End of the work day week day works for me... my list of wants is never ending when it comes to Bass Pro Shop, nothing wrong with adding a few more items, and scratching some off!

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!

TSK TSK TSK G,

You do know now that the easter bunny isn't going to bring you any chocolate?

I just wanted to say a special thank you to all the people that helped me in the last week. I was in a three day course Tuesday -Thursday to obtain my Hunting Licence.

I would also like to make note that Tim Green was an awesome instructor!

There were several times where I found I needed help with the content or the slang in the conversations the guys were having during the course and found my answers through people here.

Thank you again to everyone for your help.

What a great group of people and an amazing resourse.

Couldn't have done it without you... 100% on exam!

Cheers

Jen!!

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you , Happy Birthday dear Bly, happy birthday to you!

Special days that come once a year... I hope you find it not only full of little joys but lots of laughter.

Cheers,

Jen

Stories like that should not be read while at work... I am laughing so hard my assistant had to come and check on my sanity.

OH MY!! What a bad day that was in your life!

Glad to see you have a sense of humour about it all.

Thanks for sharing!

Cheers

I have xp on my computer which is a benefit... as all the pictures in my files are too big to post on here... so this is what I do...

Select the pictures you want to post.

Send them to yourself in an email...xp will ask if you want to make pictures smaller say yes.

Then open your email, copy the pictures to your desktop,

Hit browse button in the area below the screen you type in on here

Choose to go to desktop, pick the picture you want

Hit the upload button

The program will put the photos in your attachements file

(there is a box right above the browse button that says attachments)

If you click on the drop down menu in that box it will show you what pictures you have up loaded

You will see a green + beside the picture on top of a page and a red x , click on the green + and the link to your picture will appear in text in the box above.

To check that you have done it all right , choose preview message.

Hope this helps

Hello Bryce,

Welcome to OFC, you will find the people and posts to be very informative.

I have property up near Sauble Beach and have often fished the Sauble River at Sauble Falls, right next to the provincial park. It is about 5 min north of town. If you go into the variety store on the North East corner just North of the parking lot the gentleman there will tell you everything you need to know about the area and also sells bait including roe sacks...

We have caught mostly trout, but during hot summer days the fishing is difficult unless you are willing to walk a long way from the bridge. It is a great swimming place for all those teens camping at the parks close by.

Good Luck and if you get a chance while up there try fishing on Boat lake or at the boat launch directly adjecent to it. Just ask directions while up there, it is on the road that goes east west from Oliphant to Wiarton... Amazing bass, channel cats, ling, and pike, just watch out for the water snakes .

I look forward to reading your posts.

Cheers,

Jen

Well, as you know we all ask questions for a reason. Easton is going to kill me, however, I must post the pictures. I am still shaking my head...

He and I were out fishing today, as we have been doing often in the afternoon when we have a moment. We have not been fairing well in the fish category, but today was different. We were having a good day when a woman showed up and fed the birds, I had just commented to him that there were so many when he cast and the next thing you know he was telling me a seagull had his line wrapped around it. He gently pulled it in. (although we debated cutting the line and just letting it go, in the end reeling it in was the right choice.)

If I hadn't been so busy, crying from laughing so hard, being bitten by the poor bird, bleeding, telling Easton to hold its head, and unwinding the line from its little body, I would have taken more pics... one with the OFNCOMMUNITY.COM tag on it. He may have managed to get points for his team in the "other" category. ( that is a joke, just in case anyone wondered).

I am pretty sure they don't allow Birds Easton...

p.s. The bird was eventually untangled and flew off to enjoy another day and the people in their cars enjoyed a little lunchtime entertainment... at our expense I am sure.

Seeing as there are so many seagulls around when fishing, I am sure there are many stories about them grabbing lures or getting tangled in line.

What, if you have caught one, have you done?

And if it needs breaking in I can give you a list of lawns that will need mowing soon!

Since we all know you are going to be wanting to use your new TOY a lot!

hehehe

That was an absolutely wonderful glimps into your lives...

It took time for TJ to do that, and in itself, that makes an amazing birthday present...

Happy Birthday Monique, fourty is just the beginning I hear... lol

Enjoy your very special day!

Cheers,

Jen

Welcome Glenn, look forward to hearing all about your adventures!

Hello Tony,

I sell real estate in the Greater Hamilton Area, if you are not already contracted with a realtor, pm me, as I would be more than happy to help you in your search.

Cheers

Jen

Basskicker,

That link takes me to Photo Bucket but will not run your slide show , even when I log in!

Is it me? (very possibly)

Jen

No you are not the only one. I used to wonder why my friends never brought a power line into their place till I spent an entire weekend there. Fridge, stove, and hot water heater all run off propane, there is a generator that is run occationally to pump water up to the holding tank but otherwise, being there is the most peaceful experience. They heat the whole place with a wood stove and even have a country kitchen in the back of the garage. It is a different lifestyle to say the least... however, I never hear them complain about bills or go on and on about what was on the television last night.

Their debates are about things like words used in scrabble, the new monopoly game that is out or a recently read novel.

Enjoy the tranquility you have found in small things Entropy...

We could all use a little more of that!

Cheers

Jen

Hi Entropy,

Friends of ours have no electricity at all at their house, they use Kerosene in all the lanterns. On a given night there are probably 8 lit in the living area. Coal Oil does burn cleaner, (not as strong a smell). If you have your wicks all set right you will get a clean burn off of kerorsene as well. Cost savings wins out in their case.

They use reflectors behind each wall mounted light, which helps alot when it comes to the light they supply.

Cheers,

Jen

At the very least you got out there... nice read!
