I am trying to visualize the 6" and the 10'... assuming the underside of the concrete in the middle (or top of granular base) as 0 and the base is flat, then you have 6" concrete in middle, is the intent to have 10" high on the outside so you can grade the sod away? if that's the case then your contractor could dowel in a curb around the outside top edge of the pad allowing you better grading away from the slab. Its not monolithic but it would likely work well for you.

Thanks Wayne, we would have been one meal short fishing this weekend... well there is always beer and chips!

Oh man.... I love grey squirrels.... red, not so much!

Cool! But there is no way you would catch me swimming with that much current upstream of the falls, not even tied to a tree, a BIG tree with a big rope! nope, nope, nope! lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnHNqvOB42M Not sure if the link will work, but it's one of my favorites up at camp.... Gets the blood flowing! Google Da Tirty Point Buck by Da Yoopers (if the link doesn't work.) Good luck!

Can I join you??? I will let you squeeze your trigger first.... promise lol

First off, I don't have wood heat however I will second Chris's recommendation to call to Meloche Monnex or Primmum (sister companies through TD I believe - but don't quote me) I have had claims (auto) with both and they have been great. Definitely check every avenue you can think of, university, college, professional associations, employer, second cousin, etc to try and get a group rate. Sometimes joining an association like the OFAH for example might cost, what??? $50 a year and through their group insurance you cans save hundreds.

In the voice of Doug Marcaida from 'Forged in Fire'...."it wiilll cast!"

The fork flip! lol

who, premiers or Capybarras? The Politicians of today might as well be wearing masks! lol

Fox's Bakery cheese bagel??? I would be begging for a piece as well. lol

that's a great one!

Exceptional!!! I really enjoyed that report, keep them coming.

my favorite of the waterfowl (to look at)

The 'at the hole' shots are awesome! very well done.

The world could definitely use more people like him. FYI. CTV Barrie is doing a special on him tonight at 6. I set my PVR.

Price match at CT? If they have it, that is.

My experience is that perch are sight biters, they go down when the sun goes down. Whitefish and the odd trout will still bite though. Good luck, next time try setting up in areas where you would normally find lakers and whities.

you're like the bird whisperer.... Great Shots!!!

Pic #1... HOLY WOW!!!! (Caps are the least I can do)

All the best, I'll be looking for it.

ok the original video was, well... humorous, but the remake, I can't stop laughing... "get out of here Bear, go!!!... come here bear!" Oh brother.

Saw a documentary on the History Channel. They believe Noah's arc was also round.

Just stumbled across this... https://vimeo.com/67253679

Kraikey!!! don't I feel inferior... I haven't dreamt about that many fish never mind having the pics to prove it. Congrats on the 4 digit club!
