LOL - oh you're in so much trouble now............:D nothing like the view from 8400 ft up.....its lonely at the top but the food is better....:D

Yah Warhawk - that was the day you were there and we couldn't see squat. That is up on the other side.

Man you guys would kill me if you saw the epic day we had last week. Some pics to come later.

8400 ft, the oxygen masks were dropping from the overhead compartments, we had to sign in at the yeti sign in kiosk. and i think we could see the pacific, atlantic and the arctic oceans from that last point. i'm sure that was the cn tower in the far east just off lake ontario. my nose just quit bleeding.

Another one for Modman Tours ( we get you there, but you are on your own for the way out)

modman, how did i miss out on this outing?

This pic was from over christmas, that's how long it has taken imdoo'n to accomplish getting his pictures downloaded. Maybe if he could tear himself away from the internet porn for a just few minutes more a month.....

Dusty - You were asked and had prior XMAS family plans if I remember right, no hard feelings I hope........I stopped by today to chat but you weren't home........:(

carpal tunnel syndrome, have to type with one finger.

LMAO so your telling me you guys never went anywhere.:confused:
Larry how was the trip to Fernie a couple weeks ago?? any pics?? was the snow as good as everybody was saying or was it all BS??




Bart have you had a chance to get out anymore this year???

Hows the new addition to the family doing? Probably has you up most of the night anyways. You should start to look at installing a hanger of some sort in the corner of the shop so that way she can learn from you as she grows up. As you walk by to grab a tool you could give her a little push and it would be like a swing. :d You realize she is going to want to be with dad as she grows up and eventually you and Sherry are going to have to make her a MODWOMEN machine LOL:d

all the best you guys
hope you have a awsome summer.:beer:

keep in touch and next year i will be looking to hook up with you guys again.

Yep got out on the family vacation last week - momma was kind enough to let me ride for a couple days with my old man while she did the family tour - sick powder, glad the big dog was running well, needed the extra power to break through the 2.5 ft of fresh stuff. :D

Little one sleeps 6 hrs at a shot (yes we are blessed) so momma and me not really that tired, only has had a handful of bad nights, really can't complain. She's crying in the background as we speak...LOL

Might be a couple day trips left in the tank for me, depends on if I can convince momma to let me go...she's a great gal and will probably let me do at least a day trip or two.

Keep in touch.

WTH?? Is this pick on Modman day?? Word on the street is that if Tricky Ricky with the thumbs of steel hadn't saved your @$$, you'd still be pulling that Doo down the trail by hand..... :D LOL Get those new parts installed and we'll go find some real trouble.....the snow's just getting good, let's hit the real steeps, no kids stuff, what goes up, must come down though, make sure that run out is clear or you'll have to engage the RER......

Don't need to bring food, water, etc. Just need extra camera batteries and a bowsaw to cut down saplings for when alter ego "Crazy Larry" wants to race.....:eek:;) hehe

just spreading the BS(love) around. not sure about any racing, may have a few rolls and stucks left(stucks seem to be my specialty). i'll let you know if i can get it together, didn't have much luck last time forgot to tighten a few bolts, (oldtimers), goes with the gray hair.
with oldtimers, you meet new friends everyday.
