Leave you sleds a home because no place to use them and no ice to ice fish
Wellsboro was almost as hot when we were there, or so it seemed.

Wow, thanks Mark that's a huge way to show us you still love us after the
party we had there last year. I always figured we would all be arrested for
coming back into Arizona. BTW that wasn't me that pee'd in the pool, that
was Steve and Sly. I had nothing to do with that, I will admit that a brown trout
sneeked out from my cheeks while I was skinny dipping. The fire in the
neighbors garage, well no one is claiming they did that, but that a$$hole
deserved it!
Anyway the bike is packed, I'll be leaving shortly. I'll be headed south to N.
Carolina and then west to your place. I have no roads picked out, as I plan
to just head south and then west. Don't worry I'll be fine, oh, and I'm bringing
some maple syrup and hard apple cider. See ya soon!

HaHaHa, your busted. None of my neighbors have a garage.

BTW, we keep the chlorine level high for a reason. The neighborhood teenagers are on a permanent invite.

We decided against running the pool heater this year since it can run $400.00+/month. . . so current pool temp is 58° (Burr). I am totally willing to heat it back up if my Canuck Brothers come on down. Otherwise I just go to the local LA Fitness for pool privileges (82°), but I have guest privileges so you are welcome to go along.

I already have some "hard cider" in the fridge. Kris "Netnorski" Olsen's Apple Pie recipe has gone through several modifications at our house to arrive at it's current toxic perfection. Tastes like liquid pie, 20 minutes later you're on your face babbling about your childhood.

Your neighbor doesn't have a garage any more? Yeah, we know.

I'm in Charlotte, N. Carolina, weather is fine 57* partly cloudy. Or as they say here scattered clouds. ??? I'm at the Midwood Smokehouse can't wait for the food to arrive, smells heavenly in here.
I'll start heading west tomorrow morning. SeeYa.

Well yesterday was the end of things here. It had snowed just bit up north at my cottage and out came the salt on Sunday, but here in Montreal things were still good with no sign of snow or salt. Yesterday that all changed with a 1 inch dusting of snow and what seems like a 2 inch dusting of salt.

Its amazing how they pour the salt on the roads nowadays, The brine solution is even worse, its really corrosive. Thats a product I wish they would ban here.

At least they don't use brine here, but when I was at the cottage they must of passed 5-6 times during the night, plow down making sparks and spewing salt. all for just a dusting.

Interesting how things change. Since being cold and snowy we have had several days of rain which seems to have washed most of the salt away. Today was 55, unbelievable for the 4th of Dec, so I got out for one more short spin around the neighborhood and top up the tank for the winter.

It was warm here today also.
I got the bikes out and cleaned them then put them back on the smart chargers.
Also drove to the woods and took down the treestand.
I have a rule not to ride after the first salting of the roads till it is all gone in the spring.

I don't like riding after the salters have been out either, yesterday was a drizzle when I left for work, later on it turned out to be a nice evening, and I wish I would have rode the bike in to work.
Right now its 30 and starting to snow again.
