WOOHOO!!!!!!!

 

Whoo-Hee! I smell a good old fashioned OFC barn raisin' in the makin' here!! Come one come all (especially if you're Mennonite or Amish!), let's git er done!!

 

 

If'n I git started by the end of the month, me and the Conestoga waggin should git thar by June.

Ya'll c'mon up!!!

I'll fire up the still!!!!

-36 windchill tonight. OW!!

Up here that is pretty much every day between December & March!!!

Suck it up buttercup!!!!

Yellowknife to T.O. just to see Mary-Ann???

It would be a side trip from the steelhead waters.

If I can't afford to pay off a vehicle in 60 months I'm not buying it.

I did the 10 year route on my boat though. But I still have it after nearly 24 years.

Just kiddin' buddy.

Lets hope all goes well for you and the fam in 2015.

I'm pulling for ya Wayne!

 

Yeah, don't waste your time it's a lost cause!!!!!

I would go just to see Dawn Wells.

Still lookin' fine after all these years,

Those Caravan's are nice planes.

We used them up @ the lodge on Bear on turnover days to shuttle guests to the main lodge.

One year there was a group that came up to the main lodge with their own Caravan on floats.

The inside was all spiffy with leather etc. The flew out to different areas of the lake each day and had a pair of inflatables with outboards. Would love to be able to do that.

My goal is to get my 24x36 1/2 loft cabin framed and dried in.

Hopefully I can get a friend or two to lend a hand.

Doing it solo will probably kill me!!!!

-28 with -36 windchill here.

We have plenty of ice and a good snow base for sledding.

 

There aren't many rivers out there that are free of man made obstructions, let mother nature do her thing.

Did they remove the dams in Baxter and on the Pine.

Pretty sure they are obstructions and were probably man made.

OH, and please never stock steelhead in the Notty.

It is a special and unique strain that should never be polluted with inferior genes.

 

lol Still nothing wrong with watching bass shows! There aren't any actic char around here but I'll watch a show about them any day! I'll dream of catching them you can dream about catching bass...deal?

 

 

I just find bass fishing shows about as exciting as watching paint dry or grass grow Ryan!!!

Ended up going with the Samsung Plasma...60"...1080P...smart...3D...and I am glad I did it looks awesome and a heck of a deal at 849 bucks!!!

You won't be sorry. Plasma is way better than LCD/LED. IMHO

Just wish my Panasonic was bigger.

I will tune in for the trout shows for sure.

I don't watch bass fishing however.

Not a bass to be found anywhere near me.

While ice fishing you could save 400 bux on a floater suit with that truck!

Be even better with a set of tracks for the winter.

Anyone got $155K they can lend me?

Can't wait fer the goalie brawl in the 3rd!!!!

I think the Leafs watched the Canada game today.

It's still redonkulous!!!! Don't pull up on this door handle or it will break. To open the hood you need two people and two screwdrivers. And you get to wait a minute and a half for the fuel door to open.

​Stupid that you can't open the hood. That means you need to make an appointment to have the coolant level checked.

 

The X5 is a BMW SUV that comes with a diesel, same with the Audi Q7 and the Audi Q5   I've been running diesel vehicles for about 15 years or so (All VW TDI's)..   I have one, my parents do as well, as does my sister.  I'm the resident family mechanic, lol!    You really can't compare the old diesels with the ones you can buy today, way more power, a lot cleaner, etc.  Sure they have their problems (Like all cars do) but for me at least the positives outweigh the negatives.   My last TDi had 600,000kms on it before I retired it, my current wagon has close to 400,000kms with no signs of letting up yet.  

 

Keep your eye open for the new GMC Canyon in 2016 with the 2.8 Duramax, should be quite the truck! 

After watching this video of the BMW i8 I can honestly say there is no way I will ever own a BMW.

The designers were obiusly on crack when they came up with this design.      

Yeah, go back and try some on. Guessing is not the way to go.

When I lived in Grand Valley I just walked down to my pond with a shovel. Instant rink!!!
