Wish I could advise on which battery powered blower Cliff. I once had a little Toro electric blower I got on clearance, it worked too good! I had to duct tape a piece of plastic to the chute so it wouldn’t blow the snow so far! The electric was a pain though with the cord being dragged around in the snow and my driveway had so many slanted uneven spots that the lightweight blower wanted to go where it wanted, not where I wanted it to go. Buy a high voltage battery blower, I myself like the Ryobi+ because the batteries will fit other Ryobi tools. I hope I solved my snow clearing problem this year, we sold the house and bought an apartment condo. Moved August 1, so far so good 🤞I sold the little electric blower and gave my like new Cub Cadet with power steering and heated handles to my son.

I own 4 of these reels. Loved the 300’s, the original from the 1940’s or it could have been the 50’s? and a 300 both from my late father and my own which no longer works. The 4th. which was given to me from a great next door neighbour who I miss very much. He gave it to me before he went into a nursing home where he eventually passed on to the great fishing hole in the sky. I also bought the new version a few years back so I guess there’s actually 5 of them hanging around in my garage. R.I.P Dad and Ernie. I hope the fish are hungry wherever you’re at.

Sure, of course they can hear. They have extra sensory hearing! 🩺🧏‍♂️

Yep! You have to remember the big sponsor! I used to like a fishing show that only ran for maybe one season, maybe 2 seasons. An English fellow hosted it, I think it was called Urban Outdoor Adventures , ? Or something like that. Every week his sponsor gave away a selection of fishing lures. Might have been sponsored by Rapala..

I’ve seen a few YouTube videos on it. Seems pretty neat, I think if you’re on a city size lot it might be decent. I saw the TSC website advertising it for that price and also saw it on Amazon.ca for something like 1600 bucks, I think the same model. Also was thinking if I get to that point in my life when lawn cutting is a big chore (I’m almost there!) it might be a better option than hiring a lawn cutting outfit to do it.

So Sail has reopened just in time for their bankruptcy announcement. Was flashed on some tv news show this morning.

Yep, you got it Dave. Just simply follow the directions. 👍

I think the last fishing show I watched, (which was also probably about 5 years ago, ) may have been Fishing Canada. I laughed so much. According to them you can not ever go fishing without a brand new Dodge truck and that brand new Dodge truck just had to have a certain brand of tires mounted on it. Oh nooooooo you couldn’t leave the brand new factory branded tires that it came with mounted on the wheels. You just had to have whatever the brand was that sponsored the show to get you to the fishing hole because there would be no way to get there with any other tire! In the end after the laughing at the stupidity of it I almost puked. So sickening.

Quite the frame. Should do a good job of holdIng the awning together in the wind.

Nice size awning Dave. Is it fixed or can you roll it up?

Likely the same people made the cover for my new boat back in 2005 when I bought a complete package from Riverside Marine in Dunnville. Did a great job of it, good price and it was made from Topgun material. I no longer have the boat ☹️

Yep, flying is reasonable. It can be even less costly from Niagara Falls, NY. However you need transportation once there. That may be an issue, rent a car, taxi or bus? I figure for any length of time over a week you’re probably better off with your own car.

Hey there Cliff! Sounds like you’re “Diggin’” Myrtle Beach! sorry, I just couldn’t help myself. Have a great time.

Small note to add to Fisherman’s reply. Re: refillable 1 lb. propane tank at Home Depot U.S is not available in store at least at the the Niagara Falls N.Y locstion. Read the link carefully and you will see that it is available online only.

Big Cliff, i have always respected and looked up to your words and opinions. Your response to this topic does certainly reinforce my thoughts, beliefs and admiration for you. You could not have said it any better! Here’s to you . 👍👍🍺🍺 Cheers!
