hi linda !!

well mlle....hhaahha...don t worry for the firewoods..i ll have plenty....enough for 2 weeks...just in case you would like to come up earlier !!

we ll slow down the firewoods and give them redwood instead !!...hahhaha

fyi...i bought 4 new tires for my 4w...so ,i don t expect to need your towing services !!

you might be the one to be towed !! :tease:

not too bad week end...13 moose thursday and friday night ...about 200 miles of riding ...still can see the smoke coming from the fires on the north shore

btw..guy and jean have a brother in baie comeau...he lost his hunting camp somewhere near toulnustouc river...he has a small plane ..flew there last week ..camp kaputt !!

your bunnies are taking care of my lawn...they re are very busy !!

very hot and dry here...no work for me for next week !!

pics with 4w in the water...where we entered causapscal river with eddie and john + friends !!

jean-guy :drinks: <<<<<<<<<<<<milk !!!!.....hahhahhahah!!!

HI Jean-Guy!!

Well I must say your pictures are certainly pulling on my heart strings! I have been too busy, I am not sure I could stay awake for the drive. The market here is like the old days and busy as hell. This is good news though, I will have more money for Redwood lol.

The bunnies look good!! Did you get the chimes hung? And how about my Grey Jays? I have some new suet for them for fall...they should be lined up on the deck for their picture to be taken.

I wouldn't get too cocky about not needing my towing service...the tires will only help so much you know. Sometimes you just need skill lol. I will bring the toe rope in case you need a little help. lol

We had so much fun there this year, you might need to run shifts of visitors this year. I am sure looking forward to the snow. I picked up the 4 wheeler and dropped off the sleds today.

You know how I always say people see me coming and rip me off...can you believe the last place that I took my 4 wheeler, used duct tape on my air filter!! They not only didn't actually give me a new one, they ripped the old one so they taped it together!

Anyhow, I better sleep!

Talk to you soon!

strange week end...no 4w...still at doctor !!

went working yesterday morning along the road with chainsaw about 1.5 miles from camp..half a mile before that treestand for long distance calls !!

on my way back..stopped at orange camp...and jack told me that a woman saw a cougar with a rabbit in his mouth in her yard..about 5 miles outside town...

Hi Jg I have moose pic too from New Hampshire , not good to run into him on 4wheeler

hi artsled and trailblazer !!

yaa..not good at all....but looks in a good mood !!

happened often to me at night....they are so close ,can hear them walk or run in thedarkness ...just outside the '' light ''...must think fast ...stop or hit the throttle to get away....last year or 2 years ago...going down a hill ...mom + calf they just crossed trail right in front of me during day light....

just to give you an idea..when i go to party at the lake and come back late at night....doing 6-7 miles depending where i am at the lake...i take 50 mins average going back to camp...very careful with that ...15-20 mph max.....higher than that...road must be very wide..

pics from this morning ...on my way to work...just beside farm...you re looking toward albertville and lac saumon and ski center !!

Lots of Deer running around my place.

hi crazysnow !!

thx for pic !!lucky to have deer close by !!here ,more chance to see moose than deer.

in the 90's deer hunting has been closed for many years...population was so low...bit better now !!

back to great weather....lots of rain here lately !!!looks like it rained a lot on the east side...toward logging road and up...causapscal river is very high today and water dirty !!

forgot ,that patch of wood on the other post in the field...we ve been behind..we were parked half a mile in straight line from there..farm is just on the left !!

pic..where i work !!!might be done there tomorrow...

late yesterday afternoon , i moved on the other side of the wood lot to save walking in the clearcut...that car was along the road !!must have been there since 15 years or close !!

wooooWWW!!!...not my generation....but back then there was enough room to do camping on the back seat !!!!

i have a memory blank...just next to the handle for window...on the right ..there s 2 round things on top of another ,were they to bring fresh air in the car ...i think you had to pull them....not sure !!

That car looks like a project car for the Fast and Loud Boys or The Count. That big back seat was a great thing back when I was a youngin. As Louis Chevalier sang in the movie Gigi "Ah yes I remember it well".
