2011 Twin Cities Defiance of Winter Get Together

[Gramps]

I've been trying to save some of this for y'all:

It has been really tough! It's like candy!

Next summer, we'll do it right with some cigars!

Now that looks tasty

I'll bring some cigars if we can light up inside. Think the wife will mind? :huh:

Think the wife will mind? :huh:

Which one are we talking about?

The one that'll let you do what ever you want...I'll bring some then.

Wish I lived closer so I could attend.

Well, OK, not.

But this does sound like fun - hope you peeps enjoy the time. :yahoo:

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

Wish I cold be there..

It was ******* cold!!

But look how Joe put a festive glow to the bitterness.

This was my remedy.

And these worked as well.

Joe was due for a drink right about at this point...looking a little frosty there my friend.

Rick, how is it that you are the only thing out of focus in this picture? :huh:

Joe & Phil

Wake up Cliff we're just getting started.

One of Joe's many pets.

It was a great time Joe, thanks for getting me out of the house. :clapping:

And these worked as well.

So that's why I had a headache this morning :agent:

Watch for the new TV show Toolmakers :lol2:

Good times boys.

I can't even begin to imagine that, that, well, degree of cold.

I will, hopefully, never complain about Kali's high cost o' living again..

Jeebus, it was 74F here today!

Good to see you frozen drunktard peeps had a good time!

Sorry I couldn't make it up there, but it's nice to see that the spirit is there. Great way to break up the non-riding season. While you guys were into your fancy refreshments, I entertained myself Saturday evening with this.........

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

I can't even begin to imagine that, that, well, degree of cold.

Just imagine standing outside in the single digits above zero smoking cigars!

Sorry I couldn't make it up there,

We'll have to get together next summer for sure! We'll have to put that Crown up against 1.)The value king - Jameson 2.)My current favorite - Balvenie

I can't even begin to imagine that, that, well, degree of cold.

Just imagine standing outside in the single digits above zero smoking cigars!

We/me couldn't have done it without the liquid warming first.

After 45 years of living in this icebox you think I would be use to it.

Actually my tolerance is getting lower every year...got to move.

 

[chrisflock]

Looks like you guys had a good time!

Wish I'd have been able to make it.

My attempts to defy winter have resulted in being...smote? smitten? smited? Eh, whatever.

Winter destroys radiators sucks.

Wish I could have made it as I was in Mn last week for a funeral. Got in on Thursday just in time for the cool down. Sure was a bit chilly. Back to a better climate now as you get a heat wave.

A few pics to prove I was there.

No wind chill here

I was reminded today that there are some who REALLY know how to defy winter:
