Well we have a table & chairs here too. Small desk, small table. But mostly we use the table to store stuff. I am east of Spell. Spell? I am REALLY confused now! edit: Wait a minute....Spell....Spellcaster...Ken! You are east of Ken!! But he's in BC...we are all east of him! Yeah, we probably are, but I'm probably the closest to him. that's what we often called him on AxeTalk

And I used to call Ken SC (SpellCaster) on Axetalk- I just realized nobody here knows what the heck SC refers to

I'm around 15 miles outside of Manhattan in New Jersey Do you have to commute to Manhattan? Never been to NYC, just curious what it’s like to get in and out of that place.

I've been to Manhattan twice. Stayed in Secaucus and took the bus into the Port Authority terminal. It was just a couple of blocks from Times Square. What a fantastic city.

I ran round most of it in 1995 when I did the New York marathon. Not very fast, as I was carrying an injury from the London marathon, earlier that year, but managed to get round in just over 5 hours

The furthest east I've been in the US was in US waters at Niagara Falls.
On land? I'm not sure.

Thank goodness I don't have to commute to Manhattan but I did have to for years. I also really like Manhattan, but I'd never want to live there. Many people in my town commute there every day but my office is now in Jersey City, which is literally right across from the World Financial Centre. Luckily I have been working from home because of covid and I am not complaining!

About an hour north of Blaine, WA.
Retired for couple of years. Grew up two provinces over and lived in all three western provinces throughout my life (which largely explains my take on politics). Currently have a really fun 3 piece band and we're hoping to be gigging in the next couple of months - barring Covid21, of course.
I'm quite likely an alcoholic and usually start these speeches with that disclaimer.

St. Catharines, Ontario - right beside Niagara Falls, if that helps A view from, and of, the stage at a Falls gig a couple years ago.

I’ve taken the drive to Acton…twice. It was only worth it the second time when I went to play golf up there. The first time cost me WAY too much money at the Old Hide House. 😂🤣😂🤣

View AttachmentView AttachmentI was playing golf out in Chippewa (Legends on the Niagara) today and one of the guys in our foursome owns Spicy Thai restaurant on Church Street in St Catharines. He invited us to try his restaurant and gave us each a business card. Have you ever eaten there and if so, is it good? My wife and I like Thai food and wouldn’t mind trying it if it’s good. It seems to have good google reviews (4.6 out of 5)

Yeah, I'm sure you are right about that. I guess there really isn't anyway I could go to Canada much before October anyway, since I am going to Europe in 3 weeks.
