Scoop. Sorry to hear that. Hope it doesn't come to that. If it does, maybe you can put some of the money away and still take a few trips with a rental or borrowed sled. Just a thought. A friend of mine sold his sleds and rents for a few trips a year. It's working for him and he claims saves him money.
Juls - You just GOT'a go to the ride-in. You already gave up one season in MI. I hear ya on the job situation, but you got this far with your sleds and trailer. I've got everything crossed for you that something else develops on the job front for you. Worst case...maybe we'll get enough snow in our neck of the woods to ride down here like last year. Day trips are a lot cheaper!
Where the heck did September go? Don't know how it happened, but I missed it. Darn...it's one of my favorite months too. Oh well. At least we're going in the right direction...toward winter.

Hi
Howdy!!
Nancy, Debwa and Juls belated Happy Birthday!! Sorry I missed them.
Color changes here are already beautiful!! Hope some of you can get out to see it.
Up north living is different however I'm really excited for the snow to fall then all my stress will wash away and I will be in my happy place whenever mother nature blesses us
News flash I'm gonna be a grandma next June, took it hard for a few weeks but my daughter is now an adult. Some things happen for a reason.... (insert positive thinking)

Hey Serena, A close friend had a really tough time when her sophomore (high school) son got a girl pregnant. You couldn't get the happy glow off her face though, once she held that grand daughter. Grand kids can bring lots of joy. Good luck.

Serena's gonna be a Gma! You're right, she's an adult and and things happen for a reason - and that reason is that baby needs you for a Gma!
GOD BLESS! I pray all goes well for your daughter during her pregnancy and the baby is happy and healthly!!!
Brad - you are too funny... Granny! Bahahahahah!
Canoe - you betcha I'm planning to go... I'm still working my arse for for FTE position - this contract stuff is for the birds! Being a contractor is costing me more than what I was making before - the insurance premiums and the out of pocket expense for the medical care is costing a fortune!
But, like you said - if it snows like it's been raining this summer we will have plenty of snow for day trips like we did last year.
Speaking of work, I better fly...
REV IT UPx3!
Jul

Hey Brad: Talked with my dad and he said he will be there, so you'll have to stop in and and give him crap.
I'll make sure to look him up and say HI.

Ive been putting it off for a couple years, but found a good deal this morning, i will post pics later today im excited to have a sled more tailored to my riding style. this are swell other then that, enjoy your weekend.

ZZZZzzzzzz!
Happy "Belated" Birthday's too all I have missed (sorry),...
Congrats and Prayers to all who need it,...
Been gone for awhile,... but check in when I can.
I am only 1/2 way through my required State Certified Recruit Training School.
(Mandatory to keep my job),...
Lots of Homework, work sheets, report writing, and VERY LATE NIGHTS Studying.
Not to mention all that mixed with combat procedures (learning how to legally take
inmates down in fighting situations),....
It really has beat the Crap out of me.
Mentally and Physically,.... I am Drained.
Outta shape and Old come to mind.
I have to succeed,....Because,.. if you don't pass,.... the Job is Gone!
So,....
I just gotta hang in there for 2 more weeks!
Monday,.. I get a direct HUGE dose of Pepper Spray to the face (eyes must be open),...
then I have to complete an obstacle course,.. take down an inmate (instructor in a padded suit),.... handcuff,.... and other stuff,...while my face and eyes are on fire.
Oh what fun,....NOT!
THEN,.... take 2 big tests (written),... always something.
Somehow,..... that old D.J. Job seemed so sweet! LOL!,....
Well,.... back to studying,....
Have a GREAT WEEKEND!
