Meet and Greet/ Possible Mod Day Summer 2016

Great idea. I'm down for a meet n greet

 

There are some nice cruises that leave from the Boston and/or Portland, ME that travel north.

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

exactly make it happen

 

I'm in the Amherst area so fairly close. I go anywhere from Berkshire East to Killington....I'm definitely down to do some boarding this season. I didn't get out once last season.

 

My little one just turned one last week. She's my first one. It's a fun and tiring adventure.

 

I'm a pretty laid back rider. I don't hit the jumps or half pipe or anything, just enjoy the trails. I used to ski growing up and switch to snowboarding at some point. Never took lessons so I'm definitely not advanced with it, just get out there and enjoy it.

I usually go to Gore but I'd make a trip to any mountain for a TW Ski/Snowboard trip :-D

 

Anyone into ice fishing at all??

Btw my name is TJ, live in Southampton. This is my third truck, but first Tacoma. I'm an avid shooter and angler. I love being outdoors. I'm engaged and will be getting married in April. I've got two coonhounds but no kids and @Blais03 is my younger brother.

 

Always wanted to try ice fishing. Maybe this winter.

 

I've done it once but nothing to serious. I'd definitely be down though. I fly fish all the time, mostly on the Swift and East Branch of the Westfield. I'd like to get more into ice fishing. I shoot too!

 

I try to go out ice fishing as often as possible, all over the place. Maybe we'll have a pre-meet to the summer meet lol

I'm in! I can swing a weekend! Since all the cool kids are doing it, I'll chime in. My name is Cameron. I went to college to fly planes. I flew some, got a few ratings, then stopped because money. Finished school with a degree in fine arts (crazy jump from aviation) concentrating in metal sculpture. This landed me a job during school working in a fabrication shop which exposed me to all sorts of fun stuff. Mainly high detail finish work. Out of school now I work as a welder for my father working on some pretty extravagant rich people houses. I'm looking into renting a space for a fabrication shop, but need to save more money first. If the meet is at a house with 220 and a 50 amp circuit, I could possibly bring my tig for some minor welding projects. No promises though...

 

In.... I'm Tony, originally from Boston, moved to western ma for work. I am new to shooting and just tried fly fishing this year. I also ride a dual sport motorcycle, mountain bike, and camp.

 

Man, icefishing. Lots of memories from childhood. Haven't been since then.

 

Anyone for left overs??

 

Did I see in one of the threads that you have a cyclic handle for your gear stick? I've got two of my mechanics trying to dig one up for me. Been wanting to do this for ages!! That's awesome

 

I'm in. I'm in wilbraham. Got some great challenging trials out near turkey hill. Where would ground zero be for this summer meet?

 

I do! It's the mason grip outta a bell 206. Friend of mine is a heli mechanic and just had boxes of stuff in one of our hangers. I wish I could say you could order one, but I can't find them anywhere!

 

Yeah I was thinking it was a 206 grip. I can get my hands on them pretty easy if I wanna pay but I'm trying not to pay lol. The company I work for has plenty of aircraft, one will show up for me at some stage lol

 

The guys I worked with were all airplane guys. Complete stroke of luck this guy got this box. He got the box of parts after the company he worked for went belly up. I just happened to be rummaging around in the hanger that day! Woot!


Where'd you go to fly choppers? I've been toying with the idea of going out to Arizona to learn fly them. Seems there's more jobs with rotary right now.
