I thought almost erbody hated Ranger boats?

 

oh well good deal I suppose for all these millionares

I love the outdoors and my better half hates it. Ive gotten her to shore fish once, and the only time she ever gets in the boat is every other year for camping, and she hates camping too!

 

but my kids love it so she never minds when we are out and about.

 

in the winter though she beads and I make harnesses, and we sit and chat and do it for hours most evenings.?

tatar is impressive

yes I agree. hes gonna be the next big redwing star I think

frig Im still waiting. we got about an inch total

 

of course because I have the sled running like a top

 

Not schooled that bad.

see how we fair against the best hockey player on earth, Mr. Pavel Datsyuk

my dad caught a good pike 2 summers ago and tried to get a pic. a bald eagle took a few runs at him and the pics turned out hilarious(my step mom has em or id think about sharing them lol).

 

i didnt hear this story until fishing walleye one day, we get a limit and on the way back to the landing we stop on this mud flat and cast for some pike.

 

we are catching almost every cast, just having fun with smallish pike. I notice a baldie up on a branch watching and mention it as im about to take out my phone for a few pics. next thing i know im half in the bottom of the boat as my dad fired up the boat and decided to take off full tilt...

 

i guess he doesnt like eagles anymore lol

A couple years ago I booked a Lake Erie Charter for Bass for my 85 year old grandfather and myself.

I get to the ramp and get all our gear loaded into the boat and off we go for a full 6 hours of fishing. It wasn't until the ramp came into sight on our way back in it dawned on me, I had left my truck running beside the boat ramp passenger door wide open and windows down the entire time we were out. When I got back to shore my truck had been moved and the keys placed under the floor mat and a business card from the regional police asking me to give him a call.

Guess I was pretty excited to get out there fishing with Gramps. Officer had a good laugh at my expense

wow that coulda ended way worse

 

hahahaha

just this year my dad and I took my kids out fishing. small walleye lake and got a limit quickly so the kids wanted to fish bass for awhile. so I break out some heavier rods and all three of them are spooled in the 20lb range.

 

so were trolling the shoreline and im up at the front on the trolling motor. I hear this big snap and thud, something smacks me in the back of the head, pretty hard too

 

all the kids start laughing. I shut off the motor and im trying trying to figure out what just happend???

 

I look at the back of the boat, I see my new rod snapped. kids notice and stop laughing. im looking around the boat and I see a branch floating beside, good size branch too.

 

so now the kids fess up. my youngest had casted into a tree. so as I trolled the rod was under alot of tension. in a panic he musta tightened the drag. one thing led to another and as the branch broke the rod flung it at me as it snapped in half

 

I wasnt very happy but after a few minutes it was a good laugh:)

vinyl from gramps. its not "holiday music" but this was always on and I loved it

 

Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass A Taste of Honey :

We found that my grandpa saved a newspaper from the moon landing. He kept a few other significant history landmarks but I found that one the coolest.

no way thats wicked!!

 

Eh, really what's the big deal... I bet he doesn't forget to do a wee bit of research the next time he goes to a foundation dinner or similar. It's embarrassing but that's about it.

ummmm its gonna be replayed forever... and hes in toronto. come on bill, you know what im talking about.

 

and yes hes on point with his game. he looks very comfortable. making it look easy and thats awesome

bernier is gonna regret those Mandela comments for life

what the hell???

That would be dude. A legal clean block can be a dirty hit. It's now a rule in the NFL, hitting a defenseless player, it was legal last season. So legal and dirty can be the same. Blindside is another term.

thats just silly. its always been apart of the game.

 

thats like removing fighting from hockey lol

 

so if an rb is running up the sidelines, or heck even the middle, opposing player chasing about to tackle, the team mate of said rb has to pat opposing player on shoulder and say look at me im about to block you?

 

ffs

hahaha thats awesome!!!!

 

my boy likes your dog, says that pretty impressive haha

 

roloff living the good life:)

yeah no doubt lew.

 

im not sure jimmer? id imagine lots of similar newspapers have survived

 

my gramps saved it for me so its value stays at home, then to my kids;)

2014 has been a complete rollercoaster for me. I basically flipped my life upside-down. (Sold my car, Sold my house, Quit my job, Divorced my wife, and now I have some medical issues likely due to the ridiculous amount of stress I'm under.....)

 

But I did buy a kayak last year!! Of coarse I only fished out of it 2 times...

 

Next year I would really like to pick up a used quad for ice fishing. But that's wishful thinking considering my current situation.

howah! sorry dood. thats rough

wow if the chain breaks look out!

anyone remember when ricki the dragon steamboat went off the top ropes and landed neck first on a guard rail?

 

very cool! i enjoyed reading what i could from the picture you posted!

cool. ill take a pic of the inside for ya

So Im sitting here at the new house unpacking boxes and look what I found!!! Its an old paper my grandpa burpie saved and I kept it after his passing.

 

so friggen happy I found this. probably been in storage for years!

 

anyone else have "special to them" keepsakes from special people in your lives? post em up!
