East Bound and Down...
 

RIP Jerry Reed...:)

Eliminator called and I leave AM tomorrow/Saturday from SoCal to Rochester...:eek: Taking the newest 28' Speedster to McMillans...:ernaehrung004:

No snow stuff, OK....:angry-smiley-038:

Where did windshield come from?

its snowing here in toronto now! hope you own a winter jacket!

Yea, it does NOT look good...I brought a windbreaker...:eek:
I'm in OKC now and might have to wait it out in Ohio...possibly I can get the "return" boat out of Buffalo to meet me on Tuesday...truck is not equipped for snow either...

Shue, the live radar shows snow squall activity along the south east shore of lakes Erie and Ontario. You best have some California snow tires on the truck.

Aeromarine made the winshield

Highway's only...:rolleyes: In St Louis for the night...I'm gonna try going through Pitts, then up to Rochester...;)

Gary, I live on Irondequoit Bay at the north end. McMillan's is about 9 miles south of me on the south end of the bay.

Hate to tell you this, I woke up to 4 inches of new snow this morning. You're going to need more than a windbreaker. I'm looking out at Lake Ontario right now as I type this - more squall clouds out there. Stop by Walmart and buy some boots!!! Actually the ground isn't quite cold enough for this stuff to stick around too long. We'll get 2-5 inches every day for the next few days (all lake flakes) and by the time you get here, it may all be melted or just an an inch or so on the ground. Here on the Southeast side of Lake Ontario, we pretty much don't see the grass from Nov-March.

I will be down at McMillan this weekend picking up my jetski - when do yout think you'll be in town?

Be careful coming through the Lake Erie/Lake Ontario corridor (between Erie PA and Buffalo) - when the winds are right, the lake flakes can drop 1 foot/hour......I recommend not coming through there at night over the next couple of days - the winds are right across the lakes....

Good luck.

Where's the Sun?
 

Schue - still squalling here.

This is the shot out my back window today - typically we're looking right at Lake Ontario.

Today, the gray/white is all snow & squall clouds.

Thanks AJ....:drink:

I delivered around 3:30p today...nice, drive run from outside of Columbus. Watchin' WTC to see what tomorrow brings...:rolleyes:

Staying by the airport in Roc t'nite, then back to Buffalo (maybe) in the morning to pick up the 22' D and get the heck outta "snow country"...:ernaehrung004:

BTW, I def. want to come back up in the summertime...just beautiful country...:ernaehrung004:

We have some great boating waters. Season is short. If you make it back when I'm in the water, let me know, I'd be happy to show you some of our waterfront "sites".:drink:

i notice you have the boat shrink wrapped. does the bottom get dinged up at all from road crap?

Looking at the pictures makes me glad, I live where I live.

You have no idea....:mad:

Our season is short, no doubt.

Funny thing is our work ethic goes in the toilet as soon as the weather breaks. I'm sure if someone were to plot the productivity for our industries in this geo, June-Aug would be pretty amusing.

Fortunately, my boat was shipped back to the west coast again, so I won't have to wait until May to get back in it again.

Up here we joke about if we'd be able to afford our boats if we lived in climates like yours - we're afraid we'd never work.

Not that I have ever noticed, wrap the top and down the sides...of course, this one got pretty dirty on this run.:eek:

Just the front parts of the trailer seem to take abuse, which we wrap with protective tape. The newest trailer coatings are resistant (warrantied) not to chip off...:cool:

Made it out in fine shape..it was a little slippery around Erie on Thursday, but besides the COLD, the roads were fine...in Joplin now.
