  1. very nice job on the road, a lot of work, will be great for winter
  2. Probably the truest, most important statement I have seen yet , should be on the front page...maybe it would help to get people pulling their trousers up and pulling the rope in the same direction for common good!!
  3. A little tougher landing than the groomer you took off trail!!
  4. Tom, if this really happens I will be in touch.
  5. You guys can wait until the snow falls if you want...but the road is calling for a bike trip to Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick....really did not see this coming....GREAT NEWS FOR SURE!!!
  6. That is great news and I am very surprised given Delta variant has really picked up a lot due to unvaccinated...but faced with the consequences and reality many are now rushing to get it as they are seeing people 20 to 40 with absolutely no health issues at all getting very sick and dying as the strain just keeps getting stronger, hopefully we can get to that threshold where we can start fully enjoying things as we chose....but until it happens I am cautiously optimistic.
  7. on the main road south of the ferry landing in Baie Comeau
  8. Select hotel in Amqui, last time there Stan and I ate and drank with Groomer.
  9. Thankfully the vaccines are free in the US...99 % of all new cases are unvaccinated, a few southern states are starting to have major surges of the new delta variant, 20k a day, and going up, for the last week...all in places where only 30 % chose to get vaccinated....now facing a very uncertain future many are racing to get vaccinated....I truly do not see how to stop the spread and this will certainly become an issue everywhere once people get moving around again, only a matter of time. We are all so lucky, most places outside of North America have no choice, and no vaccine, millions are dying.
  10. Back woods logger driver carpentry , unmistakable, nothing more relaxing or comfortable to being 20 miles on the other side of the lake in an old cabin in the Maine Wilderness, with friends, fly rods, your dog and cold beer!!
  11. It is a start, border closing has been tough, in the last 8 weeks, 96.7 % of all covid cases in U S are from unvaccinated people...who are now saying...they wish they had gotten the shot. Risky behavior...the Delta variant is way more contagious and deadlier. Some places...like Massachusetts...where the vaccination rate is one of the highest with some communities at 95%...the cases are now at .38 per 100k people, or 1 person per 300 thousand.....if this new variant starts going crazy among those who are unvaccinated, and it is already happening in some southern states...you can bet this easing and opening of the border is going to stop quickly....it is now clear that the vaccines work...we live in an area in south Berkshire where the shot rate is over 95% and this is like candy land....no cases here...hospitals are empty...we are really looking forward to traveling again, life is normal here and has been for months.
  12. I hear she is very talented with open borders and the border agents are now all welcoming and even carry bags!!
  13. Notice Uncle Joe has shaken her from his shadow the the couple of weeks, her aspirations are too high, and her qualifications too low.
  14. perfect timing, someone figured their would be less resistance to closing the lifeline trail to Cote Nord during the pandemic, hopefully that ship gets righted.
  15. millions of kids home schooled this year ....in homes with guns....and not one shooting.....I am a gun owner...and a bird hunter....and have guns all my life....and never carried or found the need to....and never pointed a gun at any person....and I hope I never have to....and I do not want to give up the fact that I feel very safe out in the country where help is 45 minutes away knowing we can protect our home and family if we have to, everyone should have this basic right....and they should handle it appropriately.Bad people will always find ways to do bad things....don't punish good people for their actions.
  16. some one might hear it as boob....really ridiculous....we have a great team at work....where all of us can take and give a good joke or razing.... we have a beer at the end of a hot day....go sledding together.....help each other out all the time....and none of us buy into any of that garbage...and we just won't have any part of it....we all rely on each other for advice...what the hell is so hard about treating people well...at the end of the day...that mentality is what makes sledding in Quebec so attractive...great sport and wonderful people/ hospitality, it's a special thing to have that with your help at work.
  17. you know that situation when something you say can be interpreted 2 ways and there is always some person who seems to intentionally make believe you said something you did not say or mean.....sorry folks but I personally am not buying into any of this garbage, not yesterday, not today and not tomorrow!!
  18. Great pic JG....really looking forward to the reunion!!
  19. A long, long time......that does not translate into this fall, which is just around the corner.....I will be thrilled to see it open in the fall....hopefully we keep progressing forward and getting better numbers every day...and this will be happening in Canada soon, let's keep our fingers crossed!!
  20. you make some good points and thoughts ....You are correct and it has been very clear over the years that some powerful clubs would groom areas locally beneficial to their club or lodges, inter connectivity is what this is about, that should work for everyone.
