My daughter-in-law, Colleen, submitted our 7 year old Grand-son, Travis's name in a contest and won.
The picture below is when he was just told that he would be skating with the Senators this Saturday at 2pm. carrying the flag and standing with them for the National anthem.

Travis is the son of Cam & Colleen Phillips

By the length of his beard and the grey legs, he is probably over 10 years old.
He looks to be well over 8 feet at the top of the shoulder hump, and with his head up the height to the top of the shoulder hump, and with his head up the height to the top of his antler must be about 12 feet.
This guy is king of the forest, no bear or pack of wolves would dare come after him when he has this rack ...
Considering that a dirt road can fit 1 1/2 cars across ... this fellow is HUGE ...
The picture was taken near Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada
Yes it is a regular size dirt road.

He just bought a new boat and decided to take her for the maiden voyage.
This was his first boat and he wasn't quite sure of the exact
"Standard Operating Procedures
for launching it off a ramp, but figured it couldn't be too hard.
He consulted his local boat dealer for advice, but they just said
"Don't let the trailer get too deep when you are trying to launch the boat."
Well, he didn't know what they meant by that as he could barely get the trailer in the water at all !
You're goingt to love this guy !
Anyhow, here's a picture below.

When Dave Chong and Ted Filippou first wet their lines in the June pike tournament on
The next year, the York Region angling tandem exhibited a noticeable improvement, placing eighth.
Their progression, however, didn't stop there.
Last year, Chong, who lives in Aurora, and Filippou, a
This year, they struck the mother lode.
Competing in a field of 129 two-angler teams last weekend, Chong and Filippou caught their five-fish quota, measuring 167.25 inches in total length.
It was good enough for the winning pair to drive off with a nice paycheque of $12,400.
"Once we figured out how we could catch them, we didn't deviate from what we were doing," an elated Chong said.
While northern pike can be caught on a variety of artificial offerings, their best success stemmed from tossing hard jerk baits including models manufactured by Lucky Craft and Mega bass, Chong said.
In retail outlets, these baits aren't cheap, but to win tournaments where money is on the line, the costs of these baits aren't a factor, Chong said.
"People who don't believe baits worth $20 to $25 apiece can make a difference. Well, they do," he said.
Angling the day of the tourney was challenging as just 20 of the 129 teams measured their five-fish limit and another 50 teams did not weigh anything.
Four of the five fish caught by the local team came from one specific area of
Upon landing their fifth northern pike, Chong felt they could be in the hunt for the big prize. This they based on the winning lengths from past events.
"When we measured our fish, we knew from previous years' tournaments, we had what it would take to win it," Chong said.
"But you can't control what everyone else does. Someone could have had a phenomenal day on the water. Anything can happen and there were some big fish caught that day."
While Chong and Filippou's longest northern measured 27.25 inches, longer fish were caught.
But they weren't enough to overtake the overall numbers recorded by Chong and Filippou.
"Fishing was tough," said Chong, a fishing guide and co-host of the upcoming angling TV series Fish City.
