    I once walked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and then back up via one of the mule paths ...tour guides call falling off this very narrow and steep path as taking the 13 second tour. That's how long it takes to fall 1 mile apparently <laugh>

    I was told that decades ago there was one mule that was famous for stopping and looking over the edge at the Grand Canyon....apparently put the wind up tourists. I suspect the guides put the most annoying person on him. :)

    I chose to trust my own feet rather than sit on a mule and trust their hooves. I saw nothing but terrified faces from people who chose the mule option, even those on mules that didn't have a sense of humour.

    Eight years in business today.

    To those who are anti-capitalism out there, you'll be pleased to know that it's still a struggle.

    As a socialist I am well aware of the importance of small businesses, which are the bedrock of this country’s prosperity and social fabric. I salute you and your family for your struggle, and long may you prosper!

    Here’s something that is too cute for words. Hopefully it will put a smile on a few faces.

    Well done, Vin. Government conspires against small businesses, I reckon, whichever party they are, so many congratulations for making it this far!

    I tried it for 3 years Vin, soon went back to being a wage slave because it's easier. Respect to you
