noteven Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 I sitting in fronta the heater sipping a coffee looking outside at the cold and wet chitty weather and a idea 💡 comes to mind... Travel to Arizona via Halifax, NS to see some lakes and leaves. Stay in Canada eastbound. Then shape a course for AZ kiddy corner. Overnight at Walmart. Post on Instagram I’m over here a ways east of Edmonton, AB. How hard could it be? "Are we there yet?" asked no motorcycle rider, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickeieio Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 There's some good riding on Cape Breton. Along the coast, you can whale watch without getting off the bike. And the seafood up there is amazing.

Big5er Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 65 degrees? Don't take this personal but you suck!!! Heat index here on Tuesday was 106. I'd give anything for 85......65 is just too much to expect but sure would be nice. Could ya ship us some of that cool air?

Wrknrvr Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 Now if you go east take the snow with you. Last year you left it at my place. I am thinking about getting our water and sewer lines out of the ground before it freezes in the ground. I am going to cover the electric line also so it is easy to get up. Now back east they do not like extra things behind your trailer just for some thought on the pusher truck idea. Sitting hear with the Auquahot on sippin coffee think that da_ snow is going east this year. My wife keeps asking how are we going south this year. I keep saying where the fishing is good. But she knows it snows early where I like to fish. So we are having mild discussion on our route south. I have been watching your weather map and I think your are stockpiling that snow to deliver at my door step in Montana. Have fun on that trip.

noteven Posted September 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 I should be leaving yesterday but I help with harvesting which is at a standstill. Vern I could tow the snow weather east... it’s bound to show up wherever I go after Oct 15 🙃 ... I just looked out the door and it is overcast, 34F and very light snow falling... guess I don’t have to go anywhere’s Supposed to smarten up after the weekend when we get Early Aboriginal Post Equinox weather patterns. Which is like January in Wickenburg. Dry, sunny, warm, maybe a nip of frost at sunrise... "Are we there yet?" asked no motorcycle rider, ever.

runaway parents Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 SNOW?=BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For get that. As long as it doesn't cross the border the think we will be ok. Oh yes installing chains on trucks for drivers that don't have a clue. Fun times. For you guys that think you might be out on snowy roads now is the time to get those chains out and make sure they are in working order. Get to know how to install them. While you have good weather. Don't wait till your spun out in a snow storm in the middle of the road. This is not the time to be figuring these things out. Especially if your blocking traffic.

orca Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 Reminds me of the time i stopped for fuel in an undisclosed small town way down south. After fueling i went in to pay and passed a guy wearing just bib overalls. On the way back to the bus he asked where i was from and had a hard time explaining where i was from cause he didn't even know where North Dakota was! So i told him that u drive north till you hit the snow and then drive 500 more! He paused and then said "Hmmm you can't get more Yankee than that!" 2004 Freightliner m2 106 2015 DRV lx450 Fullhouse 2019 Indian Springfield 2014 Yamaha 950 V-Star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
