Re: Hi from Ontario

My father was born in Germany and mom is from Kansas City. I love German food and always have bacon drippings on hand. Every now and then dad would take over the kitchen. We knew we were in for a treat. What's your favorite dish?

I don't know how to attach a picture. when I click Image, it asks for a url ????

There are several ways to do this.

If you go advanced and click on the paperclip it will bring up a window that let you browse for your photo. I find it easy when I attach the photo to my desktop then grab it from there. But you can browse other areas for your photo. When she select the photo then download it it will show as an attachment. I think I just confused you? If you get the URL can copy and paste it in between the two URLs which will also post a photo or an address bar now I really confuse you. When do it it's so simple it a become second nature.

Try clicking advanced and the paperclip and see if that doesn't work for you.

We got it a few minutes after the picture was taken, 6.8 kn for a Catalina 30 standard Catalina 30 sale with a 150% jib sail. We were also light both water tanks were empty and so was the holding tank with about 15 gallons of diesel and no provisions to speak of.

Chowder man you must've been a sailor?

Re: What we look like - 2014

That is a really great looking boat Guts. I bought an 50' ketch rigged sail boat in early '80 and sold it in '83. Though I didn't get to spend a lot of time on it due to my job my wife and kids did. We sailed out of South Florida at the time as well as lived aboard it for about a year. It was truly capable of sailing it almost any where we wanted. My wife was the sailor in the family but it was fairly easy for 1 person to sail. She taught me how to do most of it.

Re: What we look like - 2014

My facelessbook friends have seen pics of me recently, but for those who haven't, here I am with my identical twin on July 4th at his home. I'm on the left, and at that point I had dropped 24#. As of today I'm down 33#, and am at my target weight of 210-215. DW says to hold here so I don't look like a skinny old man with sunken cheek bones and saggy skin. I tend to agree with her.



Before anyone asks, I lost the weight under the supervision of a nutritionist at the VA, and I basically count calories (logging everything I eat with MyFitnessPal) with no restrictions on what I can eat. I also walk a lot with DW. Since I started logging my walks with MapMyRun on 6-15-14, I have walked 52.12 miles in 15.68 hours, and burned 7,830 calories in the process. We try to walk at least 2 miles, 3-5 times each week depending on our schedules and the weather. IMO, the walking has contributed significantly to the weight loss. The walk/run logging program automatically interfaces with the food logging program, and credits me with additional calories for my daily count. It's a simple setup once you get used to it, and both programs are free to download. I can log food when away from home using my iPhone, and use my iPhone clock/stopwatch to log the time each walk takes. Time, distance, weight and age are used to determine calories burned, and it's all done automatically. Last night after dinner we walked 2.89 miles in 46 minutes, burning 283 calories. It's getting to be a habit, and a good one at that.

....a sailor.

yeah, something like that. grew up on the water, my very rich Uncle sent me to college so I could drive around in those big grey boats. the ones with the numbers on them....

in the mid-Atlantic region, there's the Chesapeake Bay and the Delaware Bay. the Chesapeake generally out-medias the Delaware, however comma the Chesapeake is famous for it's "5'oclock doldrums" - and sand bars, and mud flats, and the "so we had to get towed off the . . . "

an avid Chesapeake sailor friend - had a 5x ft, nice boat, was whining about his upcoming vacation doldrums so I advised him to motor thru the C&D Canal, go south, and stand-by for real wind and high boat adventure. he still talks about it.....

I've lost 33# since sometime in May and have done it through cutting out most bread, potatoes, pork products and portioning. I eat a lot of veg with fish and chicken. I do some lifting and not as much walking as I should.

Here is me a few weeks ago after a fishing trip out of Westport, WA - caught 10 rock fish, a Chinook that went about 15# and a coho about 8#. It was a nice bag of fish, you bet.
