    I know you joking but, those look like liquid hydrogen tanks not LPG. So that probably not the best idea...:ROFLMAO:

    I have seen this done like this, and every time is is impressive to watch. Amazing what the proper rigging can do.

    The Perfect Up North Property

    That was the first thing I thought of after reading Indy's post. My plan right now is to pass it to the kids but time, aging, and value, could change that as time rolls on... As others have said, this scenario play out a little different for everyone but I still think its nice to see the...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    I think what gary_in_neenah was getting at was second place taxes will be higher than the guy that lives in the area full time. You lose the homestead deduction. Some places even hit out of state owners of second places at a bit higher rate. At least from what I have have seen...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    I think you right about that. My house is on a small lake so I don't have to have lake front property but I do think it could be a bonus. You are right, I guess by asking the question I was looking for common theme of must haves or negatives. If there was something that kept standing out as to...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    Well, I wish I could say I was that lottery winner a week or two ago but it wasn't me. But I have been saving. I'm definitely not buying some mansion but I don't need that either. 😂 Really though I'm pretty simple I don't mind doing a campsite style a lot. In fact I really kind of like sleeping...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    Thanks for the replies, lots of great thoughts & opinions are given here. For me, I think I'm leaning more towards something I can make my own. Start off more of a campsite. Or something with a large storage building then add a cabin in the future. Keeping the maintenance low is high on the...

    UP Fall Colors

    Here is my opinion, and you should know I have never been to the UP that time of year. But when I think of Fall colors I think of the wide panoramic vista overlooking a nice valley tree tops... Eastern side is nice but much flatter overall. There are still some great vista to lookout over for...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    Just what I was looking for... At few things I had not thought about either... Go Fast or Go Home - Random partiers is not something I had thought of. Spending a whole weekend cleaning up for other reason was a worry... m8man - Good points! toddspolaris - How do you like being right on the...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    I think everyone on here has either wanted, thought about, or is lucky enough to have a place up North. So what makes it that perfect place? How long of a drive from home is it for you? What would you do differently if you could change something about your place? What's on your must have...

    Snowmobile Hall of Fame Pictures

    Definitely a cool place to stop! Hooks to hang your gear on in the winter as well. I have stopped a few different times. They are always moving things around and adding stuff over time. The same goes for the Top of the Lake Snowmobile Museum in the UP. https://www.snowmobilemuseum.com/

    Colorado springs

    I was in Colorado Springs last June. Actually at the top of Pikes Peak 1 year ago to the day of the storm this year. I have a friend that lives in Colorado Springs and two weeks before we were there last year, Colorado Springs was hit with a snow storm. I think it was the last full week of May...

    The Season in Review with Pictures

    That is great for him! I've only seen two other guys, one over in Cadillac. The other was not on the trail but it was the full custom sled set up for Garrett Goodwin at the races in Lake Geneva. Yeah, I think I want to like every post!

    Conditions near Mercer, WI 3-25 & 26

    Yes, they are definitely big in person! And yes, we probably were there at the same time always funny how small the world it is... The bar was packed at that time too! We had one of the big tables close to the windows in the corner farthest from the back door and when we were leaving people are...

    Conditions near Mercer, WI 3-25 & 26

    Yes, the deer were everywhere! I came around a corner and one standing in the middle of the trail started running at me. About 200' before it got to me, it jumped in the woods. On the 11th I had a wolf that I crossed paths with by Sayner. Samething, I think I scared him out of the woods as I had...
