Great photos, Roger. Looks like a good place to live.
Walking along the river in Saskatoon yesterday and spotted these two guys trolling by. It was fairly warm yesterday (about 24 degrees F), but still would be cold sitting in an aluminum boat in 32 degree water.
Amen to that. I’ve been in an aluminum canoe on trout stream waters. You can feel the cold in the bottom of the canoe even in summer months. Of course, if it’s 24 degrees air and the water is 32, maybe it feels warmer?

Been spending a little time at the Car shop helping brother with a Clutch job on the Winston. Had to take clutches and pressure plates to our People in the Twin Cities. Jeff ( Brother) got the 33 Packard painted and ready to go back on frame. Now if the Motor would ever get done,been almost 2 years!! It’s getting so expensive to do frame off Restorations that the Packard may be our last one. It’s been great, but over the years we’ve got burnt out and time to let the kids take over. Hope you enjoy the pics
Have a good one out there!

Wow! COOL!
I helped my uncle rebuild a Chevelle SS as a kid. Kept the fire going in the winter time and was the gofer for tools, food, drinks ect. ect. ect. We spent a couple of years rebuilding it from the frame up. I fell in love with the SS. When it was finished he took me for one short ride. What a sound! What a special car! And then he sold it a day or two later to one of his friends for a small profit. I was devastated. Still makes me sad to think about it.

Ripster,
Those pictures bought back old memories of the first car I drove on the road [without a licence at 14 solo]
It was a 1948 Packard 6. I can also remember seeing an early Packard 16.
