I blame my whole musical life on John Prine. Likely my all time favourite writer and musician. RIP!!

Thanks for the heads up Cliff I had 2 full back rib racks in brine since Monday. Just rinsed off and racked,pat dry,crack peppered and now in the fridge til morning . Then in the smoker they go for the 4-3-1 method. Granddaughter has been asking for my bacon ribs. I will deliver her share to enjoy .

I tend to stay away from painting boats. Guys do use "all grip paint" which is marine boat paint and tends to work pretty good but it is very expensive and the application has to be just right or you will get eventual peeling. We did a 1960 18 foot aluminum boat the man wanted converted into a semi-bass boat with a casting deck, new floor, repainted boat and engine. We used All wheels body shop in Stoney Creek to paint the boat, and we did the motor. Jeff really knows what he is doing and did a great job on this wreck of a boat, and he is very reasonable. Here are some pics that gives you an idea of some of the build, and some inspiration that yes you can make an old boat into something new again.We took all the floatation foam out and replaced it. Totally soaked and probably added an additional 300 lbs to the boat. The customer could not believe how fast his boat was after the build. So bottom line is that a build like that is very time consuming and expensive. Knowing how expensive a complete make over would be we did try to talk the individual into just finding a newer boat. The customer insisted he wanted it done. He claimed the boat was his fathers, then his, and once finished would give it to his son as a surprise present and keep it in the family. That's exactly what happened, He took the boat home and put it in the garage. he called his son to the garage. The son broke into tears when he saw it, and they were thrilled using it for 6 months when unfortunately the father suddenly passed away. The son has the boat, loves fishing with it, and it represents a near and dear "forever" reminder of his Dad.

Been there done that! Talk about a butt pucker, as you pin the throttle Dan.

Better get use of this nit-picking way of making extra revenue. Gonna see a lot of this as soon as the government finds a cure for covie and starts to make up the billions of lost revenue spent.

Nobody----but Noooobody---could paint a picture with a song like the late and great John Prine who died of CV19 Have a listen--

Just won a bunch of Blues Award, he is only 21, still hope for the future of blues
