kicking the dust off and coming out of hibernation;)

[BigDiesel]

Hey peoples-Im still alive, still suffering from gigantism and still a wiseass who knows how ta slang emojis like Betty Crocker hustles cookies

I moved to the UP of MI to help a friend start up a new business venture and it worked out which is great because Amy and I had to give the house in Cudahy back to the bank before we left....that sucked. But, now we're enjoying life in the UP alot more, growing our our veggies in the backyard, amongst Amy's 11 (yeah 11, NO i didnt kill one we just got a weird number) chickens, 7 Koi fish in our pond, and now Mia has her oldest daughter Ivy, and Domino from her 2 breedings to keep her company, along with Pearl, a Mini Schnauzer from another Bloodline (and she's completely white-hence, 'Pearl'...Domino is Black and white...yep, Im reallll original with dog names.and you guessed it, the next one will be Spot;p)
I'll get some pics up soon, there not on this computer.

Scotty Jr still goes to school in WI, but his mom and I have been getting along swimmingly for years, and Cheyenne is graduating in a month they come up to visit/hang out when schedules permit with school/holidays I see them every month sometimes 3 times

Amy just enjoying the Dog Breeding, doing grooming and raising the chickens and generally enjoying being a Yooper.

and I keep trying to slip and fall on her 3 weeks/mo to see if I'm a candidate for some free Xtense I just want to see what she looks like with a pot bellylease:

i'm not sure if you're kicking off the dust or digging out of the snow but i'm glad you're back on either way

 

[BigDiesel]

snow melted away a week ago...Im sure i will see more before June gets here. Looking like Weds/Thursday some snow showers coming.
I almost got Projekt to come up here before the weather went south....he still might come up this summer tho

One of my oldest Busa-bros is coming up today to hang out for a short weekend, just bringing dirtbike this time we're riding trails up here more than roads-there's about an equal amount of both up here
Firedog been moving around so much all I can do is catch him on FB, or once/twice a year bump into him in MIlwaukee. Havent seen/heard much from anyone since I relocated, but that was a self-inflicted situation Im working on rectifying.

 

[RedBusarider]

Welcome to MI.

Are the roads in the UP bad?
The roads in the LP are terrible most everywhere.

One good thing about riding is we can miss some that are impossible to miss in a 4 wheel vehicle.

I assume you haven't started to grow anything yet this year. Next week is forecast to have a low of 30° down here.

BTW where in the UP are you?

 

[BigDiesel]

Im in Iron Mountain, and yep--its snowing out right now

just getting seedlings going under FL 6500k T5s right now, starting greens and some sunflower varieties first, then I'll start popping veggies and hot peppers Mid-May and throw everything outside 2nd week of June. Its nice having a big porch; I can toss my trays with cups onto lil tables out there and the hot-tub provides enough warmth at night to fight off frost in there because I have it covered in the same plastic we use for Hoop Houses

you guys would probably snap if you looked thru my phone pic gallery--theres more Flower-porn than Bike shots:O
and I gotta say-being a Full-time Gardener has been much more beneficial to my mental n physical health than any of my other work....
But I just found out, I live less than 100miles from Sceny Pass....its in the UP, look it up-My New Official Play ground gotta get the bike set up to scream, the SRT8 only runs 140-150 realy comfortably-I honestly miss that last 30-40mph call me crazy, but.....Gotta Have It!!!
Still sourcing body work for new Graphic scheme, once thats done I should have the Beast up n running in a week or so

[BigDiesel]

Lycan my Brotha, whatup!!?

And Fernman---you know I keep it 7:10 homes all day, every day....4:20 is for beginners
My buddy wants me to go Visit the 10th Planet Bjj studio in Boulder w/him, how far you from there?

On a side note-Amy just had two of her girls bred recently; Ivy and Domino both were in heat this month, so she set them up w/some studs from a breeder in WI near our old home, and we should have 1-2 litters coming up in June, so this will be a busy summer

 

[Lurch]

Welcome back brother.
I will be up your way in a couple of weeks. Heading to Munising for Ice Cream. I will try and catch up with you and the Bride if possible.

 

[BigDiesel]

Sounds good brutha! The weather has been AMAZING up here lately (unbelieveably) I am getting the Busa a fresh battery next week, then just need Plastics and we can RIIIIIIIIIDDEEE!!

 

[Wag]

Hey, BigD! How the hell are ya? Good to hear you and Amy are doing well!

--Wag--

 

[BigDiesel]

Life is good Wag-living the Dream

and wishing Manny snapped Mayweather's smack-spittin' ugly mug, off his neck, kicked it into the crowd and when they threw it back in disgust, he would Pele'-kick it all the way into the rafters...
oh, did I mention I wasted $100 on the biggest dissappointment to Sports Entertainment/Boxing, since Tyson got the nibbles in the ring with Holyfield??

 

[Wag]

I heard that fight was pretty crappy. Glad I didn't even waste the gas to go to a bar and watch.

Glad you're doing well!

--Wag--

 

[BigDiesel]

2 major dissapointments with the fight:
1)I paid to watch it.....worst robbery in a PPV Ive ever watched. and Ive seen every A. Silva fight of his career w/the UFC, that leg break....after the lame 2nd rnd-Ko in the 1st Match....it sucked. But NOT this bad.
2)I found out my Dad is big fan of Mayweather and In His opinion dancing around and hugging like a ***** is "boxing"....SMDH
Now I remember why I love MMA so freaking much even the guys who get wrestle-phukd in UFC put on better matches IMO, and anyone who does it wont be back anytime soon for a repeat performance. Mayweather should get mothballed for that lame-dik performance......He's AS BIG a disgrace to Boxing, in my eyes, as Jon Jones is to MMA.
but that could have its own thread....
