  1. While your trailer may be in mint shape, it's 21 years old and many if not most parks want newer trailers, I know ours wants trailers less than 10 years old.
  2. Although I did not agree with his politics, I respected him as a politician. My condolences go out to his family.
  3. My condolences to you and your family. Facebook isn't the problem, it's the people who are on it. I hope this sister in law gets the message and doesn't pull this sort of nonsense again, it is pretty callous of her and is telling of the kind of person she is. I see lots of cold shoulders in her future.
  4. An OFC'r has a trailer on site on either Couchiching or Simcoe, I don't remember, it's a pretty good deal for a nice modern trailer. Check the classifieds.
  5. Minimum $12/hr, probably max $15/hr. It's a small retail setting and there aren't a lot of extra dollars to toss around.
  6. That was a pretty little downtown area. Too bad, most of the old buildings will have to come down now. The power of Mother Nature is just simply astounding.
  7. Great report Lew!!! I guess I have to put the West Arm on my bucket list.
  8. Just think about all the time you have now to fish!! Enjoy your retirement!! If you get bored, do some side jobs for small engines..... Keep yourself busy is all I can recommend.
  9. They must have been overextended on their Line of Credit or they fell behind in payments. Whatever happened, it's too bad for the employees, hopefully they didn't get shafted too badly. There are a few props there that I'd be interested in but don't really need and the price is going to be driven up so I'm out. Now if they had a nice Volvo Penta Dual Prop lower unit........
  10. Nice 'eyes!!! Awesome night guys!! Not only did you guys have great numbers but great size too!!! Way to Go!!
  11. Let us know, I'm kicking around the idea of putting one in next year.
  12. Great combo that you will enjoy for many years. I love my old school white Stradic 2500.
  13. Everybody forgets the plug, ONCE!
  14. It's due for plugs. Run that Carbonguard through it and don't troll when you are trying to clean out the engine!!! Let it breathe.......
  15. I don't get that far out that I worry about a second bilge pump. If the boat is leaky, don't go far!! It's only common sense. I've got a buddy who has a 20yr old 18ft aluminum that we call the Titanic cuz it's seen the bottom 3 times (thankfully tied up at the dock). He's getting the leaking rivets welded but the worst thing is that he has pulled all the old foam out and has no intentions of replacing it. I won't be going out on GBay in this thing, one big wave and that thing goes straight to the bottom. I've told him about filling the voids with at least a bunch of 2l pop bottles and he won't even go for that. You can lead a horse to the water but you can't make him drink it...........
  16. Don't go calling Sirloin 'cheap'!! It would make for a tastier steak than fillet since it has some more fat content. Just a bit of garlic salt and a touch of black pepper is all you need on a nice steak. Now you are making me hungry and it's bedtime!
  17. Probably no more than 20-40 bucks.
  18. Send it in to Shimano to get reworked.
  19. Stickshift and Clutch strike again!! I'd be a bit perturbed at having them approach in street clothes and in an aggressive manner. I hope you got their badge numbers and you should report their behaviour to MNR. Just because they have a badge doesn't mean they can act like that. I understand that they have a difficult job to do but at least they have a good well paying gov't job. At least you guys were 'clean' (and I don't mean your undies).
  20. Beautiful Fish!!!! Gorgeous pattern on them!!
  21. NICE!!! I'm hoping to get my girls out this weekend for a couple hours of fishing this weekend out on GBAY.
  22. What about calling one of the used Japanese parts guys out there?? An auto salvage yard?? The car is older and it's no sense in spending big bucks on repairs. Keep it running half decently, at that age, it doesn't owe you anything.
  23. Nice to get out and spend some time with the family. And, you got some fishing in!!!
