Good Friday
 

How are you going to spend your day off / long weekend ...?


Me .... either working on my R/C crawler ... or spending time w/ the gf. :wink_thumbup:

Where Do You Get Your Rc Fuel And What Do You Run.

Well the crawler doesn't run on nitro, it is purely electric. I'm running an Integy 55T "lathe" motor (yes motors that were designed for lathes.. not r/c's).

But I do have a nitro HPI Savage in storage for winter right now. I just run Byrons 20% fuel through it. I buy it locally through my local hobby shop. I barely used it at all last summer... LOL. I spent all my weekends up north on my boat.


.... Just found out what we are doing tomorrow.

Friends of ours, they are going to come up w/ the kiddies (6 and 8 yr old daughters) to head to Kortright Centre tomorrow.

mmmmm sugar syrup goodness.

Mmmmmm. Maple syrup 'sicles....

Whatever happens this weekend, I'm sure it'll involve some overeating, and snoozing on the couch. :rolling_laugh:

Oh yeah .. the "clean snow" 'sicles ;)

Snoozin on the couch dreaming about bein on the boat eh ...

hmmm....fresh maple syrup and pancakes. Yum yum! :yes_grin:

Funny that. Last night I was dreaming about May two-four and gettin' my boat out of storage...

Ohhhh yeah ... plate sized pancakes and fresh Kortright maple syrup was had!

What a great day. Lil bit chilly, but it wasnt raining. The kids enjoyed the peregrine falcon demostration and the sugar bush walk. We decided to do the guided tour to learn a bit and educate the kiddies a bit on what goes on. They more or less just wanted to run in the snow.. lol.

I will say one thing tho, our friends have probably two of the best well behaved 6 and 8 yr old daughters around. They are far more mature then some teenagers I know of.... hehe. :wink_thumbup:

Later on tonight I will post up some pics onto my Flickr site. :)

My sister called up yesterdary to offer me her extra ticket to see the Foo Fighters at the ACC last night. :wink_thumbup: Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson dropped in to give the crowd a shot of YYZ.

Awesome show.

Good Friday
 

Hi all

My daughter came home from college and we all had dinner. It was a nice, balmy 52 sunny degrees so we went out to the garage and thats where they first saw the boat. They climbed in and were all ready to go. They couldnt believe i bought one. We then checked all the vehicles out for fluids and pressures as they are always on the go. Watched real Madrid and Barcelona play ball. Finally Zeus the Border Collie got his due with his favorite frisbee. Now its off to prepare for tomorrows work day.
I finally took the time to see what came manual wise with the boat and it has all of the service records and original papers from the trailer, Merc manual and original Mariah Manual all in the original Mariah Black zipperd bag. It was a three owner rig and always stored indoors. It shows by its condition inside and out. I will take some pics here and post them.

Happy Easter,

Brian & Andrea
