  1. Best of luck to you Brian ! Try to remain positive ,eyesight is something most of us take for granted.
  2. Great report and great looking area. Time spent with your family outdoors is priceless.
  3. Home Hardware carry axe sheaths as well.
  4. You must of had someone fat like me on your deck. You may be able to seal it with marine silicone , but I would be afraid of it still spreading. You may want to figure out how to support your deck to relieve the stress on that rivet.
  5. My wife had all her credit cards compromised by a card reader in a mall. Visa picked up on it when someone purchased tires in Quebec. Her bank card was also used along with her mastercard. All charges were paid back by the credit companies involved. We now use the foil CC holders to avoid the hassle.
  6. Bravo to your group for taking the time to make those kids lives a little richer.
  7. Days like you had make great lasting memories !
  8. Subject: Two Northern Ontario Guys Two Ice fishermen from Northern Ontario fall through the ice with their snow machine and drowned and wake up in hell. The next day the devil stops in to meet them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens and toques warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them, "What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough for you?" The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we're from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh?" The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and turns up the heat. The next morning he stops in again and there they are, still dressed in parkas, toques and mittens. The devil asks them again, "It's awfully hot down here, can't you guys feel it?" Again the two guys reply, "Well, like we told ya yesterday, we're from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh?" This gets the devil a little steamed up and he decides to fix these two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Canada and finds them in light jackets and baseball hats, grilling sausages, burgers, hot dogs and drinking beer. The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in total misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves." The two Canadians reply, "Well, ya know, we don't get too much warm weather up there in Timmins, so we've just got to have a cook-out when the weather's THIS friggin nice." The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn all the heat off in hell. The next morning, the temperature is 40 degrees below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere; people are shivering so bad that they are unable to do anything but wail, moan, and gnash their teeth. The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two Canadians. He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, toques, and mittens, but this time they are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like someone who has just won the lottery! The Canadians look at the devil in totally surprise! The devil is dumbfounded, "I don't understand, when I turned up the heat you're happy! Now it's freezing cold and you're still happy! What in Hell is up with you two???" Don't you know that when Hell freezes over, it means the Leafs have won the Stanley Cup."
  9. THE HAIRCUT "Blessed are those that can give without remembering, and take without forgetting.” One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door. Later, a policeman comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replies, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The policeman was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door. Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill , the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The Member of Parliament was very happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Members of Parliament lined up waiting for a free haircut. And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.
