Route takes us near one of 5 dealers that has a rear spring bumper in all of the US. Any of you Sprinter shoe's ever lost one of those? We've lost two so far.

How's this for a kerblammo? To make matters worse, I was loaded. Twenty minutes from the drop. But, that's not the half of it; when the service guy comes out, he can't get the lug nuts off. Seems that whoever had the wheel off last, whether it was my inspection mechanic or a tire place, torqued the lug nuts to a zillion foot pounds. So, service guy calls for a tow truck from his shop.

Over three hours later :mad:, the tow truck shows up. I have him tow my van to a Firestone dealer. After an hour, it's done. Long and short of it is, I delivered seven hours late. Had the tire not blown, I still would have been late. Four minutes late. :( Aaagghhh! Now at home, needing to have the van checked out for safety in the morning.

The crap you Americans pass off as Canadian bacon it Ohta be illegal...lol
If I thought I could refrigerate it next time in Ontario I would buy a slab and come through Erie and stop off at your place that you can see for yourself it is not ham

I've had Canadian Bacon when we used to camp in Peterbourgh when I was a kid, it looked like ham tasted kinda like bacon,

What kind of garlic will you plant this fall?

Mostly hardneck, but I'll try my hand at some softneck. Customers like different things. Hardnecks have a more pronounced flavor, but at a lower shelf life than softneck. Other reasons are that you can braid softnecks, but you get scapes from hardnecks (Mmmm!)

I'm going to focus on around five kinds for mass producing, then have a lesser amount of several more kinds in test beds. If I can't grow enough to sell next year, I'll regrow it all, minus what we'll use and give away.
