    Time for some fun

    I’m not quite as old as some of you, but a few things I remember: 1) Getting your fine stemware from Texaco. 2) Super Slider Snow Skates. 3) When a .22 was considered a good present for a 10 year old boy. 4) Prince Albert tobacco in those flask-shaped cans. (Cf .22 above) 5) Seatbelts in...

    Vancouver Island Meet Up

    Yes sir! And you're in the greater Vancouver area, right? So a quick ferry ride and you're here. Your travel time would be about the same as mine, if you're up the Valley a ways.

    Vancouver Island Meet Up

    Sounds like a great idea! I floated this a few months back, and would love to attend! Any day of the week can work for me. I’m heading off on holidays for a month at the end of the week, so perhaps someone would be interested in trying to herd the various cats in the Island/in the greater...

    Stuart’s big dumb lathe

    Nice lathe, nice move and nice layout. Saves going up and down stairs to a shop. Or maybe even getting off the couch depending on how you set up the rest of the room.

    Show us your pups

    I agree. We often move so fast we don't see the beauty all around us. We moved to Campbell River 23 years ago. It's a place of breathtaking beauty. My wife and I agreed that if we ever took the beauty or granted we didn't deserve to live here and would move away. Still loving it. Having...
