well I took a day off... its been months and month working 25 hr's a day 8 days a week.. ( things you have to do when you work for yourself) today was a great day to just play hookie...

I took the bike out for a run for about an hour... always good to just get out on an old twisty turny road and run it like you were 16 years old... without a care in the world... man I love riding...

ok that was done... coffee with my wife on the deck and wala off to a small dock on the Bay of Funday to jump on a budys old fishing boat for an afternoon of a few brew and watching the whales go by.

the one pic I tried to take and the batteris were dead would have been the best. 2 whales went right beside the boat.. could have reached down into the water and touched them...

very cool.... I remeber now why I loved working out on the ocean the time that I did before opening the shop...

oh well times like this are better anyways..

I will post some pics later. I just had a big seafood plater and now its time to shower off the salt water smell and git to bed.. long week this week have to make up a day....LOL

yeah thats 10min drive in just about any direction from my house.. the pic of the fault line rocks is about 1/2 hr sail so about 25 miles off shore then about 20min sail and you come to a place with a bunch of Islands and thats where the whales hang out... just about half way from new Brunswick Canada and East Port in the state of Maine...

no better place to be if you just want a great and eazy day with no worries... well the boat may not start, a whale could hit you and flip ya over, the wind here can come up with out any worrning and gust up to 50knots and flip you over... but today not a riple in the water excepet from whales and other marin life.. oh and the od boat trying to catch a good pic of a whale....LOL

no whales here, but i did go to the oklahoma aquarium today and check out the sharks. then returned to watching shark week on discovery! :popcorn:

We watched a bunch of sharks yesterday aswell but we see them all the time here... and they are not in a tank... they come right beside the boat to see what your doing... they are normaly around 10 feet and up...
