Sounds like you're having a good time as usual Connie! Looking forward to being able to join you again one of these years, lol! And isn't Whopper just good for spaghetti and meatballs?

Wishing your family all the best through this Wayne. This story makes my ride participation all the more worthwhile!!!

I am sorry to hear about your situation Wayne, it is not a fun thing for a loved one to go through.

Thanks everyone, and a big thanks again to Joey & Paul and Roy for their donations so far!!!

Hello everyone,

I have been a member here for years, but rarely get to post anymore because of a job that keeps me out on the road and away from the computer. Perhaps a blessing in disguise?

With the permission of my dear friend Roy, I have decided to post here to ask for your help in my participation in the 2013 Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer. In June of 2013 I will be participating in a two-day, 200km ride from Toronto to Niagara Falls. The proceeds of the ride benefit the Princess Margaret Hospital, one of the top 5 cancer research centres in the world.

I realize that it seems rather early to be asking for donations, but I have set my personal fundraising goal at $3,200 (with each rider required to provide a minimum of $2,500 in donations). With your help, I hope to achieve, and even exceed, my personal goal. Cancer is a disease that affects so many, and I would like to thank you all in advance for any donations, no matter how small, you can contribute to this worthy cause!

To donate to the ride, please visit http://to13.conquercancer.ca, you can click 'Donate' and then search for my name under participants. Another way to donate is to go to my personal page at http://www.conquercancer.ca/site/TR/Events/Toronto2013?px=3128702&pg=personal&fr_id=1431 and donate from there.

Wishing everyone the best,

Sandy Turk

Ran into a good old (and I mean old...lol) friend from the board today! It was great seeing you Ron and catching up a bit. Too bad work gets in the way, haha! Glad to see you are still starting poopy in the lovely 'Burg!!!

Happy Birthday my dear friend!!! I haven't been on the board in forever and a day, I guess it must be fate that I logged on just in time to wish you a very happy birthday, I hope that you get all that you wish for and deserve!!! Hopefully we can meet up at the end of August!!!

PT -> Dam dog? Yes! Rockin' name? Yes!

Phil, I heard you guys were heading up there again. Very jealous! Don't know what I'll miss more, the pasta, or the fishing! LOL! Best of luck to ya's, I hope you don't get snowed in again!

Chrissy, I miss ya like crazy! We need to stop by for a visit sometime soon to catch up the next time we're both up Hamilton way.

TJ! Stranger! Hope all is well with Monique and the kids, please give them my best!

Pete, hope all is well! It's been a long time since I saw you last!

Mike...hmmm... yes... does seem as though I am in fact getting left out quite a bit! Guess at least one of us has to work while the other plays!

Roy, I missed you dearly this past year! I will hopefully be able to see you this year, if not, may have to make a special trip down on my days off for a visit!

Philly, I hope everything is going well with the fam!

Joey, I hope Paul is still taking good care of ya, and visa versa!

gbfisher, thanks for the invite. Increasing odds is probably all I'm good for, lol!

Ronnie, how irritating was that? I thought the damn van was never gonna move! But of course it would be wrong to speed...

Misfish, I heard Adam ran into you. Believe it or not I didn't get out onto the ice once this year. All work and no play makes Sandy a dull girl. All work and no play makes Sandy a dull girl. All work...

IrishWayne who?

Damn Bruins just scored!

Hello old strangers! Just thought I would pop in to say hello and see how many of my old buds are still hanging out here! I rarely get on the computer anymore, thus my absence for quite some time!!!

Sandy

I am so sorry to hear about your dad Phil, I just heard about this. I hope everyone is doing ok.

Hey Phil,

I am sorry to hear that you had to get rid of Wyatt, and also sorry that I saw this post a few days too late. We have been thinking about getting a companion for Dax and Wyatt would have been great. If I didn't know better, I'd say the two of them were twins!!!

Sandy

Again I apologize to the whole moderators ice cabin while at Nippissing for firing up the jiffy beside TJ's window at 3am, it was really Graftongal.

Ah huh! Sure, blame the innocent! So I guess it was me at the Mosey who....... ahh....... nevermind!!!

How's it going Motown Philly? Hope the City is still treating you good!

Parking right at the restaurant?

Thanks guys,

13" Grandma, 2.1 mph, crunching bottom in 16' dropped off into 20' and she ate, bait was probably 17' down. Thanks for posting Mark. The other two fish caught are beauties also.

Adam

Does this mean that Adam has to bring his in September?

It's Frampton guys. Frampton is the only guy I know who would hang with Stewart, Scruggs and Nelson.

I just want to know who the hostess is by the name of sweet, sweet, J... who usually is seen in these pictures!

And anyone would question that you were the "lady"??? Good think you taught 'em a thing or two Shelley!!!

Aw common Joey, everyone knows that chicks don't know how to catch fish!!!

Way to go girl, your streak continues!!!

Thanks for the replies everyone. We have gotten a lot of recommendations so far and we really appreciate each one of them!

Sandy

Hello old friends!

Things have been a bit crazy for us lately so I haven't been around much. Things are finally starting to slow down again, so hopefully I'll find more time to post again. I've managed a big (but wonderfully good) career change recently and we're looking to move up to the Kawartha Lakes area. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a real estate agent in the area that they can personally vouch for. We are hoping for something within a 30 minute commute from Lindsay, hopefully waterfront!!!

Thanks!

Snady

Happy belated birthday Marc!!! And Pete too of course! Maybe there is something to being blessed by the musky gods by being born on the first day of the year???

I'm very glad to hear that you got out to play hockey with your son, I'm sure that meant a lot to you.

Looks like your fishing greatness has carried on into 2008! Way to go Joey!

My hat's off to them for the job they do and the crap they deal with on a daily basis. I believe that they exercise sound judgement, otherwise they wouldn't have their jobs. Sure there may be some instances where wrong judgement calls are made, but I think a lot of people forget that they are human and do make mistakes. It isn't an easy job to do when you're constantly under public watch. I am pretty certain that their intentions aren't to go out and kill or hurt someone in a traffic accident. I will never judge because you never know when that person you've criticized is the one on your side to protect you or help you out.

Looks beautiful Rick, good job!
