i want my car done to go!

 

[Crazzy_Al]

Nick hasn't booked a site yet and is still working things out at work. I think he was trying to be funny.

My sprint phone works everywhere up there.

I know Al & I talked about a canoe/kayak trip last year...but the weather ruined those plans. Even if only a few people were down...I'd still try this year.

I'm game for pretty much anything. :devil:

 

[Trousersnake]

My buddy is pretty close knit with some high up people in Detour and Drummond Island.. we are getting a bunch of car's together doing an un-schedualed ferry run off the books to drummond island around 3am for some 1/8 mile action should be a blast

CALL ME!!! I'm sure a few of my buddies would be down to see that and a few might even want to play with what they bring up.

 

[Crazzy_Al]

Also, we're only a week away tomorrow, guys! :33:

Thats awesome. I was up on Drummond last summer and talked to a bartender asking how bad cops were on drunk drivers as it seemed the bar was the only place in town to do anything...her response was that there were no cops...

 

[Trousersnake]

Fucking rain!

 

[qtrmilemalone]

Ran into a few things, car won't be ready in time. This sucks

 

[Crazzy_Al]

This is MI, we're a week out, and you're worried about rain? I have a really good feeling that this might be the best weather year in the past few years. Truth be told, we're almost due some really pleasant Ignace weather. Relax.

Rain or not it's still a good time. Weather.com shows showers for thursday so that's a lot better than saturday during the actual show.

Agreed!

I mean, we live in Michigan, weather reports are NEVER right or consistent. For example:

Accuweather.com's 15 day forecast... http://www.accuweather.com/us/mi/saint-ignace/49781/forecast-month.asp?view=table is COMPLETELY different than Weather.com's 10 day forecast http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/49781

And just for kicks, here is NOAA.gov's extended forecast... http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=45.9180848&lon=-84.7761235
