My blades are usually good for two seasons with a regular 2 minute touch up after each outing.

Congratulations "Grampa", and that title is one to be proud of. Enjoy.

That is a hell of a lot of Mountain Dew, you might say a mountain of it. Surprised they didn't use Schlitz or some other redneck beer.
Seen one last year from Heineken cans displayed at a bar. Mind it did not have lights.

I fail ta make the connection between"Acadian Driftwood" and the song's message which is coming home after some war.
It refers back to the French & Indian Wars and the Acadian expulsion that resulted from the English victory. Think Louisbourg and "Evangeline"

Hark, Hark, did you hear the latest news. Elizabeth ( ex Yank) Mays was embarresed to be a Canadian.http://pelalusa.blogspot.com/2008/12/elizabeth-may-embarrassed-to-be.html
If its fat, and feels comfortable. Maybe its a Senator. I'm a Global Warning Alarmist, just like a Big three Auto Alarmist. Come on down. Saskatchewan is minus 40 but the sun is Shining and nobody is crying. Lots of jobs.
Remember while your shoveling, every scoop is improving your SLACK and IDEL BODY
That last comment reminds me of a D.I. from Cornwallis " Thank you Master Corporal for building my weak body and feeble mind"
I love winter. Bring on the snow.

Any fish is great when served up in Gram's famous "Fishhead Soup". Of course Gram would always lecture me and remind me to bring home a pike for the soup.
As for table fare, panfish and pike.

Most of the ponds I know in Niagara had lost most of their ice with the rain. Nothing safe to my knowledge.

Hello and welcome.

Not all deer are large in their stature. Whereas the red deer is a very large and majestic creature in size and stature, the fallow deer would be a 1/2 it's size. A fallow doe might reach 40" at the shoulder, more likely 32-36". A fawn even smaller.
I agree that no creature at 150lb is going to show so little impact damage to the car, but a fawn?

In our household, what won't we be feasting on over the holidays?
Because our Christmas is a month long celebration, it is difficult to list all the food we will stuff ourselves with. Might need a couple of pages.
Dec. 6th was an open house with sil, swedish meatballs, devilled eggs, slaw, potato salad, pickled everything, and a mountain of fish. Desert was trifle, ice cream cake and X-mas cookies.
Tonight we have roast beef, baked chicken, baked squash, creamed peas, boiled new potatoes.
and in the week up to Christmas there is a special dish every day. Prime rib on the 25th. Turkey on the 26th. and a glazed ham Jan 1st.

My wife spent 3 weeks in the "house" at McMaster, during one of our daughter's surgeries. I have nothing but good to say about the charity. Back then it was 2 dollars a day with access to a stocked kitchen. You needed to bring in some perishable groceries.
Even back then, we could not have hoped to afford hotels for 3 weeks for my wife, or cafeteria and restaurant meals for that length of time. Hotels were not a good option either as they weren't near to the hospital.
They allowed the wife to be at hand for my daughter at all times, and staff there bent over backwards to help in any way they could. What more could I say, a great support for parents.

What is life without love and laughter. In these times we need them more than ever.
Despite all that happens around us, we have lives to live out. What point is there if we do not have hope in a better tommorrow. Make do and enjoy the blessings you have. Despite all the bad things that are going on in our family's life we are still here together, loving each other, and having a laugh or two when we can, and we know that there is always the promise of tommorrow.
Having said all that, I need some feel good music.

Lions Clubs in our area raise funds through telethons and local fundraisers throughout the year. When delivering the turkey, the food vouchers and baskets of toys for the children the smiles on the faces of the less fortunate make the time spent working throughout the year all worthwhile.
So Santa does do his deeds through us all in some way.
Area Lions are busy helping community care package Christmas for 320 families this season.

Make sure you break out your heart medication after that meal!
My cholesterol levels have been excellent the past year so no problem there. Mind, I only get the red meat once a week.
