    Meanwhile, down at the Boat Landing...

    Also they tie up the ramps or prep their boat at the ramp before or after launch. I've seen some come close to throwing punches. I felt bad for a couple last year at one of our ramps. They were new to boating as indicated by the time they spent prepping the boat for launch with several behind...

    Meanwhile, down at the Boat Landing...

    The guy that wins the prize is the one yelling at this wife and kids after his 5th attempt to back it in straight. That's some good entertainment for the rest of us but not so much for the wife and kids.

    What's in a name?

    Returning from our recent trip to Florida, we had a connecting flight out of O'Hare. We had some time to kill so we grabbed some dinner and browsed the area of Terminal 2. Pictured is a full sized F4 Wildcat on display. The same one, piloted by the namesake of Chicago's Airport, Edward Henry...

    Pictures from a Bucket List

    That was our plan but the buses were sold out. It sounds like they book days in advance.

    Pictures from a Bucket List

    Nope, maybe next time. I saw it on the map but didn't have the time to visit. I'm sure it's a must-see when in the area. :)

    Pictures from a Bucket List

    I usually post some pictures from our Snow Chasing days, but with a No-Snow year, we went in another direction, Florida! As many on here know, I'm very much into Aviation. Especially the Fly In in Oshkosh known as the E.A.A. and one of the many items on my list of things to do before the Grim...

    911, What's Your Emergency?

    The wife buys a copy of the book Exorcist. After reading the first few chapters she realizes the story is evil and throws it in the fireplace. The next day, the husband buys the exact same book, takes it to his shop and carefully chars the edges with his propane torch. That night before bedtime...

    Value of memorabilia

    I don't want to be harsh here, but I think you've got a niche market and need to price accordingly. I recall the name and some of the stunts but it was long enough ago that there will be limited interest from the general public. If he's known locally, I would target that area. If he's...

    Tough Sledding at Ski Doo

    North America's warmest winter on record put a chill on snowmobile sales at BRP Inc., which saw profits plummet last quarter as a result.

    Retirement Scenario

    Excellent point regarding healthcare. Both my parents and in-laws were 2 hours from a hospital that could treat them. I recall Dad had at least one helicopter ride to the E.R. and a couple more in the ambulance. Otherwise they were on their own at all times of the day and night, good weather and...
