Looking for a Pontoon Boat

Filed under: General

Yes, that’s right.  As you can tell from the number of fishing posts I have put up on my blog, really starting to get into fishing again.  As a matter of fact, just received my Vans EZ Cast, a contraption that attaches to my wheelchair and helps me cast my fishing line.  Now, I need a boat to fish from!

 

I have been doing a lot of googling and it seems a pontoon boat is the way to go.  Should be able to allow wheelchair access without very much modification.  So, please keep your eyes open for me.  Preferably, something 20 foot or less in length.  Used would be nice.  If you see anything, please let me know!

Happy Canada Day (And Thank You Charlie)

Filed under: General

Happy birthday to Canada!  It’s a great country we live in (except for the winter months).  If I had a choice, don’t think I would move to any other country.  Got an early start to the Canada Day celebrations: fireworks at Beasley Park last Friday.  Charlie, who is a friend of Paulo & myself & Terry, loves to set off fireworks.  He also happens to work beside a factory that makes them and sells them wholesale.  Every year, on Victoria Day & Canada Day, Charlie puts down about $500 of his own money to buy the most beautiful fireworks you could imagine.  Last Friday, he was going for a steady half-hour: one after the other!  It was simply a fantastic show.  Thanks Charlie!  I was there with Paulo & Jeannine & Kaleb & & Terry-a nice night out.

 

Today, off to Ivor Wynne Stadium to watch my Tiger Cats kick some Argo butt.  The Dickhead is even coming along to cheer for Hamilton!  Pictures to Follow.  It’s the first regular-season game and once again hopes are high in Hamilton.  Oskee Wee Wee!

Wait a minute: got a call from Brother Joseph.  Apparently Wentworth Heights, Mom’s Nursing Home, was having a Canada Day barbecue get-together.  Off we went.  Got Mom outside.  Brother Joe & I each had a hamburger with all the fixings.  Mom seemed to enjoy her time outside.
