Challenge #3- Driving and things.
Depending on how long we have until the next set of challenges, I will also be partaking in the drinking challenge…but until then. Here we go!Ok, work has been very busy to say the least, and I'm not going anywhere soonish that's pic worthy so I figured I'll show you my drive to work everyday. It's 25km each way and takes 15-20 min door to door, and most of it is country road and main highway. It is a very easy drive, which is why I was able to take pics the whole time!!
First. My car is not cool...at all. It's really a huge turd. I actually recall Jeremy Clarkson saying that it is the "worst car ever". That being said, I am/was a mechanic, I found the car and it was basically new 7 yrs ago with 20,000km on it. The old guy who had it first, went to the pharmacy and church and that was it! With a new baby on the way and not wanting big payments we bought it for a song. The bad side of being a mechanic is that I can fix anything that goes wrong very cheaply, hence why I'm still driving it.
Enough talking...here is the donkey and my drive!
sweet eh?
make sure the radio is set to awesome
* side note* I'm also a massive musical theatre nerd…
my oldest daughter is responsible for the princess stickers
and we begin
stuff in a field
this roundabout is very new and utterly mind boggling for some of the people around here
corn
getting on the highway
foot on the floor…not even kidding...
in walmart we trust
cool old locomotive in town
tank
and coffee…best in town...nothing fancy
mmm…
across the street from the coffee shop is the river, lots of shipping traffic and boats. Separates Canada and the US.
Michigan
and last but not least, the entire reason there is a town here…Chemical Valley. All sorts of good/bad stuff gets refined and processed at all of the plants.
Anyway, that's the drive to work. Sorry for the massive amount of pics.

^ Snowy, in a word, yes. If you happen to be fishing and get a bit too close or accidentally drift into their waters, they appear out of thin air in a large boat and politely ask you your business, check your ID if they are being extra diligent, and tell you to get back to your waters. They don't mess around.

Great pics, Mahlon. I've been in Ontario for 15 years and never made it to Sarnia. No reason, I suppose.
If I ever go back to British Columbia to visit my family I'll take pics of me jumping from one side of 0 Avenue to the other. In some places the only thing separating Canada from the US is a shallow ditch.

Thanks Zwer, unless you are going to the states, or specifically to Sarnia, there is no real reason to come here. It has a pretty bad reputation for being a scuzz-hole because of the heavy industry, but it's a great little city and there is water on 2 sides with great beaches!! Nice and quiet!

I'm the king of terrible photos lately…
Stalked this herd of elk while out walking the dog today:

^^
Dude, do you realize that some hunters work their entire lives and don't get that close to a herd?!?! And then, you take the dog for a pleasant stroll and stalk up on them??? Side note, I love the way an elk herd smells. It's like horses, but musky and sweeter. -
I know it man. I have two elk hunts this year and wont even see one…
I dig that smell two. Usually means i'm only about an hour away from tenderloin cooked over the camp fire.
-
I live right by the wildlife refuge where they've been reintroduced to the Wichitas, and have permission to hunt this primo spot. I was scouting this spring, and saw like 10 cows with calves in tow. They were still showing spots and running and jumping. It was quite incredible. Really hoping for a freezer full of elk this year.

Catching up…...Max needs to slow down or he'll have no indigo left by the end of this thing.

Been a while since I had the chance to catch up here. Some great photos and evo.
Never got the chance to wish bon voyage to Todd either. Hope all's well back home down under.
