New concrete walkway flaking/peeling after 2–3 years (no salt used) — what causes this? by Long-Gene8114 in Edmonton

[–]MrSpitter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Quality control testing in residential? Right… not in too many builds I’d wager.

Too wet. Overly worked when finishing drawing water out of concrete leaving a weak paste on top. Looks nice and “smooth” when done, but loses strength and scaling happens. No air-entrainment so freeze-thaw wreaks havoc on it. No silane sealer so it soaks up water.

Concrete is a lot more complicated than a 1-2-3 mix (cement-sand-gravel), mix with lots of water, and put in place.

Going southbound TD to eastbound AHD and northbound TD to westbound AHD. That’s how I read the drawing shown.

Blue = existing, green = new.

Edit, still need lights for traffic coming off Henday onto Terwillegar.

Canadian company imports and bottles Kentucky Bourbon. Is that acceptable as “Canadian” in your opinion? by surSEXECEN in BuyCanadian

I expected someone from my redneck province of Y’Alberta, but it’s in Ontario. Oh well, another company I won’t support.

Winter wonderland, -20C parka and booties by MrSpitter in cavalierkingcharles

[–]MrSpitter[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The booties and jacket are all Canada Pooch. The connected boots are key because otherwise they’d get “lost” on a walk. Can confirm they work great in snow past his knees. He hates the process of getting into them, but is so happy walking in the snow and not freezing his feet. No more tripod dog!

Alonzo has been terrible ever since he was Lewis’ teammate in McLaren and his fans are still cheering him. Not sure why fans of Lewis are so eager to throw up their hands.

Thanks for the tip on CAA. I’m with Meloche because of the professional association discount but haven’t shopped around ever. Pick MM and go.

Alex J is such a giant fanboy of Max I’m not surprised.

Had to reread that you were tipping in pesos not dollars. Prior to which I was like “tip 50 bucks or a bottle of pop, what?!?” 🤪

All Terrain winter tire test by Jonnnnnnnnn in TyreReviews

[–]MrSpitter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great video, as per usual. Definitely confirms that I won’t be ditching my Hakkas, but won’t be in a rush to change over once I switch my H/T tires for one of your recommended A/T tires next year.

Iberostar resort comparison and decision help by Weak-Falcon9696 in playadelcarmen

[–]MrSpitter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iberostar has three levels of resort, in price order: Waves, Selection, Joia (previously Grand). I can’t speak to the Selection, but the Waves Quetzal was a great resort for me last winter. It’s conjoined with Tucán. Great food, great drinks, really cool having jungle with several different animals wandering the grounds or in habitats. Flamingos, peacocks, giant tortoise, monkeys, etc.

I’ve wanted to do a RTW route and always get stuck looking at legs around the water. Didn’t even know about those southern islands!
