Completely agree with this statement on location being centrally located. Island park was a great location to stay. The airbnb we rented was literally on the trail. I could hear sleds go by in the middle of the night and minutes from gas station.

Same thing happened in Chicago. Union “rules” made having trade shows cost prohibitive to have there. Now what? Less shows. Less shows means less “specialized” people to plug in extension cords. That’s the consequence.

Glad you are ok John. The other thread was pretty open ended but I felt bad asking what the heck happened so waited it out. Get better soon so you can ride at least a little this winter

PClark looks like you are timing the project perfectly. Happy for my! I bet you are pumped to get the sleds in there during the winter!

we were there in February and temps were exactly like they were in the U.P. Go online and check historical temps like I did to get a feel for the weather. Things change quickly out there with winds and snow so be careful. The first day we rode with a guide just to trail ride and thank God we...

Vegas in October for work. I hate it. Can't wait till it's over

Maybe a new base camp when trailering west for the day? ;)

The Marxists ways are never at fault. They are never wrong and are blinded to the truth. They will never realize their mistakes. Adults have to make the correction and take them out of power. Problem is their sheep will keep voting for them…but many have opened their eyes and if we had fair...

low rainfall areas will see trees stressed out and changing early.

Nothing like having your sled thaw out overnight in a heated garage. Happy for you!

I'm still thinking about fishing and boating.:cool:

That's one thing Indy didn't factor in either. Lots to this process. Since he says he wouldn't use it in the summer...who knows. Maybe Airbnb?

Yes, I have avoided this thread mostly since my scenario is a little different than most. In my case, I'm a fourth generation on our chain of lakes in northern Wisc. Florence county. it started with one house in 1947. Two brothers who married two sisters. So close family. My son is the 5th...

you are correct. But you are talking about a period of time that for real estate isn't that long ago. I know you are similar in age to my son so...still young. Appreciation in value throughout the 70's and 80's were very good. My parents bought a house in 1974 for $125,000 and sold it for a fuzz...

I was going to reply to Indy's post with a similar comment regarding investment. Real estate usually is a good investment, especially of you are able to benefit from it during the time you owned it. You would have to factor in the potential value of the investment at say age 68 (Indy's example)...

OK. so you have a loch ness monster too?

will be interested to be along for the journey with you. keep us posted.

seems a little weird to me. Floor it slam on the brakes. Floor it slam on the brakes. I've driven that at Autobahn near Joliet and hated it. I want to hit some speeds not stop and go. But...whatever. Not my thing.

That is exactly why I'm so glad I have my own well and water treatment system in my house. Plus a reverse osmosis for drinking. YUCK! :poop:

I bet we flush the low flow toilets more than we would with the old fashioned higher GPF toilets. You do it just so it doesn't plug up. the left doesn't have any common sense, even for their own causes.
