Saturday October 8th, thanksgiving run
« on: October 04, 2016, 09:55:45 PM »
Loose plans to go to McLean on Saturday October 8th.
Meet for about 10am. I think the store parking lot is still open. If not maybe meet at the parking lot by the pond.
Decide on the trail once we see what kind of group we have.

I'm working Saturday but will be heading to Mclean after work to camp for the weekend, would you be interested in a Sunday run too, perhaps?

I'm in! Know the store, not familiar with the 'pond' location though. :)

I have to check my availability for doing both Saturday AND Sunday but I'm definitely interested if I can swing it.

Looks like I'm good for both days. Let me know if we're still on.

I can make one of these days, weather has killed my other plans.

Saturday works to go around in the snow

Looks like Trevor and I are good for Saturday. So stick with original plans to meet at the McLean creek store for 10am. Dress accordingly. Bring food and water. Make sure your winches are ready and tug straps are close at hand. I have a few ideas on trails.
As for Sunday I know there will be a couple other groups out there.

Today is good, Sunday looks like a no go for me now too. (Sorry DB!)
See you guys there sometime closer to 10, depending on roads.  :o

Glad you guys had a good day.....wimped out because I wimped out :-\.  Not really a good excuse.

Good that Trevor's jeep made it home two runs in a row.

Yup, great day! Weather held out for us just enough to make it interesting...
Thanks to all for making it a great day!

Too bad not all the vehicles were up to the task... ;)
(Just kidding Trev!) I've got some minor fixing' to do too.  



A few pics...
