OT: HF Jets lounge: Crestview FTW!

[Hammer Slammer]

Crestview - I'm just inside the border, along the creek. I'm guessing you're between Sturgeon and the creek? I'm on the other side of the creek.

Actually we will be on the other (west) side of the creek, I was going by what Google Maps told me haha.

They want to sell quick so we are trying to get financing in place by tomorrow. Kinda hard but we'll see.

Welcome to the 'hood! I'm too am on the west side of the creek. Was it the house on School or the one on Wharton?

 

[Hammer Slammer]

God it's great to be a Blue Jays fan right now.

Hitting the ball hard and often, getting great starting pitching and defense.

Not to mention Edwin Encarnation.

3rd best winning percentage in baseball so far. Only a quarter of the way through the season but they are beating teams in the AL East which is something they haven't been able to do the past 20 years.

When I say beating, I mean sweeping

Yeah I love watching the games this year (any that I can catch, too much to ask to watch all of them haha). Crappy end to this one but winning 9 out of 10 is okay I guess.

Nah, neither of those. Not sure I want to get any more specific on here.

Then how are we going to get to the house warming party?

I live off of Lumsden

[Hammer Slammer]

In the next couple days just prowl around for Sold signs and camp out in the front lawn.

Reyes has me so bummed out atm - from an emotional high to whatever it is I'm feeling

Thanks again to the creator of my avatar, I think it was YWG? Fun Cup ride, reminded me of the 2010 times before the Jets came back.

Ah well, face feels 100 pounds lighter now.

First big storm of the year. Its just raining buckets out right now. Lightning every second.

Good. Then it won't get that wet when the water comes.

 

[wpgsilver]

I love thunderstorms, something beautiful about them.

 

[irunthepeg]

Where are you guys? I'm north of the city and ain't no thundah!

 

[JC Numminen]

Fair point

It sucks when you are a farmer in May though.

But I agree. The other day a big one came close, but missed and was beautiful to watch.

Last year at camp, we had a massive thunderstorm the night before first session ended (the day when a bunch of kids go home, and are replaced by other kids). And it just didn't hit us at all. We didn't even get a drop of rain. It surrounded us completely, and we could sit outside and just watch it.

It was amazing.

Near Brandon, MB

Wow, there's quite a few of us Crestview kids on here! (Westwood sucks! South of Portage sucks!)

I've lived in Crestview pretty much my entire life since moving to the 'Peg in '73, and my wife has lived her entire life in Crestview. It's only ever 2 degrees of separation here. My father went to Lion's Club meetings with your dads, or played hockey with them, my mother may have served your parents bevvies on a Transair plane, my father in law probably taught you at Bruce or Lincoln, my mother in law probably groomed your family's dog(s) or I or my wife went to school with your older sibs or parents etcetera etcetera!

Superstore may suck, but it sucks less than Safeway.

I should probably mention that we moved to Westwood when I was about 12 and my parents still live there!

That stuff is typical Winnipeg. I just found out that the guy who owns a restaurant I like going to used to live next door to my parents.

Of all the truly craptacular shopping experiences I've ever had a significant portion occured at Superstore. Wrong prices scanning, bad quality, rude and ignorant staff, rude and ignorant customers etc. I've always liked the atmosphere at Safeway but wonder how anyone can afford to buy their groceries there. I find I split most of my grocery shopping now between Sobeys and Costco.

Ohhhh! Explains it!

I bet they are all busy talking up farmer ladies at FarmersOnly anyway.

Can't say I am on that site yet. But I recall seeing PS241 on there somewhere....

I couldn't enjoy the rain for all the buckets of water it poured in through my roof. Procrastination over. Roofer called for an estimate. ****, I tried to get estimates last year but the two companies I called never came or even called.

Adamson Roofing. Friend of mine. Probably can't get you a deal but he's a legit business guy and you won't get hosed.

Tell him you know the guy who did his video voiceover work, might get you... well it won't get you anything

I can't imagine how he feels. He was a big part of the winning streak so it's hard to get mad at him but he really screwed the pooch last night.

I didn't know that Brandon qualified as surrounding area.

Do it yourself. It honestly isn't that hard, but it's nice to have help.
