  1. It is simple and focuses more on the scenery and less on the fishing. Its a nice change and it showcases our far north quite nicely.
  2. Good for all of you!!!! I have packed a bunch of weight on during my chemo. I'm on some heavy steroids that have really cranked up my appetite. I can't wait for this to be over so I can start my own weight loss plan. Its called keep yer dang mouth shut after 7:30pm. Only water after then. No sweets and reasonable portions of food. That combined with lots of walking seems to do the trick for me. 30 push ups, 30 leg raises and 30 sit ups for muscle tone once some weight comes off. And the drs orders, 1000 casts for muskies once a week.
  3. I guess your piece shoots straight. Nice going. Coyotes and wolves getting close in the country are a nuisance and a danger to livestock, not very great if you are a farmer. Easy for people in the city to poo poo shooting them until one of them kills rover or injures their kid or worse. Just dont let the skin go to waste. It should make you a nice little rug for your bedside so when you get up in the morning, you step on a warm skin and not a cold floor.
  4. Hopefully she doesn't blow up real good. Drop some gas line antifreeze in and hopefully she is good to go.
  5. I'm with Bill. Chances are that in running it right down, you plugged up the pickup which is a very fine filter. You should think about pulling the pump and cleaning the pickup sock and changing the fuel filter. Hopefully this will get you going again. If not, you already know the answer.
  6. Nice ride!! I was planning on getting a bike this year but more of a big heavy cruiser. There's always next year. Enjoy it.
  7. Baby steps. He is moving slowly in the right direction and that is what counts.
  8. Grey wolf where'd you book in honey harbour? Reason I ask is I had a trailer there for a few years and I can give you a couple of suggestions of where to go fish. Pm me if interested. Lunatic, there is a reason there is a OFC get together at Lakair every year. I am hoping to go in the next year or two.
  9. Happy bday Jen!!! She is doing great!! Keep on trucking!!!
  10. You can't use kerosene in them. Unleaded would work but be careful, for the amount of fuel it uses, just get the Coleman fuel.
  11. I would have said support Lloyd a fellow ofnr. But, it would be tight, no fun. Try Eddie of Square Tail charters out of Port Credit, he is a great guy and gets into the bigguns.
  12. It is a day out during the winter. Deals can be had to a certain extent, you just have to see who will give you the best price on a given item. I agfee that the days of the smoking deals are done with the advent of online stores. Get out see whats out and have fun.
  13. 1000-3500 depending on the park, location, size of lot, trailer, hydro. Lots of variables. We were at a small park with 9 trailers in HH that was awesome for our family. It was a community and I will miss that. My girls will remember that trailer and place fondly for the rest of their lives.
  14. I did the test in Honey Harbour 4 years ago. I set the record, I was done in under 10 mins and only got two wrong. I had only skimmed the study guide and never really read in in depth. The cute young things that were there selling the test could not believe it. It is pretty much a joke.
  15. Atta girl Jen! Good for you. I'm going in for chemo tomorrow. It may be my last treatment or I may be going in for 2 more after tomorrow, I find out around noon.
  16. Sorry to hear about this. Your son and his friend are in my prayers.
  17. Wayne, Jen is in my thoughts and prayers today. I wish you guys all the luck in the world.
  18. Very nice Lew!! We are kicking around the idea of putting a propane stove in the basement of the cottage to keep things semi warm and dry during the winter months. At least you don't need to keep the fire stoked all night long on these cold winter nights.
  19. Dealing with docs isn't easy at the best of times. I'm waiting on a CT scan to see if I'm in the clear with regards to my lymph nodes and organs. If I am, I've got 1 more chemo treatment to go then maintenance treatments once every 3 months.
  20. At least now you know when and it is quick. I hope and pray that the surgery goes well for Jen.
  21. Good for you. I'm hoping to do mine later this spring and get out deer hunting this fall.
  22. Losing weight is all about making healthier choices for yourself. I have found the best way is to not eat anything after 8pm, cut down the amount of starchs I eat and stay away from fast food. The best advice was given to me by a cardiologist regarding vegetables, eat all you want of veggies that grow above the ground, limit your intake of those that grow below the ground. Stay away from WHITE, whether it be bread, sugar or potatoes. Good luck fellas.
  23. My experiences with Home Hardware have been pretty good whether it was in Gravenhurst, up in Kenora or Port Hope. The service was far superior to Home Depot. HD may have better pricing than HH on some items BUT the help and service outweighs price in most instances. They may not always have a lot of stock on many items but they can always order something in. As for your recent visit, a new tank has to be purged before it can be filled. That adds to the cost of your fill.
  24. Chartreuse single tail and smoke single tail.
  25. That must have been scary waiting for the test results. I lost a bunch of weight last year and it turned out to be the big C. For a thyroid problem, you would probably be on meds for quite a while. Dont worry about taking those pesky little pills, think of that little bundle of joy.
