Anyone Remote Want to Host Me for a while?

WL..........how are your carpentry skills? We may be able to work something out, as I have an old house I'd like to gut and renovate into a rental property, if you have the skills for such a job.

Out my west windows you look out upon 60 miles long and 5 miles wide of Kootenay Lake full of rainbows, dolly varden, kokanee and gerrards. Out my east windows all you can see is mountains as far as one can venture it's crown land and mountains full of elk, deer, bears, cougars and turkeys. Oh ya, and my own private 100 mtr range with bench and back board.

I'd be willing to supply room and board, vehicle, fuel and some pay and all the guns and ammo you ever wanted to shoot and try. The boy and I also shoot some lively rounds of trap in the pasture. I have a 26' inboard boat, a 16' outboard, a new inflatable and 2 Yamaha wave runners for the water side of things, the boat ramp is 1/2 mile away. For the mountain side I have an Argo, quad, 2 Ranger SXSs and two horses with full tack.

I'm now retired so I believe in a little work and lots of play and relaxation time. I've done my 80-90 hour weeks for too many years so now I really like my 20 or so hour weeks, if you get my drift.

I thought you had children and by extension a wife or significant other.........are we talking the family or just you?

Heck, I've lived in Canada my entire life and would jump on that if I didn't have a wife/kid and could put my career on hold for a couple years...

Glad I'm not paying the hydro bill on account of that poorly sealed door.
Best part is when you open it and check for a fire on account of the "smoke".

When it gets that cold even triple pane glass gets frosty!

Heck let me know when the rental property is up for rent I'll jump all over that .

Yes. That looks like a picture of every door in places like Baker lake or Hall beach.

Norman Wells would be serious up to speed for an Aussie. Especially this time of year.

Years ago in a rye fueled BS session a guy told me he had the last pack of smokes in Norman Wells and some guy grabbed it out of his shirt pocket and like all his drunken stories it concluded with "so I grabbed that c##ksucker by the throat".

Welcome anytime Spank, always looking for an excuse to take the boat out. It's just too big for me to handle loading and off loading by myself, two guys it's a breeze though. Trade ya for a goose hunt this fall......

 

[pete dobinson]

I would be all over that last offer WL, you couldn't do any better than that. Thats a beautiful part of BC.

 

[Suther]

While that is certainly colder than what my friend dealt with, we were sleeping in a tent(with no stove or heater), so I'll call it a draw. Lol


WL, can't go wrong with c-fbmi's offer. Hell I just graduated and haven't looked for a job yet, if it wasn't for the wife and kids I'd want to go help him! I've got carpentry and demolition experience...

 

[wbaad]

That isn’t the NWL crew house is it

 

[Slamfire]

...I'm wondering if anyone is looking for some kind of Helpin Hand, on a Ranch, in the Wilderness, I'd love to tag along trapping or can hold my own on some machines, Trucks and don't mind givin work a go...

Cool! The process to obtain a Canadian work permit doesn't look too onerous.

He won't need a work permit 'cause we won't be WORKING, he'll just be visiting and helping out a buddy with personal renovations on his private property...........

 

[Purple shoulder]

He can work all he wants. Its the getting paid that is an issue. Most totally understand that. I bet you a real blast at parties eh Slamfire?

 

[Suther]

Wouldn't hurt to look into getting a visa though. If he decides he likes it here it would make staying around and moving about the province/country easier.
