Nice of you to give Isle Royale the heads up so they can evacuate.
Yes, bears should fear a hungry Scot.

Bears...Isle Royal....not likely.... and if there are they're the tiny black bear so....maybe... I was talking about the moose and other animals as well as people who may be there....
Finally....1938 miles of driving, & I'm back home!
Away for 8 days on the nastiest machinery moving job I've ever had. The engine was in the basement of an antique shop filled with china, glass, bric-a-brac, knicknacks, gee gaws, tchotchkes, gimcracks, & other objets d'art (aka crap). The building ( an old shoe factory, ca 1845) had been remodeled over the centuries, & the engine was entombed in the basement, partially within a major structural element. We made structural mods, cut a hole in the first floor, erected a moblie gantry crane, disassembled the engine, hoisted out the pieces, shoveled aside picture frames (& china, glass, & furniture), wheeled everything out over a temporary bridge over an old elevator, loaded it onto me trailer, & fixed the floor. It took 2.5 people 6 days to do this.
And yes, old buildings in econonomically depressed New England towns do not lack for dirt, cobwebs, roaches, low ceilings, dust, dank, trip hazards, jagged thingies, rickety stairs & people who want to ooh & aah my technical wizardy in extricating this ancient monster.
Btw, anyone working with me learns to to take stern orders about safety.
That's another story.

Which person is only half a person?
A volunteer who only worked 2 long nasty days.
He helped cuz it was fun.
Weird, eh.
Though I do have some fancy equipment for this stuff.
And he got to break some big structural things into little pieces.
Disappointing that it wasn't really just half a person, but in reality a whole person working half the time. Sounds like fun to me too.
