Seasonal check in!.....Well we've had one of the weakest spring seasons I can remember, not much rain and very little grass in the paddocks, what is there is already going to seed!......Temps very high for this time of year, around 26*--30*C warm enough to bring the snakes out early and we've had one minor bush fire, not a good sign of things to come, considering the start of summer is still two months away.

Hope all turns out well.

White frost this morning, when the sun came up I was dropping trees, got 9 nice maples down before the frost began melting. Was happy to be out of the woods when the big drops started falling. Nice n sunny here right now so things are drying up.

So.......I finally found the 2015 loster boat race pics.....many real fast boats but one stood out...."Wild Wild West"...a 28 footer with a zoomed up V-12 Isota (Italian 1050 hoss stock) diesel......she is in no way stock now....these pics show her running in her class. She would come down the 1 mile track smoking like she was afire and well back in the pack.......the thing to remember is that when a boat is way behind the conflicting wakes and prop wash is very debilitating and dangerous...real hard to power out of the back field without flipping..........we were mored about midway in the field.....first pic she is next to last...smoking like crazy.......second pic her turbos reach operating temp, she cleans up and gets underway, she's the little one in the middle, still some soot coming out of her.........LOL third pic...all the same boats are in the pic except her...LOL!!! Glenn came from next to last at the half mile mark to win in the last half mile.....smart diesel that...LOL!!!

That is the one place you don`t want to be in, either be out front or you`re bout screwed back in the big boats wake.

I stole your picture to show folks here your beautiful fall scenery

Nova Scotia is known for its vivid fall colors, that same place this weekend was much less colorful due to the leaves dropping off now but a week ago it was breathtaking beautiful.
