  1. I'm not going to reveal who it was, but let's just say to close to the edge of the trail and it was a cornice that let loose, slow motion roll. A couple of locals with a tundra winched it out. Not a scratch on it! Couldn't beleive it!
  2. Thanks JG, Do you know how much they where asking for it. Can't find anything on line. The wife said she's ready to move, I hope she doesn't mean South! LOL
  3. The MachZ being loaded in the back of a locals truck. Blew the motor on the way to Murdochville. Got it back to Chandler and it needed a shortblock. Jean Guys brothers dealership had one in Amqui. They put in on a bus over night and installed the next morning. On our way in less then 24hrs with new motor under warranty. Total cost $50 for the block and $95 for the bus ride for the block, PRICELESS! Good thing our trucks where in RDL.
  4. Same sled a little later, after this time we where gonna leave it till spring! Actually I just noticed the date, it is the first day of spring!
  5. The problem is keeping them on the trail. LOL! My buddys Attack
  6. What does that actually mean, goverment subvention? How much where they asking for it? Anyone know
  7. True, but your also comparing 2strokes to 4 strokes. The Doo 1200 4stroke has been flawless.
  8. I guess that's a popular speed trap. We also got ticketed by the airport in la Tuque. They where hiding in the trees.
  9. What the, another Yamaha in the ditch, go figure!
  10. What's with all the Yammis in the ditches! I thought they turn like there on rails, LOL!
  11. Too funny, The people running with all the houshold stuff, could be any given day in Paterson, NJ as they loot all the abandoned houses! LOL! The only differance is the skin color!
  12. I got out Saturday afternoon. The boat is back in NJ on the trailer now I found a reasonable monthly rental on Lake George for the month of August we are considering. If not the 1000 islands for 2 weeks.
  13. No luck with the pics EH! It was a good time, weather could have been better, but such is life. I'll be up this weekend, then not again till September.
  14. if he does it on foot I doubt he would make the gathering! LOL
  15. Heading up now, taking the boat to Ehrhardt's for dinner tonight.
  16. So you gonna be solo? Don't forget to shave the beard, it's gonna be a hot one!
  17. The house isn't for sale it's a scheduling issue. According to his schedule I would get to use the house maybe 4 weekends all summer. I have a boat I want to use every weekend like I always have. I open and close the place every year and maintain it, screw em, they can have it! It's amazing when my mom was up there all summer from FL. no one wants to use the house, now that she passed on, they all want to use it and have no other family there on the weekends they are there. And I'm the only one with the boat!
  18. I'll be there, I'll also be there this coming weekend. After that it looks like no more lake Wally for me. Pulling the boat back after the gathering and dropping it in the Hudson River for the remainder of the season. Thanks to my brother, I guess 34 years is enough. Looks like Lake George next year!
  19. Post a pic of your boat so I know what to look for. I hope to get the boat in the water next weekend. Too busy trying to catch up on work with all the dam rain! I knew I should have made it up there this weekend. My daughters Sweet 16 birthday today. I'll be at the mini gathering for sure.
  20. Sorry Shane that's a floating chalet we have been renting for a week the last few years in the 1000 Islands. Need a change of scenery every so often.
