Happy New Year, Rusty! I got flipped off yesterday, too.

A few months back this car almost broad sided me on the highway going through the hamlet.
I hit the horn and I got the Ol' Hippy flipper-now if it was my doing-I can accept the fickle finger of fate award-not my fault well the left shoulder comes a boiling up.
Oh some peoples children-I tell you.....

See that car making a u turn on Tamiami Trail from the right hand lane across the left lane?

It has Ontario plates, don't it?....

...you can bet your boots that it does.

Happy New Year, Duckshot.

Inflation has set in. The saying now is," How do you win a $1,000,000.00 fishing? Start with $2,000,000.00."

Yeah its like NASCAR on water

Good morning ARC, Dave, Fat, Jim, Roger, Rook & WD.

 

[ARC]

Just remember to be "easy" on pic uploads.

And definitely do not quote someone's post that has pictures ... WITH the pictures anyway.

IF you want to quote a post... remove the pictures by deleting the "attach" parameters.

SO...this RCT wont end up like the last RCT.

...

Mine end up like the old roll the dice game some right side up, some upside down and the rest sideways.

Morning RTR

Oh ya on the water NASCAR! The little town down the way, the streets are plum full of trucks and trailers that have unloaded the bass boats.
Now some of these rigs have huge power, and the funniest thing to watch.
They come into the bay so fast that there's hardly a wake-stop-cast 3X-off like a bad mosquito.
Watching repeat often during the day, along with 4 boats out on the water trying to catch something-nobody was having any luck.

In the early evening a fellow comes down with the family 5 minutes later a load WOOPING going on, 10 minutes later another GOT ONE! Yup in 15 minutes 2 large bass 4/5 lbs ea,
I saw him at the lumber yard-oh it's easy-if you know just to stay on the shore.

Wanna,
Nice 'win' yesterday for OSU; one more to go.
Good way to start the year:
Happy New Year to all.
Don....

Sorry I missed you yesterday Don, man you were up early yesterday!
How’s the winter weather been down in San Diego this year?
I have a friend who lives in Norco and he was under constant fire threats through the fall.

Good morning all and a Happy New Year to you all!

My service provider decided not to provide service yesterday, and is playing now ya have It, now ya don't today!

I hear I missed a Speedo pic, flashes of gold, high seas, ....and a rum party!

You didn’t miss much really… just ask my wife!

Woke up to a winter wonderland-now I needs to plow the yard, lane, trails.

(Will somebody slap that smiling happy idiot jumping up and down)

Those are some beautiful pics Jim, have you tried ordering a replacement battery online?

In my experience Canadian drivers are the best they help you pass them. There hwy is wide and busy they will slow down and move over and help. I try to do that here and truck drivers get it, everyone else, not so much.

Most Canadians are courteous drivers, at least I try to be. In my job I was driving 50 — 70,000kms a year across Ontario and there are some real idiots on the road.
Whenever I encountered a US license plate on the highway, they were usually the only one doing the speed limit.

Drivers suck.

And these damn Canadians :P

Oh my, those are fightin words… time for a thumb war.
You’re lucky this time ARC, due to self-isolation I can’t get closer then 6’ to you.

...you can bet your boots that it does.

I had to Google ‘Tamiami Trail’, mainly because if I get this new job I'm interviewing for the companies head office is in Fort Myers and I’ll likely be driving it.
… that is if Canada ever opens our borders to US travel again.

It's similar here Bill the cottages are all boarded up this year. The places never opened, still closed up from last winter.
The lakes were quieter, less traffic, but the local traffic was higher and more city escapers.
So it was a trade off in some respects as the neighbours have also mentioned is that most summer residents from the States treated things with respect.
It's still their home away from home and some are generational.
Beats the hell out of the city tramping around, setting fires to party, trespassing, and having that awful "It all about me" aura.
So maybe things will be somewhat the same this summer if the borders remain closed.

As you know Jim, I do a lot of ‘back country driving’ in your part of our province and you can spot the city folks a mile away.
They’re the idiots who haven’t pulled off the road far enough onto the shoulder to take a picture of the local Holstein.
So, I then have to jam on the brakes and wait for them to take their valuable vacation pics and move out of the way!

Had to post these for AARC. I know he loves his gold!

I could really hear the excitement in your voice when you posted that thread on CMD Kevin!
Both of those gold rings are incredible finds, but I really like that early signet ring.
Funny... you take your wife with you in your hobby and I use the hobby to spend quality time away from mine.

Morning Fat
Now that's a man's toy-

Morning Dave
Hope you got that shovelling done yesterday

Morning WD

I hope the head banging is gone this morning totally and your washing is all done, nothing worse than those sniffles that are wiped repeatedly up and down the sleeve, then dries kind of crispy.
Just saying get more tissue stocked up now-for incase Mr WD caught it-there's nothing worse that a man-cold.

Morning Jim, it was heavy wet snow, all I can say is... I'm so glad I bought that Honda snowblower last winter.
How are your chickens doing these days, hopefully you haven't lost any to the fox lately?

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Yeah its like NASCAR on water

Where's the snow Roger?
I want to see pics of ice fishing huts and snowmobiles flying across that frozen bay!

 

[pepperj]

Here's a video on rooftop gardening.

Great! U of Ryerson (met the Mrs there) for thinking out of the box and having gotten the mandating of green roof legislation requirements on large building roofs.
I just a tad on the fact that the membrane of most flat roofs are tar and gravel-just saying-I'm not sure what the deep rooted veg. would be sucking up.
Now why are me carrots black looking.....

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Good morning Bill and Bart.

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Funny, it's 7am on Sunday morning and the feeling just came over me that I need to get ready to go detecting.

Then I remembered it's January and all I can do is either play video golf on my phone, take the dog around the block or do the laundry.

No snow,it was 65* here yesterday. And the Cobra beat another C-3 Corvette into submission
