Yep, we have Lowes…but they just seem to be Home Depot with a different sign. Our local hardware/lumber stores have very limited selections for things like fixtures. The big-box stores have damaged them.

I guess I’m going to have to find a store that specializes in whatever it is beyond the basics that I’m looking for at the time.

I want some unobtanium…(loved that movie, in a campy sort of way).

The four-legged orange monster travels with us each weekend…that kitten-cat has a LOT of miles on by now. Seems to love to travel, and boy does he love the hardwood floors at the Old Vic (and let’s not even mention the staircase!)

For Thanksgiving, he spent his time under the table. Sooo many toes to attack!

CUAgain!

Yep they exist in Canada too.
However have found the local hardware store is still the best.
Problem is those big box stores have just about killed the local hardware store. And the local hardware store has the same problems, everything is made in China and most of the stuff right out of the box is no longer a virgin.
Got either a Rona or a Lowes anywhere?
Have found too that often the most critical part you need, nobody has, unobtainum comes to mind.

Maybe try and indsutrial supply, they might be willing to sell to you
in exchange for some slip of paper saying you is what you is, just don’t look too far.

And speaking of looking too far, that spread of food looked delicious. Turkey and ham and my goodness pumpkin pies, lots of real whipped cream too I’d expect. Stuffed eh? Now will the two wheeled monster still hold you and your wife?

And where was the four-legged orange monster during all of the festivities?

You have a good time, hear me?

Snow here in Southern Ontario tonight!
