I feel sorry for you guys. How do you even live with 60 degree winter temps?
Not very well, that is how. At 60 degrees it is time to break out the thermal g string. At 50 degrees it is time for the thermal g string, boots and a winter parka. At 40 degrees it is time for.... for a drive further south to a warmer climate. Winter blows!!!!!!!!!!!
Did spend my afternoons swimming in a outdoor pool this past week, water was a little chilly though the hotel has not yet turned on the heater.

I'm sure we'll pay for it soon but it's supposed to be 70 here tomorrow.... Maybe global warming isn't all bad... 8

I'd rather be lost at the lake than found at home.

Heatman, what's the Yammie ATV?
Looks just like my two Kodiak/Griz 450s.
I have Snowmobiles also, but I loved riding the ATVs more. Not as much speed but I can go all season's on them.
Use them on the lake a lot in the winter once the snow on the lake is packed down.

You have a pretty good eye Beamer. It's an '06 Kodiak 450. In that picture it's actually stuck and had to hook the wench to the truck to get it out. That was a 17" snowfall... we don't get that much very often.

That happened to me on the lake last year. I went down to clear an area for a skating rink (I put a plow on in the winter to plow my driveway) and when the snow gets deeper than the bottom of the ATV, the wheels can't grip. Took us about 2 hours to get them off the ice, but that was after a 20" snowfall which doesn't happen too often.
We got 6" last night, so I'll have to plow the drive way tonight. Love that plow, it's like play time plowing the driveway.
Do you have a lot of trails near by for summer riding?
