So sorry to hear of your loss Tom. Please accept our condolences. Jack & Jackie

Last I heard, you will have to work hard to get thro' to Buck. Lake, even with a canoe. Its the Bull rushes y'know

Tough call Huey, but you did the right thing by your friend, A faithful pet should'nt have to live in pain' We lost our Retriever a year last June, one year later, we had to get another pup. Another breed tho'.

Jackie and I are so sorry to hear this sad new's. Chris put up a long, brave fight. May God Bless him. Our thoughts are with Rob and Nichol.

I wish you all the best Rick, and look to a full recovery. Brings to mind a guy called Lance Armstrong; he is a cylist who had Testicular Cancer. He made a full comeback, and won the Tour de France 7 yrs in a row. So go to it Rick.see you at L,air next year

What's the matter Guy's? afraid to face the inevitable ? It WILL come. Got to me when I was 71. Too much effort to hook up the boat, launch it, then get it back on the trailer. Knots are'nt real problem, just takes a bit longer. Dont see the point in getting cold or wet just to catch a fish anymore, bin there. done that. Priorities have been re-arranged, I still go fishing when it suits ME. Fortunately I'm not stuck in a five days a week job,and only got w/ends to fish. Size of fish no longer matters, I get a kick out of a good sized 'Gill on 4lb line, as i did with a 5/6lb Bass on 20lb No, I havent quit fishing yet, but its getting close

And all along I thought it meant Perenial Bragging............... Move over Dabluz !!

Thankyou Glen, and a great w/end to you and yours as well. ['though I dont understand a Canuck wedding a Yank ] LOL LOL LOL

Sorry to hear 'bout Rocky, Beans. Always sad to lose a pet, but worse when its caused by some slob. Tie Twist !!! If you read my Signature, you will understand the phrase; Get a life !!!!!!!!!

Shoot, Ive made over 1000 post and the VAST majority nave been N/F. Am I in the wrong place?

Nice looking pup ya got there Gerritt, wish you many years together We just got ours last week,and he already makes a difference to our lives

quote name='glen' date='Sep 17 2008, 06:52 PM' post='250628'] Fisherman is right. You can put used bearing back into the same races they came out of. But never mix them up. After diving a 1/2hr or so get out and put your hand on the hub to check for heat. Warm is ok. Hot is trouble. Right now your bearings and seals are all cooked. I bought a tent trailer this year equipt with AL - Kousa hubs and Ultrulube bearings. After # or 4 trips back to the dealer for HOT bearing problems, we finally got to the Tech.Dept of AL-Kousa. They quoted an operating temperature range of 110 - 160degs. I STILL think its hot, but, that is their specification. Sorry if I hi-jacked this thread, but if anyone gets these Hubs/Bearings, you'll know the situation.

I filled one out years ago, now I've decided they can have the rest of me to practice on

Thanks for the replies, Gentlemen. I'll pass them on to my friend for them to think about. Who know's, there may be a Guiding job for someone next year!

Has anyone heard of a Fishing/Hunting Lodge called; Halfway Haven. Its up near Thunder bay/ Wawa area. Its for sale and a Friend is thinking about it. If you do know of it. any comments would be appreciated.

I was browsing[dare I say it?] Bill Dances web site,while snowbirding. way back when? There was a Post from a dude named Beansguy, I got in touch with him,and he put me on to OFC. The only Board I read now. Thanks Beans !!

Just a line to say "Thankyou" for all the good wishes and thoughts to my previous post. Thanks again, Jack and Jackie

Now THERE is a little beauty, obviuosly not a chip off the old block tho" Congratulations to all concerned

Wifey and I just got back from Niagara [Golden Horseshoe], where we celebrated our "Golden" Anniversary Had a great time, and decided that I would'nt want to change a thing.

I never got to meet Gary personally, but he was one of the first to give encoursgement during my recent Prostate problem. A very generous man in more ways than one, as many Members can attest RIP Gary, and my heartfelt condolences to his family.

I have to go along with Terry ! If you get the Impeller replaced, cost? and then have to pay BIG bucks to fix the motor, you would prolly find a newer/used one for less bucks. It sounds like #1 cylider is fried unfortunatley........but,as you know I'm not a mechanic. Good luck!!

Congratulations Roger ! Only you are semi-retired. Retirement means clearing up all the jobs that on the back burner, THEN get a part time job to get you out of the house for a rest. Enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I had my 40hp / Bass boat, I would pull the plugs and put dead ones in. Never thought about the in-line fuse Insurance is a must of course.

Way to go Adrianne! That first Musky sure gets the heart pumping dont it. And the 2nd and the 3rd, and on and on..............................

TJ, its only luck when you catch 'em Lew has the skills Nice fish there Jim, and the 2nd this year? Some of Lew must be rubbing off
