  1. I just got off the phone with the local fire department.

     

    I do need a permit, and it is free. Thanks for the reminder guys!

     

    In my area, I'm allowed to have "recreational fires" as long as my pit is 2' x 2' or smaller, and I burn clean wood, or nothing that will make excessive smoke.

     

    Good to know.

  2. there is a bylaw about open flame

     

    Thanks Ron, I assumed cuz I'm in the country, that I can do what ever i want. I'll read up on the bi-laws.

     

     

    Don't leave that beer so close to the fire next time :o;):lol:

    They don't last long enough to get warm! ;)

  3. I moved in to my new house a few weeks ago. The previous owners had a steel barrel that they used to burn stuff in. I thought it was a great idea. But they took it with them when they moved :dunno:

     

    I've been trying to find a free barrel, but the best I could find was $50 from Barrie Metals.

     

    This weekend, Brian hooked me up with a free one!!

     

    And my timing was perfect too. When I went to pick it up, Brian had just finished cooking dinner, and offered me some. Man, that was some of the best tasting seafood linguine I've ever had. :thumbsup_anim: Lobster, Shrimp, Alfredo sauce...Mouth watering!!

     

    Thanks again Brian!

  4. I was talking to the owner of the Rack and Reel yesterday. She said that her bait supplier got some sort of notice about VHS. He hasn't gotten a letter yet saying that he can't sell minnows, but is expecting one. I guess they are talking about making Lake Simcoe a "zone" where minnows that are harvested locally, can only be sold locally.

     

    Of coarse, like TJ said, it doesn't stop the consumer from taking them where ever they want..

     

    I also herd, that the MNR is really going to crack down on the 120 minnow Max. law this year.

  5. Dam Bruce. Peanuts gunna be feeling that one for while. Those looks like some serious cuts.

     

    I'm glad things turned out alright, and peanut's gunna pull through. Let us know how it works out with the vet bills eh.

     

    I went home last night, after reading your post, and played fetch with my little dog for a good hour or so..

  6. Man, that's horrible Bruce.

     

    I'm sending my best wishes in peanuts way.

     

    Dog attacks happen very fast, it's tough to react quick enough. It sounds like you did all that you could do.

     

    You need a stronger cane!

     

    I don't want to open a can of worms, but did you press charges? Or can you?

  7. Has anyone tried the anchors that they suggest.?

     

    Not the ones that come with it.. They actually said in the instructions that they anchors supplied are for temporary use only. They suggest you buy their anchor kit. :wallbash:

  8. Before:

    I cleaned up, and roped off a 10 x 20 area of the bush. Fit just in between some big trees. I only ended up having to cut down 2 small trees.

     

    After:

    It only took about 4 hours. Went together very easily. I just have to straighten it out a little, then anchor it down. I think I'm going to make my own anchors out of re-bar.

  9. I've said it before in similar posts. I don't donate money to random causes, no mater how great they may be.

     

    I donate my time as a volunteer to support my local community directly. That gives me way more warm and fuzzies then donating a toonie every time I check out.
