I do believe if they through a SD on those canoes it would just sit there on the bottom.
Yeah it's never fun to be that old guy hanging out! LOL

I try telling my wife she needs to check stuff like oil, air in the tires, etc and all I get for it is "That's what you are for"

My wife would just call me to do it.......

It took a few days for me too. Tom (our Head of Chapter) doesn't get on here everyday! You can just post until you get "officially" abducted (inducted maybe?) into this thread!


My condolences go out to you and your family Dale, You will be in my prayers.

Ah, that really sucks Dale. I am so sorry to hear that. Like Tom said anything you need just call.

Welcome to the MN Chapter Mr. Windows. You have a first name?

My trailer was an easy temporary fix. Grease the bearings and tighten the hub nut...
