ohh. that looks much nicer than the phone pic I got. Very cool Muffy.
The ice fishing derby we were at this weekend also had an antique sled show. It was pretty cool. There were no Polaris' in it, which I though was a bit odd. Lots of Artic Cats and Ski-doo's.
Camp is where you make it.

Way cool Muffy. Hard to believe how crude looking the old sleds were.
I bought some tickets on a Polaris ATV this weekend. Just maybe, I'll get lucky too.

Congrats on the sled, looks brand new.. How did you win that... They sold tickets for it at the local vintage rally this weekend. I bought 4 tickets. I think I won it cuz Brad filled out my tickets for me. He is very lucky.
I am out of order until further notice. My "stupid people" filter needs cleaning and my "give a damn" batteries have run out.

That sled is in beautiful shape Muffy! Now you have something to show and ride (or sell) at the Old Timers Run next year!

Supposed to start snowing here around midnight, than again Thursday. Possibility of heavy snow next Sunday. Maybe Muffy will come and rescue us.

No, I didn't have it long. I decided I wanted a boat again, haven't had a decent sized fishing boat for over 8 years.

Dunno if any of you like to read books, but I am reading a fantastic book right now. For some reason, this book has really gripped me. Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell is the true story of Operation Red Wing, a Navy Seal mission in Afghanistan. I remember hearing about it on the news, but didn't realize what really happened. I am not finished with it yet, but already it has filled me with .... I dont know if there is an emotion that describes it. A mixture of respect, admiration, sorrow, patriotism, awestruck, thankfulness...I just dont know. For the specific people involved...wow.... Thank you. For the thousands of people in the military they represent...Thank you.
I think I will put this up on the general forum too.

I read that book, I was in the Navy when it happened, and I remember it like it was yesterday. very powerful read, and its true.

Over 3 million views. Is this thread some kind of record?
Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a hunting license and that's pretty close.
