Summer vacation pics

Well back to reality for me today, spent 17 days touring around with the family, we did a lot of boating but didn't take many pics, you've all seen lots of my boat pics so here's some other stuff we did.

Went to stay at a buddy's place near Edmonton for a few days for some quading and what not, ATV parking only.

Candice and I did the beer gardens again this year, this past Saturday and raised $3400.00 profit to go towards more playground equipment, I never took any pics at night time when it was actually going on :yell: next year.

Had a real nice time though, can't wait for next year.
 
Thanks for the invite! Now get back to work, and pick my bote up ;)


Not sure when? I'm going to Iowa this week, asked about Indiana this morning and the trouble is there are empty trucks around Indiana all the time that can haul back for us, he's having a hard time finding empty trucks near Iowa so I've been doing those runs, he usually tries to even it out so I'm going both places and not getting bored with the same run, we get the majority of our snowmobile trailers from Stealth in Bristol and that season is approaching fast so I would think I'll get runs there soon, I hope anyway, need the extra cash too, we have 2 of our own trucks and we have both been going to Iowa, I'm on the list for the first available IN trip and should be able to give you anywhere from 3-7 days notice, sucks you have to wait but it's out of my hands.

Nah, I was just giving you a hard time... pretty awesome of ya to even offer up your services! If it work out it does, if not... it don't.

Vacay looks awesome.... one day I'll be able to take as much time off as my bank account likes.
 
I hope it works out, I'm empty going east anyway, 6 months ago I was bitching about too many IN trips, thats the way she goes I guess.
 
Great pics John. Thanks for sharing. Lotta good times going on up there. Looks like John is liking that I/O,,,,,:thumb:.

LOL, the only reason I had it is because with the warm weather the water went down so much dad was having a hard time getting it on and off the lift, I went and put the Eluder on the lift and took it to my place for a few days till I could get help moving the lift out farther, I must admit its nice driving a newer boat though, I still like the way my boat handles better.
 
Looks like everyone had fun. I'm going to our river cottage today for a few days. Can't wait to get there and relax on the water for a few.
 
Missed this pic, while we were setting up for the beer gardens Papa Bob (my Dad) bought the kids all day passes for the jumpers at the beach and hung out with them, Hanging with Papa will insure an unlimited supply of cotton candy and junk food. no wonder they didn't want to go to bed that night, all the other kids are jumping and mine are eating junk food, lol, good times with grandpa, then he sends them home for us to deal with.
