Gonna have to keep an eye on this area. I am planning 5 days at wicksteed lake next weekend.

Really nice gesture John.

Glad to see you back on the board Roy!

Cliff I am so sorry to hear the sad news. My condolences to you and your family.

Good luck and let us know how you make out.

Where do you live?

Oh I live in Hamilton

I also need a bit of work done on my basement heater which was originally designed for an RV home. Had a small leak that reliance found and they turned the system off for me. Please PM if interested in some side $.

CONGRATS LT!!

I believe that it has to do with the sunlight being mostly blocked giving your pupils a chance to dilate thus exposing more retina to the suns rays. From the net: You actually can safely look at a total solar eclipse while the sun is _totally_ blocked by the moon. It looks like the moon has a fiery white aura, and it is one of the more spectacular things I have ever seen. So why do people say it's dangerous to look at a solar eclipse? Well, in general (during non-eclipse times), you've probably been told not to stare at the sun. This is because the sun simply outputs more power than our eye is designed to handle, and exposing our eye to that kind of power can damage the retina. And in a nutshell, solar eclipses are dangerous because the sun can come out from behind the moon and "surprise you" before you have a chance to look away. And this is actually even worse than when you normally look away from the sun because during the total eclipse, it is dark out, and your pupil therefore dilates so that it can let in enough light to get a good picture. Then, when the sun reappears and starts flooding the area with really bright light, not only are you staring straight at it, but your eye is in a state where it is wide open, and actively trying to let in as much light as possible. This explains why it is easy to damage your eye when watching a total solar eclipse, and why you should either be sure to time it very carefully (and allow for a good margin of error), or just view the thing through one of those sets of cheap "dark" glasses they sell for the express purpose of looking at the sun without getting hurt.

So who is all going to the Muskie Odyssey this coming weekend the 29 th of April?? Should a great time as usual!!

Yeah the nighty..... Hitting on ya at 4 AM.

HAHAHAHAHA she was awesome.

Awesome engines those mercs, Mine has saved my butt many many times.

LOL exit right for the laffs in the first round. FORE!!!! And yeah Crosby can be a very dirty player. What Cherry showed in not correct. Crosby slashed his left hand and it was the pinky finger not the index finger. He should have been ejected for that retaliation.

Thanks Brian, hope that all is well with you.

I fill up quite often at the Ancaster Costco and prices are always good there. Last I saw was 91.6 for regular. The savings in gas alone has paid for my membership card.

Keep the flame going LT.

Boy lots has changed since I joined back in 2000. Yeah it used to be OF(N) before we went the way of communities. Funny thing is that we were a much closer community then than we are today.

3 times a day....

Tybo!! I am so shocked to hear this that it floored me!! SO SO sad that the gal of the old board OFNgroup is no longer with us. There were so many good times with her over the years. My deepest thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. SO sad
