i cant wait until summer to spend the summer in shop building sleds for the next season.

my summer is short. 4.5 months. i tend to stetch out the riding season LOL.


on another note..

ROWDY i noticed your bike....did you know you can get a DUI on a bike? lolol

haha I do know I can get a DUI on a bike. Hasn't happened yet. :D Hopefully never! Last year on 17th ave in Calgary, we pulled up to a light, there were 4 of us on bicycles and 2 guys on choppers...I gave them the head nod to let them know we were ready to rock....reved my...pedals...light turned green...we had a promising head start then looked back and saw that they were laughing at us, and in a second blew by us...haha it was funny.

Cruisin' in the 'Stang. Camping, golfing and boating with friends in Christina Lake..... oh, and lot's of ice cold Corona's. :):beer::beer::beer::d

Coronas! I had some of those last night with some homemade burgs. Seemed like the perfect night for it! :)

My cottage and truck rolled into one... LOL....

Niiice! I like motorhomes! So cool

Fishing fishing fishing!!!!! All the kids can cast a fly super good too, so we have a blast and a half! I can't even tell you how many amazing spots within minutes we have to cast a fly in. Kootenay lake is also one of the wickedest lakes for fishing... humungous Gerrard Rainbows!!!

and gardening! I love feeding my family what we grow. One of the best feelings in the world is going out to the garden and making a salad from what you have just freshly picked.

You do understand about shrinkage right ?

haa haa haaa!!!! yup!! 10 4 on the shrinkage factor (reminds me of that seinfeld episode)...... Drink has yet to skinny dip with us though... Apparently in Wyoming Skinny dipping is not as widely accepted as in the Kootenays....

ya I'm afraid all the designated nudie beaches around here are all hairy hippie ish... we just make our own nudie beach..

this is one of my pet peeves and a true story.. lots of tourists come through this area.... on a hot summer night the kids and I zoom to the goat river, in our own private spot, whip off our clothes and soak in the water.. It's just common courtesy in the koots to pick a different spot on the river if you see a truck in front of a little beach... nooooooo the tourists see this as an invitation.... one couple even got their camera out!!!! "ooo look at the skinny dipping family!!" sheeeeeesh.....!!!

That's actually pretty creepy that they'd do that.
