Not much reason to stay in this state. Snowmobiling and family are the top ones. Snowmobiling is getting harder to keep going with land being subdivided all the time. Wouldn't surprise me if in 8-10 years there will not be interconnected trails in the state but only be separated areas to ride.

I will take my flatlander snowmobiling any day over mountain riding.

Nice warm day here today. I think it hit 93. Supposed to be 96 Wednesday.

Need to hit the pool tomorrow.

No mountain riding here. Wooden trails and fields. Most of our"mountains" are 2500-3500 feet. More like foot hills. LOL

I was busy this afternoon. I borrowed a friend's trailer to haul off the junk 03 ranger that I took the engine from. I used my Dad's tractor to push it on. Little sketchy especially since the trailer was on a decline. No issues though. Trailer is big, 14000lb 24'. Makes the ranger look small. I pulled the wheels and loaded it with scrap. It was dark after I finished so no pictures but will tomorrow morning. Here is when I first got it on

Good morning guys! It's Hump Day!

Looks good Jim! Looks like you need to flip your receiver or something. Front of the trailer looks pretty low.
