Well, an estimated 5-8 day installation and 2 day driving each way turned into 1 day driving each way and a 3 day install! Everything worked exactly as planned for a change, nice when you're 15 hours out of town... I'll post pix later.

I drove 1331 Km (831 miles) to get home yesterday, it was a 20 hour day for me. Training at the facility on how to use the various sound systems, then driving the 831 miles to get home. Satellite radio, coffee and a lot of junk food works wonders to make the drive entertaining.

I've got 185 emails to wade through, bear with me... Thumbs Up

(kitchen looks effing AWESOME though, Sparky did a phenomenal job, before and after pictures will be posted in a different thread. It's gone from a utilitarian kitchen for the last 6 years to..... 'eclectic'. I love it!)

I went way north about 2 years ago. Spent about 6 hours looking for bear. No such luck. This time I'm driving up. I want to see a damn bear and a moose. I'll shoot them with my camera.

Oh, a couple of favorite shots of the last time I went north:

A random abandoned dump truck on a logging road, and the system I put in last time. I'm expanding it this time...

you want to see a bear Curt. Take the gondola up at whistler during the summer. I see them every time I head up there to mountian bike ride.

I saw this one last year at Whistler. Those aren't real bears anyways, they are planted there to attract and eat tourists like you guys..... Mr. Green

Furry Creek course is nice. Whistler is better when you can get the Bro deal up there? $50 for a round. ahhhh god its nice to know people. Smile

If only I could play better.

This fine specimen is a REAL bear. Taken just east of Blue River BC, at the side of the highway at about 7:30 AM last year.

yeah its a weird place to build a golf course.
I find it always cold when I go through there. probably because of the big ass hill shadows it.
I've never played that course but for some reason when I drive through I always feel like I need to stop and just play the course.

So does that mean my YA board is on it's way to Terry?

Smile

Enjoy your trip!!!

Argh, the name 'Furry Creek' just sounds so very very very wrong!

Actually I believe that's Elizabeth Manley of Manley labs. I'm a bit younger than that.. Smile

I'd assume that's her dad next to her.

After her dad died, she continued with the company. They make recording studio grade amps n'stuff, all out of tubes.
