Snowbird Get Together 2016

[Captain H]

Well I've been home for three weeks coming Friday, if I can load and make some money I will. Remember, I'm not retired yet. When I get back I will give you a shout!!

Have a great time ThumbUp

Hey big dog , who is going to keep me from getting lost , lol. :xzqxz: I know where you are coming from , we are unable to make the northeast get together , because of timing is in middle of our season . Heard it maybe in Dover N.H. area this coming year , now that one is close to us . Should be able to get a day or two off . epper: And , yes I am the captain ,lol, & if we ran a boat , I could get a week off . BUT , IT IS NOT A BOAT , & I AM NOT THE BOSS .:AGGHH: LOL , but I do get a lot of coffee breaks ,:Coffee: all good ThumbUp

 

[Rosy]

Yes, he and Reggie were "sick", he just didn't want to
"buy" me a cup of coffee. That's why he was hiding when we showed up at his place in MA this summer, he was not there, the lady said! LOL
We missed you in MA, but we will see you in Florida!
Rosy

 

[tomg]

Well gee, money is more important than Friends? LOL ���������������������������� ������������������
Have a safe trip, and "we will see you on the flip flop"!
so, when you get back in this neighborhood with your Stallion, give a shout and we can get together and do something..Maybe go to Tom's house and raid his refrigerator! ����������������������
See you soon! Give our best to Miles..Tell him to behave!
Rosy

Raid all you want!! Being single, the fridge is empty most of the time anyway...and usually only a couple of beers in it.

Well the weather pattern has changed 3 times in the last week and not for the better !! I hope it changes again before Sunday/Monday. If the front moving our way speeds up we may be in for some very nice weather but, if it stays the same, we may get a little wet !!!

Roger that Tom, we've been watching it real close and for 4 days they said no rain on Sunday which is when we are heading over. Last night on our local station they said 60% chance of rain, dang!!! Other than a brief shower we haven't ridden the Tri in the rain, looks like we might be in for a treat getting to that side of the state.

 

[Rosy]

We have a saying in NH, " wait 5 minutes it'll change", speaking of the weather..Maybe we need a saying for Florida too!
With El Niño in the mix, the whole country is in turmoil about the weather..tornados, major snow storms, early hurricanes, now the unsettled weather...

Can't make it now....

Hi Tom,

Gary and I will not be able to make it to the Snowbird Gathering. Our dog sitter got sick and is out of commission for a week and we will be forced to stay home with our two fur babies. I am contacting the hotel now to cancel our reservation there as well.

We are disappointed and will have to shoot for next year!

Thanks much for accepting us into your fold.
Pam and Gary Dutton

Having to cancel . . .

Joann and I are having to cancel the event this year. I was waiting till the last minute to see if my back issue would allow me to ride, but it's not cooperating. Hope everyone has a great time.

 

[Rosy]

I am sorry but this cold weather snap which is coming can not be blamed on me. I have been here and the weather has been warm..Blame the other people who are on the way, or are about to get started..I am not going to name names, BUT!
So, you people better open your enclosed trailer or shake your fenders on the trailer to leave the cold in Georgia before coming into Florida!⛷

Rosy, I was all set to type something about the cold snap coming and going to ask if you opened the trailer in Georgia but I can't, we all know it's that El Nino thing but I hope you brought your winter woollies with you, lol. See you soon, we should be at the hotel by 3 pm if we don't get drowned out by the rain.

 

[Rosy]

Yes, blame on the guy coming from the North, but as told by Tom, I did open my trailer in Georgia, but since I have been here in Florida, for a few days, it has been in the 70 & 80s, so I did my job!
Now it is up to the other "guys" to open theirs! LOL

Snowbird

Well Rosy, I just finished loading the trailer. 30 degrees and light snow flurries before I got the doors closed. From the looks of the forecast I'm bringing my winter clothes.

 

[skuuter]

This time of year just never seems to work out for us to make Events.....

 

[Rosy]

Guys & Gals, those people who predict the weather get paid $100,000+ a year and they are 75% wrong, so, what is wrong with this picture, They may say this & that, but it will come out that & this! LOL :gah:
Hey, at 50 F, no matter how you cut it, it will feel better than -30F with sleet & snow! ️️️️️ ⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷⛷🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬
I could be pushing that white stuff up North, or turn my Gerbins up another notch riding in Florida! LOL
I'll take Florida!
Rosy

 

[peteg59]

Getting 2~4", or 3~6" snow tonite, depending on which channel's weatherman you trust.
More snow predicted for Tuesday, (primary voting day in NH).
Not sure when you & Janice are returning to NH Rosy, but any warm Florida weather you bring back will be appreciated!
Have fun & ride safe down there.ThumbUp

 

[Rosy]

Thanks Pete, thinking of you guys up there in the North.
Been in the 70s and now it is pouring rain. Haven't put the trike on the road yet. Rally starts Sunday, need to bring Gerbins because it is going to be cool down here, cold to the locals.
Take care..
See you soon.
Rosy

Rain, rain, go away!!!! Dang, what a miserable day it's been here on the west coast, it's supposed to clear overnight so we're thinking about a 9 or 10 AM departure, will have to see what sunrise will bring. Looking forward to meeting all you great folks.

[Rosy]

Not my fault...Not my fault..I did not bring this rain or cold weather...I did what Tom told me..Opened my trailer to let the cold out in Georgia. I have been here over a week and the weather has been warm .....
So, please, don't blame me..or throw tomatoes at me at the rally...LOL
Hey everybody, have a safe trip to the Rally, you are correct Captain H, didn't get a chance to get the trike set for the Rally need to go out and set the tire pressures before we take off this morning.
See you soon! ️
