Places to fish with in half an hour of Hamilton?
ketchenany replied to hotsky's topic in General Discussion
People here mention the Toronto Island for Pike. May have to drive a bit faster to make it in 1/2 hour! -
Does that involve rubber gloves!

That's why Bill wears boots!

Here is a link for you to keep up with the progress http://www.ontariotravel.net/TCISSegmentsWeb/gn/travelTools/seasonal.xhtml?language=en&WT.mc_id=fallcolour

I can't offer specific places, I've done Georgian Bay to Cochrane and anywhere in between in my youth (I'm not that old). I do produce a tourism magazine for Ontario Tourism. Our 2013 printed issue will be in market by April/May 2013. If you have an iPad or similar device you can download a FREE app for Ontario Travel and can view our fall and soon our winter version. I can guide you to ontariotravel.net - here you will find all you will need to know, just pick the area you want to visit or request publications. . . . If you have problems pm me and I'll send you the link. THIS is not spam! If you have heard of Wil Wegman, we are in the same boat - Irish is a great source for the Temogami area but I'm sure a lot of other member who live outside of the "city" will be more than helpful. Hope you make it up and visit us. A

Mine too. I remember the landing like it was yesterday. He was the quiet one of the three.He was never in the news and kept to himself. I found out he did teach so is knowledge is not lost. The X15 at more that 200,000 feet is quite the accomplishment. he will be in the history books for ever as being the first human to set foot on another planet.

Wayne, no one needs this, especially you. Our thoughts are with you and the rest of the family. I'm sure things will be fine, Jen as conquered a lot of obstacles, she can do it again. Albert -
Nice work. If you have no guest you can always remove the seat and mount the BBQ. A

Left July 4th for a wedding and stayed for 3 weeks in Italy,my first visit in almost 40 years! Seen a lot of it from Rome and south. Temperatures were nothing under 40 celsius and humid. And no rain to speak of. Missed the cool Canadian air, I thought of Irish in Temagami, who hopefully is enjoying himself with his family after a difficult time. A lot of great scenery in most places but the economy is not good at all. I did cross a river FULL of fish (stocked and protected) amazing, since I didn't see much wildlife, especially birds I was looking for to photograph! I did see shore fishing in Maratea and Diamante two very beautiful costal towns, but wasn't there long enough to see if they had any luck. Why would you fish with what surrounds you, purely spectacular. The seafood dinner by the seashore was enough for me. I did stop in a mountain town and an outdoor shop near a national park owned by my wife's cousin and was forced to take a shamano Alivio 1000FB! Offered a rod but declined due to carrying it back, I have what I need and don't use. The reel will go to my grandson next year when he will start fishing with me (I've been lacking for many years and want to get at it again with him). I know trout rivers but will want to find perch to start him off. I'm so happy to be back In Canada, you would not believe, the best country in the world. I was in constant contact with my children with my iPad, I did try to log into OFC but was refused, TJ you are not world wide yet ( no problem with wifi in big cities) but when work sends a message that they wanted me back early to complete a project it felt so good. It took me a week to catch up and I love it. have a great summer You all ( I did run into and amazing American who has been sailing the oceans for 20 years ( never been in Canada) and now settled down in Mendicino, Aplumma he needs help, he smokes Cuban Santa Maria #5 and has a doormat, well I'll leave it up to you're imagination He will be my friend for as long as I live. he was a blast to talk to as he doesn't get to practice his Yankee talk! Irish, I know you are not back but hope you are having great rest. A

Lew you are so right my friend. Alway a very special day for our family, it was on this day in 1960 that we saw Union Station. We are proud to be Canadian. And have contributed to her growth from day one. Today even better, we celebrate our granddaughter 1st birthday and Wed I fly out to see family in the old country for three weeks. I haven't been back in 40 years. Have safe weekend. I'm bringing my pad and hopefully I can check in while having glass of wine!

new First Nation Chief get's tough on the Ring Of Fire
ketchenany replied to chris.brock's topic in General Discussion
LMAO Roy. On Wedesday July the 4th look up at about 9pm I'll be passing over the 'Valley' on my way way east. Our friend Irish says it best " Life is short and it has and expiry date". Which we both had experiences last year. Let us not argue over what we can't control but express our grievances and also use self-control on what we can do to help this planet/ our living space. " Throwing stones injures people, gathering stones builds walls". have a good summer all OFNers. I'm gone for a month! A -
new First Nation Chief get's tough on the Ring Of Fire
ketchenany replied to chris.brock's topic in General Discussion
I hope this stays with the leafs or it may be ugly. Roy and Aplumma and others are getting ready to flush! On a serious note let's do what e can to conserve and protect what we have. Do you know how many fish I've saved from the pan. lol -

You mean the IBM lot at Vic Park and Steels? Yikes I'm 3 blocks south on Sparks, but I think I'm Ok, right next to the Police Credit Union!

I'm going to Europe (Italy) next week for a month and plan taking my iPad. has anyone done the same? I need info about WiFi availability . . . I know that out and about is difficult and non existent. But what about the big cities such as Rome Florence . . . .? Thanks

Sorry to hear. It does happen and I've lost a lot of good people who were let go. My daughter just got let go from CT head office. New manager came in and made a statement! Her husband is a GM with CT! But it happens. One thing I've learned with many years of experience is to always network. I've hired my teachers and recently hired a friend who's business isn't going well and was a great asset and hopefully bring him back very shortly. just keep knocking and you will be fine be fine.
