Yeah, what college you were talking about.

 

What's in P'Burgh you ask?

And that's exactly why I go camping up there! We go every year around this time and came right on Lake Champlain. My uncle and cousins have boats on the lake so they come pick us up at the shore and we go hang out on one of the islands for the day. It's awesome, very relaxing. When we still had our dog, we'd just let him off the leash and run cause, we're on an island, where's he going to go?

Beast was the beer of choice where I went to college. We used to be able to get a 30 rack for $4.99 at the local P&C. I was a little further west at Clarkson. Same great beer, same low price. I also had friends at SUNY P-Burgh and when I came out to party with them I got introduced to Beer Balls. Foreign concept to me before that night, and about the only thing I really remember from that night!

I know all of those areas very well. I grew up in Albany and had plenty of friends who ended up at Siena.

Oh God, the beer balls! I honestly think that was where I first saw them too. Haven't bought one since around college, but I remember how amazed I was at those things. Haven't thought about them in years.

 

Holy shit....beer balls! We used to get those all the time too. Wow!
Memory lane!

 

I am actually headed up there for a camping trip with the family the third week in July. Love that place.

 

These were the ones that we used to get!



draft alright....

 

@tacobell007 so If I don't end up buying a bender to do my own bumper, I'm most likely ending up with an SOS bumper. Eddie seems like a real cool dude.

 

He is.....SOS is the way to go.

 

I'm still a fan of the SSO hybrid bumpers..

for the money not a bad bumper, and if you want to go high clearance, you can get the wings for it. but you CAN retain the stock fog lights, it is a bit pricey, gives a solid recovery point, and a winch, as well as some front lighting with a 20" OR 30" lightbar.. thinking I'll order one with cutouts for the rigid SR 20" pro..

 

The look nice. But my problem is that I'll feel like a. Idiot if I spend that kind of money, toss a slimline on there, come around a corner on a trail and take out the corner of my bumper. Then I'd have almost a 4 figure bumper... And a smashed remaining part of a bumper which does me no good.

Poorly worded. Running low on sleep. But I think you get the gist

 

Oh i get it, if i had the time and a space to do it I would build my own.... tight fitting with extra anchor points to the frame.. just no time..

 

Actually that's East. Halifax is about White Mountains level on the parallel, but I know what you mean. If you can get even further east, the Cabot trail in the Highlands Park on the North Island is just insane. It's a long way from Halifax but holy balls it's worth it. I've done the Cabot a few times on the motorcycle, it's just awesome there.

 

Morning all!
Another week and I'm going to have to check my phone just to see what day it is because my schedule is all screwed up, lol.
Worked 4 days last week, and took Friday off so I had a 3 day weekend. This week I'm working 3 days, off Thursday, then working Friday & Saturday. 1 day weekend, then Jury Duty Monday & Tuesday. Working Wednesday, then I'm off until the following Wednesday for a 3 day work week.

 

This fall I'll drive down to NJ to pick up a surface table. And eventually I'll get a real big boy bender. If I'm making my own it's going to be mint.

Instead I'll just work OT for awhile and buy one. It's be less expensive that way for the time being.

Really looking forward to some decent recovery points up front and a bar to tie the kayaks off to

 

Good luck with that. I got lost just trying to read it.

 

Yeah...
4 days on
3 days off
3 days on
1 day off

God bless you. Haha

 

I will probably shut the office down tomorrow at 11am and then return on Monday morning at 7am. Unless I die of alcohol poisoning.

 

All this talk of vacation... I feel obligated to be the jackass that drops this:


That's right, it's Friday for me! Been working stupid hours lately so I'm looking forward to a few days off with no phone service.
