Sweet ... thanks for sharing ... didnt fred have a house on the au sable river ... i grew up in the detroit area and then moved to alaska at 18 and really havent been back since but i remember floating on the au sable in a canoe with my dad and him saying that was freds house as we floated by.

Good luck Cody!

My '59 Grizzly and I are not on speaking terms at the moment, so I truly hope you have a better relationship with yours.

Morring Guys.. I am off to the north woods..

     

I canoed the Au Sable when I visited the Museum many moons ago and met Fred -- I remember hearing that Fred enjoyed fishing the river.  Good luck with your hunt!

highlife - Yes, Fred had a beautiful home right on the water's edge. In Cody's photograph of the plant, it is just behind the plant in the trees, within easy walking distance of the factory.

If you check old threads, several of us have posted photographs of Fred's home.

Thanks, I will check it out.

How did it go Cody, any luck?

Yea I was wondering the same thing. I'm o vacation in two days and am getting the itch BAD!
