Triggerhappy

Got a new Thundercat.  Just need snow.

I was a Ford man (Powerstroke and V10) and decided to try a new Duramax 3500 HD.  So far I like it.  I need it for the boat more than the sleds.

So you had a Bruce Jenner done....?

It was nice to pass through a few snow squals on the way to work this morning. Supposed to go down to 12 degrees tonight. I hope this is a sign of a good season. 

Nope, I like horses, especially motors with a lot of them.   Now Pennsylvania folk... that's another story... ;)

Well like everyone does, the people that live down south have a choice of where they live.  People tell us we are crazy for living up in the north east because of the terrible ice and snow storms, etc... but the southern states have big risks of major storms that can wipe out their life savings (or their lives), so they have to weigh the risks vs. reward to live close to the ocean and beaches.  It's very unfortunate and I hate to see it, but it is their choice.

Thank you. It's a Hustler Slingshot (39ft). S/C 500's. (700hp each)

Thanks.  My boat would be all the way to the left. This one. 

Getting my boat put away and getting my new sled set up for this winter.  

Traded the BMW 1200 GS for a KTM 1290 super adventure, this thing is a blast !

They are great. 
I am looking forward to the great dinners that we made there.....  oops sorry Pipe I forgot you didn't get any.  ;)

Mine didn't.   Hmmm,  maybe those were just the parts that were left over after putting yours together.  ;)   Who needs brakes anyway.....

I guess you won't be having to wait for me then....  ;)
Looking forward to another great year.

President Trump could cure cancer and the press would tear him apart for taking so long to do it. Or they would accuse him of inventing it so he could take credit for curing it. Some F''ed up crap going on in the media, they are not there to tell the truth anymore only push their agenda. Best one I heard is the Dems were on track to win the election until after 5,  then all the republicans got off work and voted !

Was up to Drakkar again Friday.  Did a little ride Friday and then had a nice dinner with Reggie and Nancy.  Great people.  Sorry Wes the scraps went to the dog!  Lol.  Saturday we wished Wes and Chris a safe trip for the week and Belinda and I hesded out a little later than planned for the day at 9:30. We headed east which was all freshly groomed and hit 73 north.  It was perfect. While it was snowing when we left Drakkar the skies cleared up as we went north and turned to all blue sky!  73 was great all the way to the warming hut. From there we were going to go north but I saw that they groomed the old trail (73) going east. I was curious as 2 weeks ago it wasn't so we went a couple miles down it and it was fantastic.  But we had plans to go north so we turned around and went up like planned but it appears it might be done all the way out.  But I did not run it completely so take it only as that. Lol.  So north we go towards lac Edouard. Trail is great. Stop into The Trapper.  Great soup. We decide we should head east now and show Belinda La Tuque. We down to 73 and run that west to La Tuque.  It too was incredible shape.  On the top of the hill just past the restaurant a snowmobile was literally up in a tree!  Must have been flying up the hill and never saw the trail turn left and launched it into the trees.  The skis and a arms were all caught up in a good size tree. We saw equipment all stacked on the side of the trail and first thought it was a body but only gear. The said rider was fine and they were all good.  We continue into town to get gas. As we come back a guy stops us as they had the trail blocked with a sled trying to pull the wreck out. They cut the tree down to get it off the tree!!  Lol. Crazy. Glad there was no serious injury.  We continue down towards shawinigan and run the pipeline.  The trails all the way down were great.  Decide to jump on the river and run it down to shawinigan.  Parts were ok and parts were very bumpy!  Get close to shawinigan and we stop to get dinner.  Then ride the last 15 miles back to Drakkar.  270 miles and back by 7:30.  Belinda loved the scenery of the upper part of 73 and the pipeline.  Great day.  

Back up again this weekend. Took a nice ride today after driving up this morning.  Trails soft but in nice shape.  

Great Place..  Will be there tomorrow for the 4th time this season.  Reggie and Nancy are great!

We just left Drakkar this afternoon.  The trail leaves right from his parking lot.  This is taken immediately after we crossed the road from his parking lot today.
