I'm truly sorry this is late, but all Stovebolters worldwide join me in wishing our Canadian brothers and sisters a very happy Canada Day!!
From the beautiful scenic shores of the Maritimes to the majestic shores of the Pacific, from ice vistas in the North to the (somewhat) warmers climes of the Canadian plains ... and not to overlook for a moment the rich multicultural warmth of my boyhood home in Les Cantons de L'Est en Quebec ... you truly have a remarkable home, history and culture!
Happy Birthday, Canada!
To all, please take a moment to be inspired by a very beautiful rendition of the Canadian National Anthem

John posted a response to Super55 in the BC Bolters forum with some pictures. It had a link back to a Saga.
In hunting down the Canadian flag that's already on the server, I came across the headline story in the July 2006 News page that is about our road trip to see Randy "Mapleleaf" Jewers in Nova Scotia. It was such a great trip. Some neat pictures in news story, too.
(Now you know where I got the Canadian image for the News Corner. )
Happy birthday to our many good friends up north!

Another year and time to wish our Canadian Bolters "Happy Canada Day!!" Just from looking at those who check in at the Welcome Centre, it's been great to see an increase in the number of Canadians who have joined Stovebolt. (Some go directly to the SHOPS! ) So, let us know what you're doing for your holiday weekend. And be sure to include pictures of you and your truck(s).

Thanks for the greetings. Not much traveling going on this weekend as our proximity to Toronto creates substantial traffic which we try to avoid. That being said, if the skies clear up there is a cruise night we'd like to attend 30 miles east of us tonight. Other than that we're just chilling. Take care you all south of the border and hope to see you soon.
Happy Canada Day to all our Canadian Stovebolters!

Wishing our fabulous Canadian Bolters "Happy Canada Day!!" Looking only at those who check in at the Welcome Centre, it's been great to see the number of the Canadians who roll into Stovebolt. We know others jump right into The Shops Area!
So, let us know what you're doing for your holiday weekend. And be sure to include pictures of you, family and your truck(s).

Thanks Bobb! I always feel better when I see you have posted -- let's me know all is well in the Stovebolt Universe. And I still have webbed toes and fingers from South Bend ...
