Thanks everybody. There is a nice workbench in the basement I'll be making use of for wine along with all the other hobbies. It might take a year or so to get properly settled in but it will be worth it. Going to build a bottle rack and the 9 yards.

Under 2 weeks now till we get the keys. Can't wait. Winemaking however took a back seat this summer. Last batch was strawberry in the spring. Oh well, such is life. I'll just have to pick up the slack next year.

Strapped the old deer stand into a new tree today. Still have to shoot the crossbow a little more. It's buck or bust this year.

It's only a fish, how bad could it be lol. I've had a walleye or two try and take a bite out of me, and there only 30 or so inches. Can't say I have a burning desire to swim with sharks but i would not pass it up given the chance. Just don't tell my wife lol.

Bottled 57 bottles of peach and spiced apple. Backsweeted the peach alittle too much and it has a fruit punch vibe now. Oops, lesson learned. Thankfully it was only a DB style wine so I only had maybe $20 invested in it. Still might be a good desert wine.

She might be on our money but she's just a figure head. Then again, we didn't have to go to war to gain our freedom so it seems like a fair trade lol

Yep as a child of the clans I'm a little bummed out about that. But they did have a 85% turn out of voter so it's pretty conclusive. Canada parted ways years ago and it seem to be working out for the best.

It was a major upgrade for me. Before I had all my tools in a 5 gallon bucket. It was easy to move about the farms but now that I'm working in a factory the bucket looked pretty stupid. In other news......

Not the first time somebody said that. If I where trying to compensate I would have gotten 2 of the long ones. The though cross my mind but that would be too darn long lol. If down the road I need more storage I can add a top box to the one on the left

Picked myself up a new set of tool boxes on Thursday. It is quite possible than I have the longest toolbox in the shop now. It just fit in the back of my truck with a 1/4 inch to spare lol

Could have filled all my tags in one shot. Lol. http://youtu.be/AOR01Fusae0

I ran 15 gallons of assorted wines through a 1micron filter yesterday and didn't have a problem with clogging. You could run it through both but that's twice the work and twice the cost. I don't know about you but I'm frugal and always conserving energy (aka cheap and lazy lol) so if I can get...

Toronto should not be on that list lol. I lived there for a summer and have no interest on going back.

It's the Canadian way.

Carrying things downstates is the easy part. Going up however, not to much. As for what I'm doing today. I'm enjoying the first weekend I have had off in a long time. The new job is going great. In the wine department I'm watching super kleer work it's magic. The apple is almost transparent...

^ a reason I love living in southern ontario. We do end up with hard winters but not until after Christmas. The deer harvest tells me what the winter is going to be like. Last year in dec there fur coats where the thickest I have ever seen and the amount of fat they had stored was crazy.

That it does, so I'm told. But it's effective range is less than 100 yards. Slugs are still accurate out to 200 yards and rifle rounds out to 1000 with practise

Well you can beat .50 a pound but you ether need a really good friend who grows them or pick your own by moon light when nobody's looking lol

Thanks hokapsig

Yep, that's blue alright. This buying a house thing sure put the breaks on my wine making. Went to see another house today that was more within our price range. No massive wine cellar but there is a utility room that is begging for some harlequin style shelving lol.
