i refer to uncle roy,s road as you could go knock on the door and ask for a side of beef for the freezer and he will tell you when it will be ready and pick up at meat packers good price and better then the super store

now just need steve to get job so i can have a freezer and food to eat.

steve first time you ever called blue mountain a mountain im shocked

You are kidding, you son won't be unhappy in the summer when the beach is full of young skantily clad ladies. Obviously never witnessed this only have eyes for my wife, Steve told me that is what happens:rofl:

Try doing a search for wasaga sun, it is the local newspaper, but i am not sure if they have an online presence.

There is another website for homes, list 4 homes or something, if you give me 5 mins it is bookmarked on my other computer.

Sorry appears i have deleted loads of my bookmarks. Couldn't find the other link, but there definately is another source for house hunting. MLS covers most resale houses and the odd new build. The other site didn't have that many.

i can put you in touch with the main guy for rentals in Wasaga Beach we used him. None of them are listed on MLS, because it is mainly short term rental due to cottage country.
