TLessB, you guys just need to have wrench parties and all sorts of ASV projects would get finished. You've got a lot of Astro talent up there in VANcouver.

Sounds like a neat idea.
Wrenchin this time of year sucks. It's cold and it's wet. Unless you have a heated garage.

Re: It Sucks My Van is STILL Off the Road...
with the good comes the bad...You guys live in some of the most scenic areas of the planet. I drool over the pics you guys post.
Meanwhile, I live in a in a coastal plain made of mostly mud. However, I'm down on the water again this week in a T-shirt and barefoot.
I hope to be posting pics of fish in the next few days.... 
md, you really must get that puppy runnin' again.

Really Tom?! You had to drag this post back up again? (And no I've never tried water skipping. Watched it though several times.)

OK...so no water skipping. However, you have posted up many, many pictures of vacations and weekend getaways in some of the most beautiful places in the country. AND...spending time with your wife and daughter. Man, where are your priorities. MAN UP, Dude. Go out to the barn...chase the chickens and goats out of the van and GET BUSY.
