With Hanna expected here Sunday, I decided to take advantage of a
beautiful
warm sunny day. There's been way too few this summer.... wettest
August on
record says the weatherman.
I had to drop the wife off at her mother's nursing home and
finally got on
the road at 1100 hrs.
Reached the launch ramp in Mahone Harbour, Mahone Bay at about
1230hrs and
quickly got underway...too quickly, as I left my digital camera,
binoculars
and cell phnoe on the truck seat.
Talked to a boat returning and he advised me the water had been
like glass
earlier but the wind had picked up making the water rougher.
I cranked up all 25 horses and left the harbour behind as I
headed south
east past Loye Island to my port and Hermans Island to my
starboard. next i
turned east, north & west to circle Backman Island, which has a
nice little
beach and cove for anchoring. After circling a lone sailboat , I
dipped down
south west, changing to northg to checkout the anchoring
cove/beach on
Coveys Island.
Next it was a streach of open water so I could pass through the
very shallow
water between small Goat island and Rous Island. keeping Sheep
island on my
starboard, I headed north west to Andrews Island where I beached
the Yukon
and went ashore for a bit. Lastly i played around the outer
reached of
Mahone harbour for a bit and retrieved the boat around 1500 hrs.
Since I am a member of the Mahone Islands Conservation
Association, I wanted
to see the protected (from development) islands up close.
http://www.mahoneislands.ns.ca/news/inthenews.shtml
Sure wish I had my camers with me...I could have shown the stark
contrast
between the beautiful islands still in their natural state and
the ones all
tore up by the CFA summer crowd with their overscale houses, hugh
rock walls
etc.

Sounds like a great time. Wish you'd taken your camera. What is
the 'CFA
summer crowd'? Are they the Americans you accused of ruining the
islands
the last time you brought this up?

Oh, and since you brought up family, how is your mom doing? Hope
all is
well. Do you ever take your son on these excursions? He'd probably
enjoy
getting out.

Nice report. Keep 'em coming!

Ah Johnny.........
you are correct for once...the majority of people who buy up and
strip the islands are summering Americans.
Bull****...sounds like another Harrytale to me.

My son works for a living , so he can't come out on a Friday.
Glad to hear that bit of news. When did he start? I'll bet you're
relieved
as hell.

As for weekends, he seems to prefer running around with his
friends......... hard to believe eh?
No.
He's still at home so he's hardly working "for a living". He's
working for a few bucks to blow with his buddies - and ignoring Dad
in the process.



Don't you worry about dad. I've got a good bit of Scottish, Welsh and
Dutch blood in me.
We're no nonsense when paying your way is concerned.

Too much Scotch, if you don't mind an unbiased opinion.


Good point. Now the lazy son is the breadwinner? What next?

Serious (well, sort of :) )question, Don. If you are walking on the
sidewalk and see a mound of dog**** in front of you, do you stop to
talk to it?

No? I didn't think so. So why do you converse with the mounds of
dog**** here, like Florida Jim, DK, Herring, Reggie, et cetera?


Don,
You really need to start obeying Harry better, he is getting ****ed off
that you are not following directions. When Harry says jump, your
correct response is "YES SIR, HOW HIGH, SIR".




Now *that* is funny. And, sadly, it's true.

Sorry, I don't belong to some stinking drone army led by a 'way over the
hill' Lt Colonel.
We think & act independently.

All three of you? Do you deny any collusion to bring about the demise of
this newsgroup, or Chuck's Place.

Remember, Harry referred to the 'five of us' watching the action.

You'll have to talk to Harry about that.
Remember, my goal was to clean this place up and flush out the numerous
drones who followed 'your' orders to punish Chuck because we were
confronting you here and Chuck decided that what happens here, stays here.
As far as Chucks place... I went there with high expectations after tiring
of the endless crap here.
Then one of your drones 'invited' us back here before your private army
overwhelmed Chucks haven.


You can't answer a question about collusion? Did Harry forbid you from
doing so?

Orders? That's a myth of the trio's creation. I've given no orders.


He's full of ****, John, or just delusional. I'm sure WAFA has emailed
him with instructions.

What do you think of Harry cross posting OT political cut and paste into
3 to 5 unrelated NG's?
Do you really expect a truthful answer? Gotta follow the *party* line.


Why does this concern either of you? Neither of you discuss boats, other
than to snipe at the boats of others. Reggie doesn't even have the balls
to post detailed photos of his boat, and you know what, I can't recall you
ever discussing your boat or posting photos of it.

This is not a boating newsgroup. What difference does it make what is
discussed here...or not, or whether posters from "non-boating" newsgroups
pop in here?

"Unrelated newsgroups." What a laugh. Guitars, travel trailers, cloned
grandchildren, golf, diaper cruises, old military farts discussing their
glory days. What the hell does any of that have to do with "rec.boats"?

And your boy Reggie is the one who did the most to bring rec.boats down to
where it is.

So...



You have shorter memory than I thought.




If WAFA was sincere about his intentions he wouldn't post here, he would
behave at Chuck's place, and he would be a prominent poster at
thehulltruth. He's a narcissistic instigator and nothing less.

Don says he is his own man, so I thought he might give an honest answer..


If you must know..I skip most of the political stuff, only bothering on
occasion to swat the out of line gnats.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, that Harry with his childish name calling, insults and political
posts IS a bothersome little thing, huh?

Hold on a sec... according to the post time stamps, just 28 minutes ago you
said you were joining JustWaits crusade.
What's up with that?

And I haven't replied to HARRY, unless of course as his puppy, you
think you are one in the same.
