Unfortunately we still live in the lunacy of CA and in what they call “A high risk fire area”. Homeowners, liability, fire mitigation insurance” or whatever they call it….. is hard to get and insanely overpriced. Believe me when I say, the moment they twitch and threaten cancelling us at our grandfathered low rate, they can expect to lose every policy we have with them. It’s sizable and makes me roll my eyes every time I give it any thought.

So a short answer……”cheap homeowners insurance” currently. Of course, it’s all subject to change.

BTW: your random pic looks like it could be used as a beginning to a good joke….. jus saynj

^^^ I think my very first snowmobile ride was one just like the left above.
What year is that sled? It's in very nice shape.

That is a 1967 SkiDoo Olympique (250cc). It is original except the track driver cogs. I have explored a lot with it! Not stuck in the pic below, just setting a trail.



Nice Blizzard!!!

Mine is a different vintage but the bloodline is there.

I would worry that it would be harder to find coverage if I was cancelled from my previous plan.
My pic of Bob and Larry is from Veggie Tales cartoons. Bob the tomato and Larry the Cucumber.

random pics that YOU have taken.......

Was tasked by the wifey to add some personal touches to a birthday card to her brother. He is a bit sarcastic at times and the card she got him, I thought was spot on. Kinda one of those personality types that don’t really care what your opinion is but makes sure he tells you his.

This is what I pulled out of my arse with colored pics I added..

What did her brother think of the card? Your artwork shows real talent. I wonder if he’ll get the (seemingly hurtful) message.
