Like the site, Father in law had a couple scout II's, don't have a current off road vehicle, but my next will be a project old skool off road vw beetle. Snowmobile is on the list(plenty of them here in Ohio for sale and cheap) and my 4 wheeler is under going major modification. At the moment though, most everything is on a temporary hold(hopefully temporary) trying to get household finances in shape, have a few medical issues complicating the employment issue. Be safe and enjoy! Just realized, your darn near Utah, I was in Fountain, Co.Last edited by old_skool; 01-19-2012, 02:47 PM. -
If anyone is interested, you can see more about my toys on my web page at
Click on on any of the 4 photos to open a sub-page about that toy. Each sub-page has a topic-specific slide show at the bottom of the page.
Toys are my '76 Scout II 4x4, motorcycling, ATV, and snowmobile.

I miss Colorado a little, use to go up Cheyenne mountain all the time, fish at the reservoir ponds for trout, go up to XS eleven mile reservoir for some pike fishing(like how I added the XS in that last one)You mean, like this?

When its to warm to take out the Mountain Max I pull out The Griz. Even took the Concours on a ride a couple weeks ago. Storm moving in tonight, though, weather taking a turn for the worse. It may be a "maintenance" weekend coming up.Leave a comment:

Sunny and 50F here.......no snow on the ground.....lots of folks out on there scoots......unusual weather to say the least. That blast stayed north and "jumped the hill" and hit the midwest on across.......Leave a comment:

Well, I spoke too soon...
It warmed up and started raining, then froze overnight. All the weight in the trees is making them fall over left and right or breaking limbs out of them, the roads look like a war zone for all the tree parts in them, and I'm currently running on my generator (until I run out of gas..
). They're saying Friday before power will get restored...

Nice to hear
We have now reached our daytime high of 5 above Farenheit. But it's sunny. That's similar to the "dry heat" of Az
. 6-7 in of s--w tomorrow.

Pretty much a big whoopdedoo about nothing.... Seattle didn't get anywhere near what they thought it would, most of the 'big dump' was south of Olympia. Centralia got almost 2', I got about 1' here at the house, but it's already started to melt. Yeah, it makes a big mess 'cause we don't get snow here often enough for the local govts to have much in the way of snow removal equipment (or drivers that know how to drive in it..
) so it'll be ugly driving until enough melts. In the 30 years I've lived here, they only plowed my local roads once after snow (that was the 'big one' in '85 they talked about on the news), I don't expect to see it this time...

Yeah if I had my ATV finished(another project) I might not complain so, maybe next year, I'd like to have a nice snowmobile, but here, there's not alot of places to ride unless you load them up and drive pretty far, and Ohio's weather is just too unstable, 54degrees today after all the cold and snow we had, now just a muddy mess waiting for the next drop in temps.Leave a comment:
