.

Jim Woodruff: Whitewood Dugout Canoes VII
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/whitewood-dugout-canoes-vii.html
Thursday, February 26, 2009. Whitewood Dugout Canoes VII. Many of the early Spanish explorers of the Southeast, including Cabez de Vaca and the DeSoto chroniclers, note the use of dugouts, as did Roger Williams in New England and Captain John Smith in Virginia. Dugouts were used in the Hudson River valley and the coastal regions of New York, the Paciifc Northwest and Alaska. He then goes on to describe four dugouts that Cranbrook had in its collections:.

Jim Woodruff: Continuing with my "Hiawatha's Canoe":

Wednesday, February 18, 2009. Continuing with my "Hiawatha's Canoe":. You may have noticed that the description of canoe construction contains no mention of how to make paddles or what wood was used. Longfellow explains:. Paddles none had Hiawatha,. Paddles none he had or needed,. For his thoughts as paddles served him,. And his wishes served to guide him;. Swift or slow at will he glided,. Veered to right or left at pleasure.". What canoeist wouldn't envy such power? Then he called aloud to Kwasind,.

Jim Woodruff: Canoes and romance III
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/canoes-and-romance-iii.html
Monday, February 9, 2009. Canoes and romance III. The place where the Eisenhowers rented the canoe had to be the Huron River Boat Livery on Argo Pond, a backwater behind a low dam on the Huron River located within walking distance of the University of Michigan campus. There is still a popular canoe livery at this spot, but both the building and the canoes are made of metal. What kind of canoe did the Eisenhowers paddle that June night so many decades ago? Why an Old Town? In 1981 the Wooden Canoe Heritag...

Jim Woodruff: LASALLE'S ELM-BARK CANOE
http://krugercanoesjimwoodruff.blogspot.com/2009/02/lasalles-elm-bark-canoe.html
Friday, February 6, 2009. The intrepid LaSalle built an Iroquois-style canoe, but was it worth it? Robert Cavalier, Sieur de LaSalle, was a French explorer and entrepreneur who built the first sailing ship on the Upper Great Lakes. This ship, which he named the Griffon, had the ability to carry large cargoes of trade goods and furs, and was the key to LaSalle's grand plan to develop a French commercial empire in the North American interior. After days of bushwhacking through briars and brambles, walking ...

The topography of ordinary | (Almost) daily musings of a barefoot earth wandering mother of five
The topography of ordinary. Almost) daily musings of a barefoot earth wandering mother of five. April 14, 2015. April 15, 2015. I always feel 15 when I walk to pick up my kids from school. The sunshine makes me giddy and invites my inner girl to come out and play. My bare feet dance and I get to do all the quirky things aloneness allows. Laugh In that creepy alone way. I think thoughts I don’t say out loud. Search out the best new spring grass and push my feet into its softness. He wasn’t alone. There is...
