Hey Folks, I'm back home

Thanks everyone,

This was our 6th trip together to Ontario and one of the best.

Both flights were great & had good movies.
On the way, was : K-19 , The Widow Maker
On the way back, was : Men In Black II

I went a little stir crazy at times, being away from the puter & missing this site. I was able to visit a library 3 times in 16 days plus Nutter & I read a few threads together,it kinda helped.

The first 5 days were spent at the cottage on Lake Mazineau.5 days of doing NOTHING but a little reading.
With the leaves changing colours a lake view with a Loon to wake up to every morning, it was "Just beautiful!" around there.

Michelle & I rented a 2002 VW Beetle.
It was okay but I won't do it again,Lots of room for me but,too much road noise & you can't see where the front bumper or rear bumper is. We did put 2200 Km on it though.

Michelle must have found every *Dollar Store*, East of Hamilton,we came home with two boxes and a 3rd piece of luggage.
Total weight 160lbs. Yikes!

Just so everyone knows we met some wonderful people from this site and they DID'NT look at all like I had pictured.

Nutter(Rick) & his on again off again wife ,Deb, live on a great piece of property near Port Perry. When we arrived & met,Michelle & I were greeted by at least 100 Wild Turkey's walking across a field near the house.What a Site !
I can understand why he is into 4x4'n & snowmobiling.

Weldman(Matt) has a great looking machine that is a lovingly restored
former farm truck. Very Nice Matt.
Susanne(sp)accompanied Matt to the FTE meet.

Quadqism was also there and has a well taken care of truck & he is a nice guy.

BrentS(Brent) drove from Brampton with Joanne (wife)and Michael (infant son)
They seemed to really enjoy the few hours and showed enthusiasm toward
more meets.
On a side note,it was nice to see a young lady (Joanne) eat so well and so much, she could compete with me.
Way to go Joanne !

A recently joined user Keiths50_F68 happened by to meet us and show some photo's of his newly acquired 1950-F68 Fire Truck (Former Tanker)

Everyone who attended received an FTE Bumper sticker & a 5" Ford Oval Decal from Ken & Peggy.

I also had a luck of the draw for two item's.
A 20" Ford Oval Sticker going to BRENT
& a foam/insulated Beer Bottle sleeve with a 79 4x4 printed on it.
I doubt it will take Wayne too long to wear of the photo's of the G & Dodge truck that were also printed on it..


Photo's of the event will be posted in both the Ontario chapter forum,& the Events forum.

Glad to be back.

More on the trip to follow.

Welcome back Dennis... Nice pics. Ontario is beautiful.. I was in Ottawa for Canada Day 2001. What a celebration. A beautiful Capitol city as well. Try the Montreal Jazz Festival some year. It is a blast.

Hey Red Thanks.

I was on Oct 22nd.
Mike takes a break before christmas therefore they will re-run the show around that time.

I think Mike went back live on Oct 7th,so The show was the 11th of the season.It just wasn't me ,Michelle was on it too don't forget.
She said she was a Housewife from Whitby.

Have a look in the directory.
Guests were Joe Flaherty
Author Ted Schred

During my time away I was missing my truck so much I took the Beetle to see what REAL vehicles look like.
