I got to meet him on several occasions and actually sold him a crossbow. He was quite a character and liked to laugh. He actually came in the shop to find out what was involved in buying firearms in Canada. He didn't think he would have the patience to go through all of the training and testing...
I've been buying 2 year old Balderson's cheese for years now. It is expensive but I limit myself to three slices a day, usually at lunch on a sandwich. I've tried many others but nothing competes with it.
2018 Ford F150 Super Crew 4x4 6.6' box 5.0 ltr. V8 in Magma Red with almost 100000 miles on it. I know I need to spend some money on it this year. I'd like to have a new one but prices are scary now. This picture was taken on a cloudy day so the colour doesn't show well.

Our lives are better left to chance
I could've missed the pain
But I'd had to...
No, not what I expected. I lived most of life thinking I would never be able to afford to retire, but lo and behold, here I am and I don't have any intention of going back to work.
I officially retired in September of 2020 to help my wife deal with cancer for which she started Chemo in March of...
My wife passed away April18/23 so I've been alone now for 21 months and I am doing pretty good with my own company. I think of her often but not in a painful way now. I can think of all the good the good things we had and even some of the bad without feeling sad. I had been alone for about seven...
