Didn't want to hijack Mike's thread about seasons so I'm just gonna vent in a new thread. Things I don't like about Florida: palm tress are ugly too many alligators too many snakes too many bugs gets too hot gets too humid don't like hurricanes (give me a snow storm any...

Sounds like Buffalo:(

Don't recall ever taking any type of alcohol in my canoe. Wasn't worth the weight or bother. Back in my college days (mid 60's) my favorites were Stroh's and Schmidt's Tiger Head ale. Don't know if they are still brewed (don't care anymore!). Haven't had a beer in 32+ years. Besides, being...

I'm about 7 mi north of Turtle. The snow bands he refers to are so fickle, one of us can be getting pelted and the other will have sunshine. My oldest son lives about a mile south of Turtle (8 mi from me) and it took him about 45 minutes to get home. My younger son lives north (+/- 23 mi)...

Hope all had a great day! Had all my kids and DIL's and all but one grandchild. A truly joyous day. Didn't get my Nomad but did get 18"+ of snow with 30 more predicated for the week. Youngest grandson is still with us 'til Thurs so he and grandpa will get to spend some time on the slopes...

I find Mountain House tolerable and use it for last minute prep since I can swing by Walmart on my way out and pick up what I need. When long range planning, I order Hawk Vittles. He claims dinner for two is enough to satisfy two hungry men. I find I can be satisfied 3 times per package and...

Just a few more presents to wrap and then impatiently wait for tomorrow morning. I'm as bad as a little kid!!! Hope you all have a great day tomorrow. Merry Christmas!!!

I'd be ecstatic (that means extremely happy beyond any comparison) with whatever color Santa comes up with - and it would have to come from Santa since my early Father's Day present from Grandma was a new truck..

Great photos. Looks like something from an Alfred Hitchcock movie, "The Birds".

Linesville Spillway at Pymatuning. Check the link...

...will be Christmas Eve:eek::eek::eek:! I suppose I better start shopping for Grandma. She hasn't been very helpful with suggestions but I know she will be quietly perturbed ( as in not speaking to me). I just had a very large cherry butcher block countertop with fancy composite sink and...

Mine too.

When my sons were younger scouts (early 80's), their troop partnered with a Canadian troop. Every January they would come to our council's winter campout. Over fathers day weekend we went to an invitational shindig up there. Great fun! That's when I decided scouting was not for the boys, it...

Welcome Erica. There is a wealth of knowledge and experience here (but generally not from me).

If we ever get some skiable snow, winter will pass quickly. Skiing is what keeps me same until the hard water becomes soft again.

Been crossing into Canada (mostly @ Ft Erie/Buffalo - Peace Bridge) since 1964 mostly headed to Algonquin. In the late 70's/early 80's my wife and I assisted taking teenagers up and one year we took a rented school bus - surprisingly easy in and back.even tho coming back the kids were excited...

Robin, Have truly appreciated all your efforts in keeping canoetripping.net up and running. Too much patience and work required for me, I don't deal with frustration very well. Jon
