older vid but kinda neat. Dam climb

Im 3-4 years into Ring cameras and do like how consistant and well they work. You need a subscription for storage but easier than setting up and maintaining my own storage. I used to have i.p. cams in the past but they proved difficult to set up and maintain. The Ring cameras are plug and play...

Its not a business establishment but the Teepee east of Shelby was very much a destination that locals would head to to hang out and warm up a bit. I have seen hot dogs cooked on the fire that was typically always burning in the old boiler inside on a few occasions. The land owners changed...

Quite obvious your parents did a great job in your upbringing......Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!

Truly sad news. My heart felt condolances for the Dee family and friends. I always admired John not just for his weather prowess but for his love of family which you could read about weekly in his journals. He would share his life story with us and it always left you with a good feeling and a...

Good choice for siding. I would have used that but I did my last house with the fiber cement and sold it almost 20 years later and it still looked great so went with that again. I used an 8 1/4 which leaves a 7 inch face. We had our place by the silver lake sand dunes for 25 years and then...

Im on the tail end of my summer project. Not that it compares to the magnitude of your project but the cabin turned home had some miled oiut T1-11 that needed a fix. Had new windows installed last year and now im installing James Hardie siding this year. What are your siding plans?

Thanks for taking the time to dociument your project with us like its not already enough just to knock this thing out on its own. Looks sweet and will give you many years of enjoyment and use. I must say...It looks like you know what your doing! :cool:

Ill be the guy on the right side of the trail, with my hands on the bars, wearing my 22 year old snowmobile jacket and riding a 2 year old Renegade 600efi ;)

Not much interest for me either with big bores anymore. Bad juju with the 900/1000 motors so I would suspect competing in the 850 class would make sense. Smooth and reliable would be a winner and they NEED a winner!

Having a 2nd place to get away is nice and should be just that....a place to get away from the "normal" routines and enjoy something different. Make sure there is plenty to do close by whether it be hunting, fishing, water sports etc. just make sure there is stuff you enjoy close by or at least...

Finally made it to the west end of the u.p. that last big rain turned to snow event of the season. Very nice trails with the groomers out as well. Even stopped in at Pats......super nice place and location!

Was able to ride out of the garage in silver lake a couple of times. Had snow that came and went a few times and was deep enough for a rip. Only one trip north but was to the Keeweenaw and was never that far west before so was very cool. Going back for sure! Might have around 600 for the season...

F From what Ive read for the most part these guys have the credentials to undertake this task. One thing they have for sure as old frank would say is they have Sisu......
