Zippo4570 is hitched!
Well, what a day!
Yesterday my wife and I got the privilege of attending the wedding of my son Robert to a great girl from Newfoundland , Jennifer! 
I actually knew her dad for years before I met her, as he and I are both members of the UBC! 
Spectacular wedding, fantastic scenery around St. John's Newfoundland ( first time there for us)
and the friendliest and courteous people you will ever meet!
Congratulations , Son, you and Jenn were made for each other!
Pics to follow!
Cat

Huge congratulations to you and your son Cat!
Oh, and don’t worry about the shotgun on the boat.
It’s for ducks and seals. Standard “fishing” equipment.

If a codfish is the worst place you ever put your lips you're doing great!

congrats to Robbie and family!!
Cat, great to hear that Robbie is finally hitched.
Next step; grandkids! Hope you have a house full of them to help torture you in your retirement!
Hope you and Mrs. Cat have a great time on "the Rock". Send out some pics of your jigging expedition.

Congrats, Catn-no-hat!
That’s quite a fish, too!
NL is beautiful. So is most of the rest of the east coast, really. So is the west though. The middle is meh at times (sorry SK and MB), lol.

Nice catch, looks like a 20lb plus. Also looks like you went of Petty Harbour.

Just landed in Calgary after a 6 hour layover in Halifax
What fun! 
Only bad part of the whole deal was getting to and from Newfoundland!
