    Bookends

    I think those 2 girls were a bit surprised to see me standing at the back door of the garage only 50' away
  3. Have a great trip Cliff. Some of our best vacations have been road trips with no destination or timeline.
  4. Good stuff Mike !!
  5. Shows just how easily a fun day can sometimes turn nasty. Good to hear your bud was away from the hut when she blew Chris.

  7. Everything seems good over my way too Cliff, infact several homes on my road has their tanks filled up just this past Friday. Hopefully it stays this way.
  8. Ya don't need to live in the Arctic to freeze your stach Enjoy your vacation down south Dave, I'm sure your more than ready for some sun & warm temps after the winter you fellas are having up there.
  9. Yup, that's exactly what I was talking about Josh, great video !!
  10. My Grandparents had a waterfront home up in the NW corner of Simcoe back in the 60's and I remember one spring day when the ice was starting to break up and there was a real strong wind from the south east. We stood on shore watching the ice move towards us and move right up onto shore and pile up about 10' or so. Anything in it's path was destroyed including several boathouse and whatever else was in the way. I remember thinking how impressive the incredible power was but also pretty darned scary at the same time. Not much can stop Mother Nature when she's on a mission.
  11. But at least I had company when I couldn't find the Northern Lights
  12. Wish I was out doing this with my Yamaha right now.
  13. Sad news Brian, that sorta thing is really tough.
  14. We had some clear skies last evening but couldn't see the lights and now it's snowing so I spose I'm outta luck this time around.
  15. Excellent Brian, very nice job !!
  16. Very nice work indeed Christopher !!
  17. Pete, you've got mail and Wayne, it says you can't receive anymore.
  18. As soon as the snow arrives each year I get a pile of deer in the backyard every day without fail and I always enjoy watching them. This morning I had 10 of them show up and I took a couple pictures. There's a huge buck with a large rack that comes every couple days but he stays back in the trees and I haven't been able to get a good picture of him yet but I keep trying. Not real sharp but it's only a P&P camera.
  19. T-Bone, I think that's possibly the best reply to any thread I've ever seen posted on this board....well said my man !!
  20. Wish I could answer your question but I honestly have no idea, although it's a huge tank so it should last quite awhile. Even if it did start running low I'd just have to call the propane supplier and they'd come top it off. They have their own generator system so that'd be no problem.
  21. OK Cliff, looks as if the price has really taken a huge jump in the 24 months since I had my system installed. Wish I had more to offer you.
  22. Cliff, I only payed $5800 including installation, transfer panel and taxes for a 10,000 watt unit and that is more than enough for my home. It easily runs my furnace, water and sump pump, fridge and freezer, lights, computer and TV's and my garage plus just about anything else I need. I've tested it several times turning everything on and it does just fine. I asked them if I should bump up to a 17,000 watt system and was assured it wasn't needed. Call the Generator Center in Peterboro...705-931-0938 Great folks to deal with. My neighbor just revamped his home and wanted a big 1500 litre tank like I have but was told the same as you, that it needed to be away from the house, but he was able to get 2 smaller tanks set right beside his house. I'm not sure what size they are....maybe 400 litres each ?? I deal with Kelly's propane and their great. They delivered and installed my large tank and hooked up the propane lines for free and I only pay something like $2 per month for the rental.
  23. I've had both and their both good motors.
  24. I don't watch much organized sports but when I do, I always like to see the military there, both Canadian and American, taking part on the opening ceremonies and the military pageantry IMHO adds alot to the program. But being ex-military, perhaps I'm biased.
  25. I don't know anything about the American military Art, but in the Canadian Military you come to attention no matter who's National Anthem is being played.
