We had some family friends Who lived in Sooke. Good fun as a kid taking the ferry and catching sea food. They moved to Parksville. Don't know if they are still alive as we have lost touch since my parents passings.Nice ! I’ve lived on the island all my life not gonna say how old I am , but there is always a fire extinguisher handy at birthday party’s
I worked and played hockey for years in Tacoma, many pleasant memories of "your island". The garden was always one of our favorite places. Total tourist trap but kept going back! So we rode motorcycles everywhere and often took the ferries here and there. We got caught in the rain and were in the guest center trying to get warm. My buddy has to pee so goes into the head. Few minutes later I hear the hand dryer on full tilt shutoff then the slam of the mushroom switch being crushed yet again. After an extended period of time my buddy does not come out of the head. Hand dryer still howling I decide to investigate. Yep , there he is leathers around his feet and pants around his knees in what can only be called a comedic pose trying to dry his junk. I had warned him leather pants were much better for the trip than chaps but nooooooo he had to wear chaps!
Pretty sure we are not gonna do it. My wife's work wont jive and I'm tired of being the fifth wheel. As a family we all just need to get together and there is so much to see and do locally. It just doesn't make sense to me.
That's what Grampas are for guys LOL. I'll teach them anything but how to swear. Unfortunately that'll come from the school grounds.
That's normal isn't it? LOL
I still have a good supply of clips too BP. Been in my toolbox for a long time.
Yeah that's the part I was thinking. We used to get them in a 8ft strip with chrome on the top edge. But those ones are factory. Depends on how accurate it has to be.
This happened the other day in Alaska. Moose walked right into the waiting room in the hospital.
That'll be y'all BiffHey guys you all been busy ( my best America accent)
My birthday is on Saturday. Got everyone coming to help me celebrate. The big 70 YIKES!!!Nice ! I’ve lived on the island all my life not gonna say how old I am , but there is always a fire extinguisher handy at birthday party’s
Biggest and only gun I've fired is a high velocity pellet gun my son has. He has to have a license for it because of the power of it.
Morning Jeff, My son in Alaska has one but I never shot one.
Thanks buddy. Wiser is a rye you buy here. Is that what you meant or just getting smarter? LOL
Smarter Mark.
No I meant Rye Whiskey Fred. Love rye bread too.
That sounds good to I'll take both. lol
Sure be nice to see it finished Fred. I bet you can't wait either.
I'm getting pretty excited Mark but gonna cost a butt load of money.
I would have like to do that myself Fred. I'd be ok with a lot of the mechanical stuff and possibly the wiring too but body work would be out of the question. That would have been back in the day of course. Good luck to doing that now. Too many aches and pains. Just heard that tonight will be very cold. Will feel like -24c tonight. We'll be warm inside. Glad we don't have a dog that needs to go out for a walk.
Thanks Jeff... I always like it when I wake up alive. Kinda makes your day doesn't it LOL
