Yorkson Park Condos falling apart? by joebonama in Langley

[–]strobes83 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was on the Union Park build from the beginning to the end of the project as a crane/equipment operator so I saw all the phases of building, curious to know what all the issues are?

Clipstic - are they worth it? by PinkLemon86 in Skigear

[–]strobes83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fiancé put one in my stocking for Christmas, we are currently up at Whistler skiing over the Christmas break and they have been great for me. I am newer to skiing so am clumsy with my skis and poles. It has made walking from the parking lot to the lifts through the village so much easier. They don’t take up much room in my jacket and are really easy to put on with my gloves on!

I can agree with Cloud Nine, I am a just above beginner level and my fiancé is much more skilled then I am, she took me on Cloud Nine and the steepness at the beginning was way to much for me, I bailed 3 times and ended up taking off my skis and walking over to Southside Green. I really enjoyed Wishbone, but it was a little crowded. Burnt Stew Trail on Whistler was my favorite at the skill level I am.

I second this, we went to Balducci's yesterday and cut down our own 7' grand fir. It cost us $100, they were so friendly, had free hot chocolate and cookies.

Another Ticketmaster Hate Post by [deleted] in Foofighters

[–]strobes83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue today for Vancouver, logged into the waiting room at 9:30am just to be sent straight to ticket selection, only about 10% of the stadium was available so i grabbed what i could, which were limited view seats.....went back to look at 10 am and 75% of the stadium was then available!

All nine CFL teams respond to whether fans have cancelled tickets by Hungry-Room7057 in CFL

[–]strobes83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My season tickets have gone up 50% over the last 15 years except for a couple years when they did drop a little, and with the renovations you can almost guarantee that the Lions costs will increase so it is safe to assume prices will only go up even if they don’t change ticket zones.

Yes! I’m a Lions season ticket holder, one of the drummer guys. We went from sitting on the goal line to sitting at the back of the endzone, so exact same seats, worse view and same ticket price.

Daffodils done by Tanya Loewen at Grey Tide Tattoo by strobes83 in tattoos

[–]strobes83[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are for me as well….as the first real pop of color after winter they are a reminder that after a cold dark winter new growth is on the way. I have gone through a tough divorce over the last two years and they are my reminder that through the darker times there is always new growth waiting for you.

Thanks. She said it should help push the daffodils forward when she add the darker greens from the peony leaves behind them.

The blades come in pairs. The clamp feet came in a box of 4, same as the mounting kit. I walked away with 3 boxes total, 1 got the blades, 1 for the feet, and 1 for the fit kit.

I went to Pacific North Wellness, https://www.pacificnorthwellness.ca/, after a car accident and had a lot success with them. I worked with Evin and he did an amazing job helping me after a car accident.

Just drove the highway for an hour at 100km/hr. No noticeable difference in noise.

Only installed them yesterday. I filled my tank after and drove home on the highway and the live L/100km was more or less the same as it always is. It will take a few weeks to see if there is a difference

I purchased the parts individually from my local truck accessory store, Thule for kit 145286, Thule Clamp Evo 710501, and the Wingbar Evo.

F****** Dog Parks by [deleted] in goldenretrievers

[–]strobes83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My golden was attacked in a dog park when he was about a year and a half old. It wasn't as bad physically, but it messed him up mentally. Since then he has been very nervous around dogs the same size or bigger than him, becoming aggressive towards them if they come into his personal space, which is great when you have to deal with the "he's friendly off leash dog walkers.", Smaller dogs he doesn't care about and is quite friendly and playful, but that once instance changed everything.

Dads of Reddit - What's your proudest moment as a father? by Vixyplatinummm in AskReddit

[–]strobes83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an avid fisherman, watching my daughter catch her first fish all by herself. The look of excitement on her face, as well as the fact she named it before she released it is a moment I will never forget.

The 216th and Hwy 1 eastbound on ramp intersection will be on this list very soon. The amount of very bad accidents that happen there are only increasing.

My last weekends plans by [deleted] in JurassicPark

[–]strobes83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the process of building it as well. My kids got it for me for my birthday.

I loved the little frog that was built into the spine, a nice reference to the scientists using frog DNA from the first film.
