Girlfriend left for work and left me in her apartment. Smoked a j and headed off to the subway to head home to my place. Subway stop at Yonge and Sheppard in Toronto. Winter time and I have gloves...

We live in southern Ontario, Canada and camp at Pinery about a dozen or more times a year. Also hit Long Point once in awhile. A vaccine sure would give some peace of mind. BTW, beauty parks if you...

That sound brings back memories, all of them good.

I grew up with three older brothers and a father with an impressive record collection. Still have a lot of his 78s. Fats Waller, swing music,...

Funny to see the used Lodge skillets in the local Goodwill type store selling for the same price as the new ones at Canadian Tire. They sure do have a textured surface. Maybe a milling machine to...

Try this link. Black Diamond? Heh!

If I didn't hang out on this site I might never have heard he passed. RIP Ronnie.

Kold kamping in Kanada eh. Summer is chilly here.

It can happen here. My old high school. Not long after I got out of there, remember hearing about it on the radio while working at a tree nursery just north west of Brampton. The shooter was the...

Golf Leafs, golf!

Oh Lord? How much longer?

Lots of excuses...again and again.

It'll be different this time. You wait and see. Darned doubting Thomas. Game 7? We got this.

You don't want to see me in a bikini. Might cause you to throw up a bit in your mouth. Looks like mid-seventies for that thing.

Some great info in this thread. Thanks. Headed to the shores of Lake Huron next week with hopes of morel picking. Last year was on the dry side and the pickings were a bit slim. Rain this weekend...

Friday night, five lads around a campfire in a campground listening to Joe Bowen call the last ten minutes of the Leaf's game. Small portable radio, crackly reception. "Just put the damn puck in the...

You sure want to have a clean course to ride that thing. Skinned knees and sprained wrists? No thanks. Looks like some Road Rider six wheels. Still kicking myself for giving away my fours many...

No one cares that you skied 100 days in your retirement year.:the_finge

Funny, I get this gravelly voice running through my head shouting 'exterminate' when I look at that thing.

Spiders are notorious for building webs in gas lines. Perhaps a can of air to blow things out?

Caspian Sea is the largest lake in the world? All so confusing.

My daddy used to instill in us the idea that you can be right, and you can be dead right. What a stupid place to ride even if it is legal. Designed for failure?

Red Notice is a good read. A tale well told. He should write more, seems to have a knack for it.

Hoping you get to 100 but your old lady is more important. Best wishes and thanks for the entertainment on your endeavor.

100? Yeah, no! 30 to 35 would be a good guess. Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. Pikers'r'us ski team.

Spent a week at Jay back in the mid-seventies and every afternoon the tram closed due to high winds. Seems like a typical problem with those things but I'm speaking from a position of ignorance. Fun...

Beauty weather judging by the pics. Sorry to miss it. The kids wanted to get together so I bailed. Did manage to get out at Boler on Saturday morning as they had their final open days over the...

Very odd. Seems like you would mention that before joining the group if you cared? I don't see a plausible reason to bring it up during the get together. I do see ugly reasons to bring it up though...

My last couple of molds with Intuition liners involved a sock full of rice heated in the microwave and then dropped into the liner which stays in the boot. Allow to heat the liner for a bit and then...

Lumpy gravy yesterday, an inch of fresh and minus six this morning. Hoping the groomer didn't leave any surprises under that fresh.

What resorts are still open in southern Ontario after today? I...

Foot beds always go inside the liner? So far I have just depended on a proper shell fit and then a good liner that can be molded with heat. As the liner packs out I use thicker socks instead of a do...

I'm not the one that said 500k died. Had to look up who Lesley Stahl is/was. Billy is inferring that no kids died due to the sanctions. Do you believe that? Your final statement goes on to defend the...

According to that article. Yup, all the truth you need is in that article. It must be true.

Your children didn't die, her children didn't die. It's all good.

Between Chic Chocs, George , and Quebec generally, you should be able to get 100. Let me know if I need to send a hall pass to 'she who must be obeyed'. Bunbury is alive and well in my list of...

Sounds like you had a good time out west Paulster. Not a horrible way to end your season and forecast for Sir Sams has a bunch of snow next week. We'll see if Mrs. petey_ gives me a hall pass.

It doesn't look crazy warm for the next two weeks so that might work. Boler has decided to close until Friday with the rain forecast but the original hill seems to have a decent base. Doubting I'll...

People that tighten knobs on gas and water taps as if they are being judged on hand strength. Nothing like crushing valve seats so that they do leak.

Have you seen the parking rates at the hospital lately? My gawd it's terrible.

True that but there are some that think we're dirty Commies. Hell, I just bathed yesterday if you must know.:biggrin:

Health care in Canada is free? I wish people would stop saying stoopid things like that.

Love it!

Growing up it always seemed that 65 was the time to turn off the work machine and live the good life. Not that life was a drag before that but shucking off the obligations that came with...

Bring your skis over and Bob's your uncle.

Liking the sounds of this. It would be nice if they allowed folks to set up tents and camp on their property. Long drive to ski. There is a backcountry spot along hwy 118 that would likely work and...

You didn't get the memo? Drink beer and eyeball it. The 59.99 drill press sure helped as well.

The fat lady is in the wings. Many cookie crumbs scattered about the pistes lately so I know she will be singing soon.

Any word on Limberlost conditions? We were camping at Mew Lake in Algonquin...

Those look comfy. Wondering what brand and model? As far as hockey goes they look weak though. Love skating and hate the skates. Spent way too many bucks over the years and can't find anything that...

Ouch! Paid 1.68 for regular yesterday.:biggrin: Winning.

Sorry back at ya:) I don't know of any either.

Province of Quebec.

There have been a few resorts I used to ski at before they went private. Georgian would be nice to go back to and an old co-worker mentioned that if I ever wanted to visit he...

Got a membership as well.

Crowded hills? Certainly headed towards the end of the season when you ski on to the lifts. Is there somebody else on the lift?

Cedar Highlands I think. Tough to get the history of defunct ski hills in Ontario. You wind up going in circles and finding the same stuff over and over. Maybe someone needs to follow up on this...

If it's the place I'm thinking of it went private many years ago before closing. Real estate development now? Skied there about 50 years ago and some nice pitches were added after that time.

Some...
