Is it June yet?

Is it June yet?

Doesn't feel like here. 15 Below with a 15mph wind feels it is in the -30s. But there will be a warming trend after NEXT month. Your "Blue Kool aid" would be more like a pop-cycle today

Jim - I think you meant to type Popsicle and not Popcycle.

I considered saying flopcycle

 

[Phil Tarman]

I'm planning on being there...depends a lot on how Joanne is doing by then.

 

[Coyote Chris]

I will be there. Right now, its 33 degrees, the ground is covered with six inches of snow and its heavy fog....same as yesterday....same as tomorrow....typical Spokane Winter. I am going stir crazy.

Got a shock on FB. A pic I posted six years ago came up...the day my new in crate leftover 2014 FJR showed up at my dealer. I have been retired 11 years at that point. Time flys.
If you want to do anything, do it NOW. We are all reaching are "best by" dates.

Come to the Ralley. There may not be a next year.

 

[junglejim]

Sad to say I won't make it to the ST/NT rally this year. I must attend a national conference in FL that week. Dang!

I'm hoping to talk someone into a different ride. Maybe:
MikeSim for a lap around Lake Superior or,
TurboJim for another "Tour da UP", or
Coyote Chris for camping in the Big Horns, or
(weather permitting) another Eastern NT event, or
other ???????

 

[Fieroguy]

Keep me in informed JJ. The Lake Superior lap is on my bucket list. Also open to 'da UP' trip. Retirement looms on the horizon!

 

[Yoda]

I just realized that I hadn’t made a reservation at Chris’s campground yet. Oops. Anyone else coming might make sure your name is on the list.

 

[Mellow]

Sent an email last week. They appreciate th hr free business.

 

[Phil Tarman]

It's not looking good for me. Joanne is still cheerful and happy, but I don't think I've got any business leaving her for more than a few hours.

 

[jmoore]

I am planning on being there. Dr. will check my latest eye surgery next week and give me the go ahead. Will miss seeing you, Phil.

Some things are much more important..

 

[Coyote Chris]

Gotta email them again and see if they got my reservation! 52 degrees today in the drizzel. I need alittle spearfish. No 70 degree days here yet.
I will sorely miss those that can not make it.....at 73, I dont even buy green bananas,,,here is hoping to better days ahead. I am still going to do a ride in Aug through Cody and the big horns.
To absent friends.....

 

[Mellow]

The RSVP at the top of this thread is only showing myself and Yoda going from this site, please update if you're going.

Also, don't forget to call or email the campground so they have you on record and you get the discounted rate.

 

[jmoore]

Sorry about that Joe. I can only read the small print with a magnifying glass and just over looked it.

It's all good, we'd still let you in..

 

[Chucksklrst]

Going to try and make it. The wife has some health issues that might preclude me from making the trip. Won't know until the last min. Might try the camping thing again, one more time.
