I must admit to being intrigued by the job. Too bad it was so fatiguing. I look forward to hearing about your time in Canada. We used to vacation just north of Lake of the Woods and later in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. Fishing was always great.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82618797339149088.post-27740883089112294562015-05-03T15:39:05.466-07:002015-05-03T15:39:05.466-07:00Good advice Mark.

But I have a problem, heading to the states for the winter and returning home for the summer in Canada I am a snowbird. You are something a little different. ( I can say this after meeting the two of you) I know it must have webbed feet because you love to be on the water, and it eats fish and I'm sure it's adapted to eating mosquitos by now. I have an idea it's a cross between a Canadian goose and a bald eagle and it always has a smile on it's face. We'll still have to find a name for it, but there is no rush, you'll have time to think while on a lake in paradise.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17783396306558890246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82618797339149088.post-71604118016314084702015-04-27T07:19:05.165-07:002015-04-27T07:19:05.165-07:00Sounds like a great place to spend the summer and ...Sounds like a great place to spend the summer and the fact that there are no restrooms to clean, even better!

We've heard of neat jobs, also, but we have no desire to have someone tell us when we have to work.
