Well just got back we nicked off 350km of trails through Algonquin Park/Haliburton, I would like to say it was nice scenery but it's tough to see when your clipping thought the trail at 60mph. Took my sled up but had the pleasure of riding one of the spare sleds, a 2013 ski Doo renegade, what an awesome ride!!!



I had a 2012 Polaris Switchback that I put 7,500 miles on. I could never go back to a conventional 121 sled. These crossover sleds are so smooth and turn so well I can't see not having the extra length. If I get back into the sport I would be very tempted to switch brands and give the renegade a go... I have ridden them a few times with various motors and they are nice for sure!

We got 4-6 inches of fresh snow last night. Commute in was lots of fun. Once at work none of the parking lots were not plowed. Lots of unhappy people. With 4 wheel drive it is a blast.

My wife sent our boys into the back yard to play yesterday afternoon. Shortly after she had to retrieve one of them from a snow drift.

Headed to check on the boat. I may even climb inside with a beer and think about warmer times. :)

More snow. Fixed the snowblower, what looked like a governor issue turned out to be a worn throttle valve and governor rod. Replaced the carb (after 17 years), rod and springs. Runs like new.
1998 Toro 3000 GTS with Suzuki 47P 2 stroke commercial rated engine. Back before the EPA put its ugly face into the small engine market, this was one of the favored engines for lawnmowers as well, Toro used them for years. Only draw back being Japanese, the parts cost is high.

Why my ex-wife is my ex wife reason #53: We could redo our taxes from the last 5 years and file jointly. We would get no penalty and get a SIZEABLE refund that we would split 50/50.

She doesn't want to do it out of pride. What the **** is wrong with this woman?!!
