Wow, that’s a pretty impressive sight.
It really was, they are huge. The biggest one was Pride of Baltimore II, the next one was Spanish, Nao Trinidad, a replica of Magellan's flag ship. It was neat to even see them from afar. The only one we saw close up was a smaller one but very prettiest too, the HMCS Oriole, a Royal Canadian Navy ship from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Apparently we are now completely open to attacks from the North-East due to the ship being away

. But the boys didn't want us to go on board, they're shy of people.

Tall ships came to Midland. We didn't get a chance to see them close up, the big rain came.

I was on a boat just like the one in the second picture a number of years ago, when I was docked in Charlottetown,PE. I was right in the kitchen working on a propane stove. Was neat to be inside one of those boats.

Decided to get some fresh laying hens. Wife picked them up today and brought home 3 ducks. Never raised them before, I guess we’ll see how it go!

Apparently there all different. A white crested, a blue Swedish, and a blue runner. That’s pretty much everything I know about ducks so this should be interesting!

I wonder why there was this grinding noise from the front end of the truck, I see nothing wrong!

some grease'll fix it right up
But some more pondering convinced me to install new brake disks and pads.

If you can hear it grinding doesn’t that mean it working?!
Looks like another project marked off the list.

I think son is ready to start running the 4 wheeler, but the batter was dead as a door nail. I wanted to bring it up to the shop to go over it.
I think I have fully embraced my red neck!
If it works is it still a dumb idea?
