Not this time. You want a ride tomorrow night? I think you're on the way?

I'm pretty sure all the talk of Jello, etc. scared her off.
Geeze, it took everyone 6 hours to notice I was gone?

I did tell Lainey. Had a doctors appointment up north. Just got back.

Your jello shots didn't scare me away - as long as Bass is going to make me some sugar free ones

Have a great, safe time!!
You should talk to my father. He just got another new snowmobile and we were checking the top speed on the local lake. After taking a few runs on it to compare its performance with mine we decided to switch and take a run on each others.

Long story short, his track is studded and thus does not skid / slide under heavy braking. My track is not and likes to get squirely. He locked up the track on my snowmobile around 40 mph. It came out from under him and rolled right over on top of him! He wacked his head good on the ice but thankfully the helmet took it all and his head is fine. He was able to absorb most of the weight of the sled with his leg on its way over but still took it in the side a little bit. He's feeling a little sore and thinks he might have bruised some ribs, but he was able to make it home OK and finish out the weekend. We'll see how he's doing tomorrow.

Bummer for me, he broke the windshield, bent the hood, and destroyed my homebrew custom handlebar setup I don't even know how to source the parts to create it all over again.

Anyways, I survived the entire weekend no harm done and had a blast up there. We did about 150 miles this weekend.

Plenty of snow in VT!

I was almost going to take a picture of him pinned under my flipped snowmobile, but felt it more prudent to get it off of him.

Was it because I care for him, or because it was MY broken sled on top of him. That my friend, is the right question.
