          the fridge is still there

          It hasn't fell over yet since last year. My makeshift shimming is still working. Great that BDF will be there, he's got a few stories hehe. We'll discuss & solve many of the worlds problems over a bonfire & beer. Too bad there won't be anyone there to write some of the stuff down. Oh well we can't save everyone. I can't see any changes from last year - the cowboy steak thing & baked toulies (potatoes) should be fine as before for Friday & Sat supper. Hey MO pm me with a head count so I'll have all set for the chow & bedding - Dan

                            Hi B11,
                            It's the biggest Islland in Ontario Also the biggest Island in the world surrounded by Fresh Water
                            Has some great roads and hardly any people.

                              Thx for the pics great memories

                              Hey James: The pics look great, no wonder we all like to hang around there hehe. Love the one of the 'tall boys" as they were an important part too. That one from Ten Mile Point looks cool, what a vista. Got my CDI today in the mail so life is good. Will try to install asap. - Dan
