    My go to paddling canoe is a Mad River Explorer 15' (Royalex). Last year of Royalex production. 60lbs. And solo, I'll flipflop and man the bow seat in the stern position. Less bow (stern) out of the water.

    Canoe is where it's at imo. Can carry so much more cargo and get anyplace a kayak can. And WAY easier to fly-fish out of a canoe.

    Got the small half bath in that old house all put back together and painted. The upstairs toilet is sort of above that small soffit section and the main stack runs to the right. The plumbers hacked away all the soffit framing. Yours truly got to redo all of it. Ended up painting the entire ceiling as the original paint was so old. The wall paint blended nicely. Replaced the light fixture as well. It's a little off center as there's no junction box. It was just screwed to the bead board and the old screw holes were just too worn out. Shifted it 1/2".

    It’s getting to the point with cars that if you don’t have warning light on during your daily drive it’s a win.
    These cars (all of them) suck so fuckin bad now there is no way anyone is going to be able to afford to fix them. The dam complaining about everything is getting old.. Time for 90’s car technology to come back…. LOL

    I agree and I don’t know anything about the tech involved. I do know it’s expensive to buy and expensive to fix. That four runner I bought has push button start, to old for that shit.
