Maine

Almost 50 degrees and brown.. But we have snow now!

 

^^^
About right. It was closer to 60 in Farmington, though. We had a Christmas shoot at my dad's range with my extended family and we were all in t-shirts. And I rode my motorcycle that morning (that's a first, riding on Christmas) and didn't even need to zip the liner into my jacket. Crazy.

Then on Monday I woke up and it was 6 degrees at the house, lol.

 

Same here....mid 50's. Sat in the sun on the front deck around 11am and had coffee with family that was visiting. Shirt sleeves and considered getting deck furniture back out of the garage. Boxing day ...brrr.

Now into the deep freeze for a few days. Next Sun/Mon they are calling for rain and up to 40*F.

I actually feel bad for snowmobilers. Some nice not to have a swamp on the floor of the garage yet though.

 

Sugarloaf centered over your cab in the distance?

 

yessa i believe so it was taken on top of Ira mountain

 

I used to have a cool shot of mine with Katahdin in the background. Taken from a rest area/lookout on I-95N up toward Houlton. You know Houlton. The town that time forgot....lol

 

Gee, must have been a good shot. Katahdin is beautiful. Since the Mills moved out, every town in the area "time forgot".

 

Anyone else interested in some sort of a meet up any time in the future? Maybe do some parts installations on a members vehicle? Some service, fix some stuff? You know wrenching and chatting.

 

If I was back in Maine I'd be down.

 

So are you moved away or just out of town for extended period?

 

Not moved away yet. Working in Utah right now. I was only in Maine maybe three months last year and haven't decided where I'm going to wind up.

 

Well if you do come back, its always nice to hang with a fellow member. I remember reading about a meetup one time in Scarborough a few years ago but i couldnt make that one.

 

I have a lot of work to do on a tundra.









I'm going to need to do a firewall tub to make everything clear.

 

Any suggestions on a good dog friendly cabins up north to rent tomorrow?

 

How about Greenland Cove Cabins, on east grand lake in Danforth? I have gone every year since i was born. This year will be the 28th. Not sure if they still are open in the winters or not.

 

Thats some sexy hardware. this is the perfect example of something people could get together and get in on.

 

I'll probably do the firewall tub myself. That will be more work than one day can handle. I enjoy bolting new parts on.

 

Thats fine, but stuff like that is perfect for someone to post up here for a get togeter. Be nice in the spring, someone brings a grill and maybe some dogs and burgers, maybe some tools. You get the idea.

 

We had two. One this past fall.... Great group and the ladies made it even better. A "mod day" has not been done up here mainly because of time I think. Lots of projects in their own areas. But if you want to donate a truck to thrash on.

 

Haha you say that, but the reason i came up with the idea is just a week ago i gathered up 2 friends and headed to boston where another friend had access to a machine shop with a vehicle lift. We spent basically the day installing my equal length headers. Bolted it all back up and then drove it home that night.
