Default Retirement

Bob,

Fantastic...congrats....you better start building up a good stockpile for Lucifer. If you are out there 5 days of the week you just might clear your land sooner that you think. LOL.

Once again Bob, Congratulations.

Cheers

Mike Timoshyk

Can't swing a trip to Ottawa on such short notice...got trucks to recover...another Ford to soon join Geoff's Aus FAT and my Blondie....

Back from Gracies and it was nice to have met some of the Ottawa crowd. Special thanks to Alex for the drive to and from the restaurant.

Some very good food, great conversation, and the waitresses were not half bad either. I would love to take one (or two) home but they would never survive a Manitoba winter...they need to put a few more pounds on.

Default Impromptu Gracie's Call

Alex, Well done. Your role as social butterfly is well appreciated. The Gracies meet was enjoyable and made a rainy night in Ottawa a little more tolerable. Guest wise, it was good to put a face to the name - welcome to Ottawa, Rob. Geoff WB and Sally made the trek from Toronto in Geoff's Jeep, which he took great pride in showing off. Funny thing was that all of us walked by it without noticing it - the camoflage pattern in the dark really did make it hard to see. Nice rig.

Geoff and Alex spent a good amount of time holding hands and commiserating over something or other...:



The select few: Jessica, our server, Geoff, Sally, Grant, Bob C, Guy Vapeur, Rob Love and Alex Blair.


It was a good get together and we plan to host other MLU'ers who come to town. So, if you are in Ottawa, hit the Rotters up on MLU!
