I sent my picture to a photo studio in town and they say because most of the colour has washed out there's not enough definition left to do anything with the picture.

Thanks Brian, we'll be celebrating our 54th wedding anniversary in 2 months.

Well, look at the gorgeous lady who has her arm wrapped around me, who wouldn't smile ? 😀

Terry's done some of mine too Norm and he does excellent work but I also need to get it enlarged quite a bit but still keep it as sharp as possible so I thought an actual photo studio may be the best bet. There's a place down in Peterboro I'm gonna contact and see what they say..

I was going through some old pictures yesterday that I haven't seen in years and came across this one of my wife and I that was taken more 50 years ago. The images have faded badly, the color is mostly gone and there's wrinkles in the picture. It's a great picture and I would like to get it fixed up with the color restored, the images made visible again and even the wrinkles somehow photoshopped out. Also the photograph is only about 2" x 3" and it'd be nice if it could be enlarged to maybe 5 x 7 or even larger. Is this something that's possible for a good photography studio to be able to repair ?

Because of so many jerks causing problems the Crown Land around Burleigh Falls has no been closed off to the public. Besides all the garbage left on the land and the vandalism to properties, there's even been reports of people crapping on the front lawn of homeowners. https://www.thepeterboroughexaminer.com/news/peterborough-region/2020/07/09/burleigh-falls-in-peterborough-county-closed-to-public-after-complaints.html#:~:text=Burleigh Falls in Peterborough County closed to public after complaints,-By Marissa Lentz&text=The Ministry of Natural Resources,the public until further notice.&text=Joe Ayotte said there were,enforcing the closure on Thursday. I'm fortunate to live only 2 miles from Burleigh Falls and the place is absolutely gorgeous and it's so hard to believe the way some people treat these beautiful spots and the more it continues the more spots will be closed off. How can anyone be such a jerk to intentionally destroy such a beautiful spot ?

Probably only by a few feet LOL

Back in my Navy days we were sailing from Halifax to Charlottetown and took a shortcut thru the Canso Causeway between Nova Scotia & Cape Breton and banged the ship right into the end of the jetty. No real damage but pretty embarrassing with all the tourists watching us.

Or else a "Keep off my Deck" sign LOL

Turds were full of red berries Brian, that's one of their staples.
-
Sure they do, but they also poop on back decks just like they did on mine last night LOL Just a little guy but he was only 15' from the bedroom door. Bears are common around here and they're seen often but this was my closest visitor so far and hopefully he doesn't bring his whole clan around next time.

The smile on the little guys face tells the whole story !! I never caught a bowfin, infact don't think I've ever even seen one but they sure look like they could give you a real tussle.

What a great way to spend a day with your son and congrats to him on a couple very decent fish.
-
I fished the Kawarthas since the 50's and and also a LOT of time on Quinte plus Lake St. Clair , the Ottawa and St. Lawrence Rivers but my favorite place of all is chasing muskies on the West Arm of Nippissing. I got out of fishing a couple years back and sold everything including my boat but a small group of us still go to Nip every year and rent a couple cabins and have as much fun as always.
-
Looking for a used fishing boat and some advice
lew replied to FishFinder17's topic in General Discussion
Nice fish and a great way to break in a new boat, that 1st bit of musky slime is a charm !! -
Atta boy Bill, real purty fish and congrats on the PB.

Congratulations on your retirement Brian, it's a milestone we all look forward to. I've been retired 20 years now and have never regretted taking early retirement once, you just have to keep busy and don't ever let yourself get bored. I start every day with a 4 mile walk at sunrise, 365 days a year and after breakfast I get busy and if I don't have a job to do I invent one LOL Enjoy the time you've earned bud, you've got a whole new life ahead of you. For years on this board my signature said "when your retired, every day is Saturday morning".

And make sure you have a lug wrench that fits the trailer wheels because the one for your truck may not.

47" is a very impressive pike, congratulations to your wife !!
-
Thank you, she'll be going home soon.

My daughter is currently in Toronto Western Hospital on the 9th floor and sent me this picture she took at sunrise this morning and just thought I'd share .

Give Burleigh Island Lodge a call, they're just a few miles north of Youngs Point and last time I was there they had cabins for rent plus docking. No idea what it's like right now but it's a nice place is they can accommodate you.
-
Finally, we get to share a bit of family time
lew replied to misfish's topic in Non-Outdoors Open Discussion
Awesome story Brian and good to hear you got to spend some well deserved time together. -
I have a roadside pond on my front lawn every year when the snow melts but the only thing that lives in it are ducks LOL

Actually 10 pounds per Imperial gallon here in Canada Paul
