slick caves and preservation of the species

[ICEMAN6166]

it is with great regret that i cannot at the present time offer the pics this thread really needs but my digi-cam died and while i did have my wife take pics with her cell phone, the cd that came with our phones are for windows which leaves them stuck in the phone until i can find a way to get them onto my linux operating system

in preparation for moving i have been digging my trucks out of the snow , 7 feet has fallen this winter here.
i clear off the tops of the trucks and a space wide enough to winch them thru

upon removing my 62 f350 yesterday i looked at the awesome hole left behind, bare ground on the bottom, 10 feet high walls on 3 sides and immediately came up with" icemans slick ice caves" and decided that if i had enough snow to keep some slicks entombed for many,many years some future Indiana Jones might discover them perfectly preseved in the 30th century.

i hope one day to provide the photo documentation, if for no other reason just to freak out the southern members.

Brian: You've probably already thought of this, but, does her phone have e-mail or texting capabilities? If so you can send the pics to someone and have them upload them for you. Just a thought. Sounds like cool pics.

Awesome, can't wait to see some pictures. We have had the mildest snow fall I've seen in my 48 years. Mid February and there isn't any snow on the ground. Never seen that in my life. Must be all going your direction. Enjoy!

The hell with buying parts from you, I'd like to buy some snow! We've only had our snowmobile trails open for 2.5 days so far this season. Send that stuff Illinois way, and I'll settle up at Slickstock.

Cory we have had a high pressure ridge pretty much sitting over the west coast and the inland northwest most of the winter. That causes the storm track to go visit Iceman and then when it doesnt go north it detours into the southwest with lots of rain. Doesnt hurt my feelings as I dont ski and no snowmobiling. I do feel for Iceman though that is a boatload of snow he is having to deal with. We have had alot of rain here I dont mind rain I dont have to shovel or push it anywhere it takes care of itself.

Fill one of those holes with casting resin- You'd have a full-sized model slick!

ICEMAN,
Did I miss something - Are you re-locating, as in moving to a different place to call home?

yes both sooner and closer than i had planned, have more room with a few less amenities, will be able to keep more trucks and parts than i planned too. this is good.

That's good news, hope it goes well.

It's all good. I hope the move goes smooth & well for you, Brian.

Maybe you'll have less snow to deal with in the future being closer to the water......??
