  1. Anyone notice the natural erosion of the rock on the foreground. In the painting, there is a little sappling growing there, but the crack is small. The photo shows the ice had forced the little crack into a big fissure.

     

    How old is that painting?

    I don't know the exact age of the painting. But I will look to see if I can find a date on it anywhere.

     

    The angles are not quite right on the photo to the painting. I am going to go back in the fall and get an exact shot... But yes, that crack has opened up a lot!

     

    not sure where pretty channel is but from the snap shot to me it looks like a spot I use to fish on six mile. If so there is a waterfall up more and a couple little docks on either side of the outflow,it was part of the PP and had a campsite on one side. Good fishing there.

     

    The area has really fallen apart to he honest with you. The campsites are not maintained by the PP. They are full of broken glass and garbage. There are people there every weekend. And the fishing has gone down hill drastically in the last 10 - 15 years. I have been skunked the last 5 times I was there.

     

    The docks where removed at least 15 years ago. Last year someone left a sunken boat sitting at one of the prime docking spots....

     

    It's sad really.

     

    But it's still one of my favorite spots to go anchor and swim.

  2. I can clearly see why it didn't take off.

     

    Even if that trailer was made out of the lightest composites of the time, once loaded with camping gear and the family for a weeks vacation.... No way that bug would be able to stop for red lights...

     

    The concept if very cool though.

  3. What Drifter said..

     

    Just make sure you set it in place good and tight.

     

    I also use one of my mooring ropes, and give it a few wraps around the motor mounting base.....Just in case something breaks, and it falls off.. I don't want it to end up through someone windshield behind me.

     

    The motor part is the heaviest, down by the prop. So I always try to get that as close the mounting bracket as possible when tailoring. Least amount of stress on the plastic mounting bracket.

  4. I have a friend with one, and they love him. But like others have said, lots of hair!

     

    Not sure about the recalling them to Norway.. Good luck with that... No way in hell someone would come to my house and take my dog... Why would they ever want to do that in the first place? Seems very odd to me...

     

    So when Canada goes to war, are we going to take all the beavers and maple syrup from all the other countries? :^)

  5. Does buckshot or SSGs have enough "umpf" for a bear? I wouldn't think so personally as I have seen the result with deer.

    Sure... If your close enough.

     

    I would not take a 40 yard shot at a bear with buckshot and expect it to drop dead...

  6. Wow.

     

    Thanks for sharing that.

     

    "something that was kept ''secret'' a story of pure stupidity"

     

    I could not imagine the feeling of being on or near water, knowing I could not swim. And the fact that you jumped in the water, knowing you could not swim. What the hell man..... I bet you've been flamed really really hard over the years be people when you tell them that story! Rightfully so. One of the stupidest things I have ever herd in my life...
