Hey ! Your squirrels are different from ours. Yours are a little more 'punk-rock'...

Probably same attitude though...

I can one-up you on the eagle.

We have a resident that visits daily on his way home from fishing in the Atlantic

That go-cart is intriguing! I've never seen anything so car-like. I bet Smilo has a bunch running around in his neighbourhood though. They're Florida's national car! Razz

I think I have a 40 HP two stroke twin lying around in a box somewhere left over from snowmobile days. Just wondering what kind of modifications you'd need to give it a bit of a boost?

There was one at the TT last year I think it was or may be the year before with a 600 cc Suzy under it doing the Ramsey Sprint capable of 112mph the guy told us , he was getting about 85 on the strip , she is bad enough with what she has don't egg her on
and ok you may have the white tailed Eagle but you dont get many of them Snowy Backed Eagles , lol

Perfect image for this...



You guys have about as much snow as us. I've been idly watching your weather and you seem to be getting our left-over storms this winter. Another one coming tomorrow here, so look out for you'se guys on Thursday!

Actually, around the neighborhood that I'm renting in until the house is rebuilt, it's more annoying golf carts than anything.

No eagles with snow around here!

I try to collect some shots of the various wildlife in the yard. I'll have to post some up. Most of our Squirrel's are pretty boring grey ones, but we did have a "sport" orange-y one that I got a few pictures of.

I've got one of those sporty squirrels around here... I think he's trying to tell me to check out the new 690 Duke...

I saw him chewing on the flyer for the Moncton bike show... Smart these guys, eh?

49 YEARS!? Wow! I'm not 49 years old!

Well.. I lie... I owned that Honda 90 when you were getting married, so I'm up there...
Congrats on the anniversary! Gives me great hope that SWMBO will put up with me for another... Let's see... add the year, subtract the date, multiply by the weather report (snow)... another 13 years!
Hope we're still as active as you'se guys by then!

Congrats! And thanks for making me feel young J.P. I would have been learning to balance on two wheels about the time Eddy took his vows... Very Happy
