the deserts of the outback we send one in after the other till they stop 
sinking then we know its safe to dive over the top lol😊

Bill,

I get an Aussie to drive his truck out on it - and if the truck falls thru, I  
wait two more weeks had have him try it again.  I have to wait two weeks 
because that's how long it takes him to get the truck out and restored back to 
"operating condition".   And I keep doing that until his truck stays put.

And, if all else fails, I get Tim Z to tell be when it's "safe". (See his 
input.)

Mac

Very interesting mac one question how do you know the ice is safe (thick 
enough) to drive on

I have a friend that has the steel frame (w/axle & wheels) for the specially 
built trailer they use - on which to construct an Ice Fishing "shed".

Two things make it very UNIQUE:

1.  The axle & wheel assembly is hydraulically lowered to drive it on the 
highway.  When you get the trailer/shed unit out onto your ice fishing spot, 
you release the hydraulic pressure and the axle & wheels retract up into the 
trailer frame - effectively lowering the steel trailer frame down onto the ice.

2.  The steel frame is designed such that there is one fair sized rectangular 
area that has no steel frame or reinforcing members in it.  That area is about 
36" by ~60".   Also, the tongue on these trailers is either removable or 
foldable - to get it out of the way.

 

Once the "Ice Fishing House" is lowered onto the ice and you get your heater 
going, you bore your holes in the ice within that open, unobstructed rectangle. 
 After you get the opening in the ice, it takes you skimming and occasionally 
chipping the ice that tries to grow back in the hole.  Of course if you go home 
for the night, you'll have to drill & chip all over again the next day.

 

I hope this helps.

Mac

I know nothing of ice fishing for obvious reasons . so how do you tell the ice 
is thick enough to walk or drive on to go ice fishing

And once you got the hole cut how do you stop it refreezing over while your 
fishing basically please give me an ice fishing lesson 101

Hey Mac 

Last email for the night. I am almost ready for ice fishing yes indeed. I gave 
my one Son Ice fishing equipment for Christmas and that 

could only mean one thing right?  You guessed it he wants me to take him. 
Better let the ice get a bit thicker though. 

Have a blessed night Mac. Glad you got a good sense of humour.  


Kind Regards,

 

Timothy J. Ziegler

Ha! - they eventually let us "commoners" own them.  After WWII, the GI's fell 
in love with them.

The first one brought to the US (as the "story"/history goes) was actually 
brought by Helen Keller.  She was in Japan on a cultural exchange mission(?).  
The Japanese Minister of Culture(?) gave her one as a departure gift (NOT a 
"seeing eye dog" kind of gift.).  It was sort of akin to one of our national 
officials giving a Bald Eagle to a departing dignitary.  The Akita is still 
HIGHLY regarded in Japan - for good reason as Ron Taylor mentioned.

Here's wishing all ya'll a Wonderful fun-filled Weekend!  (Go ice fishing Tim 
Z. - and take the cats with you.  Make them catfish!  LoL!)

Thanks, Bill.

She's 120 lbs - and about 28" (72cm) at her front shoulder).

Couldn't ask for a better dog.  We are "sold" on the Akita breed.  

They originated in Japan - where only the Emperor & "royalty" could own them.  

Bred to hunt bear & deer in their northern prefect (Akita Prefect).

Very loyal and a good "guard dog" - even w/ children.

Look up the movie about an Akita - "Hachi - A Dog's Tale" - staring Richard 
Gere.

Watch it with your kids & grandchildren.  Excellent movie for that - all will 
enjoy. (Cats might not like it!  LoL!!)

Blessngs  all.

Simple Christmas dinner here down under roast turkey with home made stuffing, 
roast potatoes and pumpkin and onion with mint peas.

Followed by plumb pudding with custard and jelly and ice cream and a spoon of

All with heaps of treats in between

Ok Tim - since you brought it up.

I was contemplating replying back to Brigitte:

 

"I'm thinking more along the menu of  "British fare" - Standing Rib Roast/Prime 
Rib Roast!  Cooked only to rare-medium rare! (about 125º F internal).

Along with some pan-roasted veggies (brussel sprouts, carrots, parsnips, 
rutabaga, and potatoes)  YUM!"
