I went for a ride with 2 buddies and I assumed that everyone knew about an "optical illusion" in our area, but neither one had heard of it. Upon seeing it they had to go back and try it again and then again. So I thought I'd mention it here, for anyone near the Port Colborne area, just in case you had not seen it either. When travelling in an EASTERN direction along Lakeshore Rd West at Oakridge Rd, there is a bend in the road just as Lake Erie comes into view. Across the water is a factory, and when first viewed it looks huge, but as you get closer it moves further away! Ergo the optical illusion. If your in the area, check it out, it will amaze!

KICK it up .... Come on folks, this is a great idea by Bob, support your local Legion. Saw a field of red tulips today at Royal Botanical Gardens, but I'd much rather see the SUPPORT.

http://drivers-log.en.softonic.com/ This is Driver's Log, a program I used to use and came to mind this afternoon, not sure if it is the one you had in mind.

As stated "homemade" .... I do not profess to be a programmer. Simply trying to help the guy out, I didn't realize we were being marked.

This is what I use, home made ..... but it works. This has this years info in it so you can see how it works. First page is the gas, second page is a blank gas chart to start next years and the third page keeps track of maintenance costs, extras and insurance and does a yearly total. I like to know this stuff. This is the Canadian version (kilometer and liters) but I have an American version if you wish. (Hope you have Excel)

Cut down my stock Yamaha windshield, but I'm only 5' 7" and the bike is lowered in the rear 1 7/8". For me it is perfect, right at the tip of my nose, so wash blows over my head but breezy. Wife doesn't really notice too much difference. Take a look ......

While golfing this afternoon, we found a wedge on the 10th hole, a Titleist head cover on the 18th and a WALLET on the 15th. Returned the first two on the course and just had the young guy leave with his "100% intact wallet" in his possession, great to see the happiness and relief on his face!! I lost mine 3 years ago in a mad dash to get to the hospital, and a 15 year old girl returned it with the whole $300 intact, had to give her the $$ I was SO relieved and to be honest, amazed ..... something I won't forget and as stated above, something I plan on "paying forward" for as long as I live. Feels great!! I highly recommend it!

Quick question: My buddy is putting the clutch back together, he wanted to know " if the clutch springs are torqued to a certain setting or just good and snug"?? thanks

Okay ... back on subject. Went to the Grand Island Bar-B-Que across the river in Dunnville. I hate to slag a local business, but omg. Had a SINGLE scoop yesterday for ..... hold on for it ..... $3.52. Regular cone, no sprinkles... nothing extra ... $3.52 I find that expensive!

Ummm.... avid reader or librarian also? If the later ... check out the t-shirt she just scored. http://www.cafepress.ca/+librarian_womens_vneck_tshirt,114728067 I thought it was quite good and she got a ton of comments at work ....

Talking about ice cream: My wife is a Children's Librarian, so part of her job is to do kids programs: craft, song and books. She recently did one that was a BIG HIT with the kids .... home made ice cream. Get two freezer bags (one smaller than the other) In the small one put in 1 cup of milk, two tbsp sugar and 1/4 tsp vanilla and seal tight. In the second bag put 6 tbsp of rock salt and fill half the bag with ice cubes. Put in the smaller bag and zip the big one closed, now mash it for 5 minutes. Open the little baggie and enjoy a scoop of HOMEMADE ice cream. Recipe can be doubled, but any more wont work out. Kids or grandkids will love it .....

Well done ..... pick away matey!! Looks fancy shmancy !!

Cool to read ..... hope your having a blast! I thought I was just getting up for a pee at 2:30, but I MUST be hearing your alarm .....

And .... is there a specific model of Flanders bars you are all getting, or does it depend on the amount of "rise & pull back" required?
-
I've been retired for a year, didn't want to... but situations arose. I thought I'd find some job I LIKE and do that part time ..... so far everything I've applied for has not even resulted in an interview. Recessions over? my donkey! Good luck.

I think we should have a separate thread just for sightings. Maybe have a map linked to it so we can pin point our sighting, and then a separate little area for "Hey, that was me!" answers. Just an idea ...... from a retired guy, looking out at a grey day. Sorry Freebird, I know .... like you have nothing better to do than jump at our every whim. Just an idea, is all. Maybe something for the future?
-
I agree, for some this may be a difficult task, but for some this shouldn't be that hard. If nothing has moved soon I'll change it up ..... just had our 55th year reunion at high school, thats were I got the idea.

Thanks a lot .... I will definitely let you know when we cement plans. I don't think we are riding though, probably have to bring the truck for the wife to load up .... Thanks Again!!

We plan a trip in the first weekend of June to Windsor. Decided to stay over the night, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for places to stay and, of course, eat. We are going to Willistead Park for Art in the Park. Thanks folks!!

I went through Niagara yesterday, and wanted to add two things: The Motorcycle Museum is closed down. Parking is insane around the Falls, prices are through the roof, BUT .... go south on Niagara Parkway about 1 km from the Horseshoe Falls is an area called Dufferin Islands, FREE parking here. Jot this down, you WILL need it.

I haven't heard this asked yet: How big is that oil field if it all drained out? 5000 barrels/day for how long?

Now I hear BP is trying to limit their financial responsibility in all this, I smell a rat.
