Last year the first trip in the panel was on the 13th of April, this year we still have a foot and a half of the crap in our yard. It's still tempting to take one out for a drive because the roads are clear and dry but it's supposed to start warming up next week so maybe the crap might soon be gone...fingers crossed the best I can which is barely...lol

Howdy Ian!

I had to cancel our last Chapter G2G because of lack of interest.

Sean and I had a G2G at the Diner last October. Had a good time.
Met Roy at the Diner For a G2G in August on his way home from his trek across Canada.
