Beach in December? Eat ur heart out northerners

Figured the kids and I would stop at the causeway the other day. Windy and a little chilly, but we aren't shoveling snow.

fireblade: That last picture is awesome!

MisterDave: Hurricanes are just a good excuse to have a hurricane party. Not one this year and last year was a cake walk.

That skidoo looks awesome, I want a snowmobile so bad. It looks like it was designed by the guy who did this:

Hey luvmyf150,

You really need to not advertise that fact that we have great weather in the winter...

We have enough snowbirds and tourists as it is now! We don't need anymore! As it is, you can't get into a good place it eat, find a parking spot at Walmart, or do more than 5 MPH under speed limit.

Between the Q-tips looking for an early-bird special and the tourist slamming on their brakes to stop and look at 'gators in the drainage canals, you can bearly get around...

Thanks. I believe the stealth war planes were the inspiration for the design of the newer ski-doo sleds. Looks like the same thoughts were there when designing the car. Riding a sled in the hills and mountains is like being on a roller coaster all day long lol.













The last one is a small avalanche I was caught in and rode out of lol.

In response to Wildcards expression of joy of the receiving those tourist dollars; Snowbirds are welcome here on the Mississippi coast.
The Sugar Bowl is next week just an hour away.
Come for Cruisin' The Coast and stay for the winter. Today's high 65.
