Well I'm going to helping host a birthday party for my daughter Saturday at noon, so I'm out for afternoon stuff - her birthday is Friday and I thought we'd do all the party stuff then, but not so. So I'm out for the physical activity portion of the event (better anyway since I took Tues and tonight, Thurs off sick).
I'll prolly make dinner on Sat and can shuttle folks out to the bar if need be. I have to work at 10pm, but if you guys want a for sure DD I can try and get approval to go in late. Let me know.
...well, after I hit the 5:15 spinclass this morning I am just about ready to get going down to the big city. AND, I'm leaving plenty of tummy room for SUSHI :nod: . I'll have my cell on & charged 307-875-1445. yeah, it's still my business phone so don't be surprised if I answer 'Greyhair Bike Repair' :ne_nau:
Wooohoo! Looking forward to sushi tonight and some sake!
Bugs sorry you can't snowshoe with us... see you at dinner tomorrow night!
I have a chance to make a few $ helping out with some painting so I won't be joining you guy for sushi :-/ I'll see you at the dinner and/or bar tomorrow.
I'm going to have to bail. I had to have the front driveline in my Jeep rebuilt and just got it back so that's what I'll be doing tomorrow (hopefully after a quick, close x-country ski trek early morning!). Have fun!
Great Kapitan... you will have extra cash.. so nice of ya to buy us all dinner at Bohemian. :lol8:
Sorry about your Jeep TallSteve maybe next time!
I'm renting snowshoes at Canyon Sports in Riverdale, 13 bucks a day. I'll be coming down with Big Red
I'm sure you can get a cream for that. Talk to your doctor.Quote:

We had a great time though! Pictures soon!

Bought time. Having a blast. :2thumbs:
That's weird, how'd you get Don to do that? He's usually so shy and reserved!
:lol8:
Hey, so I'm wondering what to wear today. Is it fine to just wear denim pants, or should I go warmer?
Also, what shoes did you guys wear? Are regular hiking shoes ok, or did those get cold?
Depends on the weather. I wore hiking pants (with poly base layer) & hiking shoes yesterday. But expecting deeper snow so I'll likely wear snow pants & snow boots today.
I like hiking shoes though; lighter & easier, but they might get cold. Maybe add neo-socks & gaitors...?
Snow pants huh? K, I'll bring some along. Thanks.
I was able to borrow some snowshoes from a friend. I'm heading out in about 20 minutes. :2thumbs:
Hey guys, I won't be making it to dinner tonight as expected.
Today was a lot of fun. Thanks guys.
I've posted my pictures in the SnowShoeing section here:

hey,when are you going t.o join me at The bar named Sue?
UTOH! We never made it to the bar Kapitan. :ne_nau: We were all super tired and ended up going home after dinner. Wished we could have seen you at the Bohemian though!! :cry1:
Ooooh I tried calling you but I no longer have your correct number. Sorry we missed you.Quote:

anyone have a recommendation for where I can go to get snowshoes? I know REI does and a few other sports stores but I'm talking to experts here that I trust so I'm open to suggestions :nod:
Rec Outlet in AF had their MSR snowshoes on special last week. I don't remember the prices but it would be worth calling on.
You can get 25% off any order at canyons sports online in February. I know very little about snowshoes though, so I couldn't tell you if they have any good ones.
GHB- Tubbs really are the only option for snow shoes in my opinion. Mine have lasted over 10 years and are still rocking. You may spend a little bit more than the other brands, but they are WORTH IT. Check out:

Heather and I went with Northern Lites. 2000 lbs less to lift over every mile!

I liked the way yours & Heathers' held up and I like the Tubbs - I am torn - I will have to check 'em both out again. :2thumbs:
