Well we had a cooler day yesterday which was a relief – not that it was super cool – but we will take even a couple of degrees right now and please no more fires. – Coming from Wales I never thought I would be praying for rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I clicked onto a video about Can Am on You tube the other night quite interesting with Jeff Smith telling the story of how this all went really well after he as hired – he moved to Canada and developed the bike which was quite successful – We saw a lot out in Alberta, and Jeff came to the 1976 Moose Mountain Cross Country ( where I followed him up the first big hill on the Yamaha Canada IT 400) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another video shows the history of Yamaha – but they neglected to mention the TY series that Mick Andrews promoted for them ( And one of the reasons I went to work for them in Canada)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

===================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morning weather report – cool and not much smoke and I saw a report that they have the Hulcar fire near Silver Creek under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

( No skimmers on Swan Lake yesterday so hope this is correct)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
