Came across this article in yesterdays Peterboro paper. Looks like it could be but it's not a great picture so who knows ? https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CBwQFjAAahUKEwj5tdady5DJAhVEGR4KHdKbC2c&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thepeterboroughexaminer.com%2F2015%2F11%2F13%2Fwoman-thinks-a-cougar-was-on-her-property-on-cedar-valley-road-near-fraserville&usg=AFQjCNG5XlPEHzaUuLGbc5iKJrEdP3BwWA

Let's not forget guys, there's lots of BIG muskies in GBay and plenty of guys do very well at catching them. You just need to know where they are. Graham Bristow is a perfect example. https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CBwQFjAAahUKEwj7yJ-ixY3JAhWJXB4KHa25ARs&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ontariomusky.com%2FYour_Guide.html&usg=AFQjCNFHE3ZjrWFsPgQr5suZM7gEd1PoIg -

If you get out that way again Pete have Mike take you for a Philly Cheese Steak, you won't need to eat again for a week LOL -
That'd be a great show to see Will I used to enjoy seeing that old plane flying around Toronto during the Ex and sadly haven't seen it since I moved to the boonies.

Took a lot of guts for those guys to face the U Boats basically unarmed. My dad was on convoy escort so who knows, maybe both our dad's even sailed in the same convoys so long ago.

I'm always amazed at some of the comments made on this board.

Good to see you boys finally got into one Wayne. -
My dad served 5 years in the Navy during the war & his brother Bill served 5 years in the Army. Their dad, my grandfather, was a sniper with the British Army fighting in the trenches of France in the 1st war and told me unimaginable stories of things he saw. He was wounded by shrapnel but made it through. Moms brother was a bomber pilot and was killed along with his entire crew when their plane went down. As mentioned earlier in this post another uncle serving with the British Army was captured in Burma and was tortured relentlessly by the Japanese. They were beaten every day with chains and rifle butts for no reason and received one cup of rice a day for the entire time he was a prisoner. Several other great uncles also served in WW1 I'm always extremely proud of what my family has done to help keep good people safe. Dad home on leave in the early 40's And the ship Dad served on, HMCS KITCHENER My grandfather lived a long & happy life after the horrors of trench warfare. Moms brother flying airmail across Ontario before becoming a bomber pilot and being killed fighting the Germans.

I don't know of another company with as good customer service anywhere Bill. I live not too far from them and have been in twice this year for service on reels and both times it was done while I waited and no charge and it doesn't get any better than that.

I was born in '46 Paul, right after the war, and most of my folks friends were veterans and growing up I was always around them so it was just a natural progression for me to join the Navy. Not many of those old vets left these days, on either side of our border.
-
Paul, my dad was Navy for 5 years during the war and most of the men in my family fought but probably the worst stories came from an uncle who was in a Japanese prison camp in Burma for a couple years. The horror stories he told us made it hard to believe what some humans could do to others to inflict as much pain as possible.
-
Paul, I've seen several of those episodes on TV and your right, it's really amazing...and terrifying...what those guys went through.

That's always good to watch every year.

Here's a very simple and cheap camera mount jimmer and one that works very well. Just a wooden dowel the same size as a seat post hole in your deck and build a little box on top. Set the camera in the box and when your ready to lift the fish out of the net, hit the timer & smile. With a bit of practice you can get pretty decent pictures when your alone in the boat.
-
Sadly yes.

I've always liked the idea of putting people in charge of ministries who actually know something about them and having a combat veteran as Minister of Defense sounds real good to me. Never could understand having someone heading a department who knows nothing about it.

Attaboy jimmer, you done good !!

A quick GOOGLE check brought this up Shaun. https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCUQFjACahUKEwjt4ObZoO_IAhXG_R4KHROmAsw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.obd-codes.com%2Fp0420&usg=AFQjCNHd7t8ZMIKonkCe1ZPS3hklrOz-9g

I don't drink and have never used any drugs of any kind but have known lots of guys over the years that smoked joints and have never seen a problem with it. Seen far too many guys get nasty on booze & want to fight everybody in the room but never saw it with anyone smoking marijuana. It's always seem pretty darned hypocritical to me that you can legally buy all the booze you want but grass is illegal. Makes perfect sense to me that you should be able to go into a store and buy it just like you can buy booze.

These aren't mine but were done today by a friend of my daughters.

Outstanding job on the pumpkins !! There's no kids on this road so no trick-or-treaters, so any candy in this house gets eaten by your's truly.
