For the past thee weeks the column in the Community Voice was on woodworking. How to set up your shop and a bit on what equipment and how I placed them in my own shop, along with some tips and things on different topics,  concerning woodworking.  So if you happen to be interested in wood working and see the paper in one of many stores in the North Bay area pick up a copy.  Talk soon.

I have decided this year to do a bit more feeding of the deer as, well my wife and I just love to sit and watch then out in our back yard.  Don’t think anything is more beautiful than to sit and watch nature in it’s fullest.  Guess go and pick up a bag or two of cracked corn, as our boys are coming up in a week for Christmas so might get a few more come round so they can have a good look at them.  Something they don’t have down in the big city.  So best go, thought I would share this picture of one that came by earlier today.The picture was taken out side our back door facing north west, enjoy. Talk soon.

Well wife and I got to looking for some old catalogues this afternoon, finally found them, but took a bit of looking. Over the years I have kept a few of them as I like to look back and reminisce a bit. A strange thing though happened while looking for them,  a picture of me back in the year 1959 turned up with me sitting on the back of my horse Jennie.  I got to tell you it sure brought back memories for me.  I have been writing of her and me together and some of the times we had and now finding this old picture sure is something.  Guess one might say an early Christmas present.  Talk Soon

Well found an old cast iron beige sink awhile back.  Has one large side and a smaller sink on the other side. They used to make them for washing vegetables.  It sure is different but I got a different woman than most folks,  as she likes them kind of things.  Took me the better part of the day to get it installed with my brother in laws help,  but once all said and done it looks great.  Got to say the thing weighs a ton and sure glad a fellow doesn’t have to lift it any more. Took me six times putting it in to get it to work.  One thing for certain no one will be running off with it.   The old sinks like that are real hard to find any more and I don’t know why folks don’t like them.  They sure look nice and when you put hot or cold water in them they hold the temperature.  Well it’s in with new taps and drains.  Full days work but well worth the time and trouble.  Talk Soon.

Well figured we should go out and cut our tree while the getting is good. More snow on the way and as it was I had to walk through four feet of snow. But it’s worth it as the wife, I and Boys love a real tree.  So thought we would share and will put up one once its up and showing off.  Talk Soon
