going to see the yoopers

So next week I will be in the u p anyone know of anything going on or any junkyards to hit up of if anyone on here is from up there?

 

Probably still waiting for the snow to melt.

 

Probably.

 

Be sure and have a few pasties while you are up there
(an honerary yooper)

 

One word "BEER"

 

Everything has been pretty well scrapped out, They had a huge metal collection program across the entire U.P. a couple years ago when the prices were up. You could check Lantanges (sp?) just outside of Escanaba, There was a place just east of Iron Mountain that had some cars, its right on the highway cant miss it. There is also a car lot north of Menominee that has some stuff including a very rough '35 ford.

 

Wholly wha, hey! I almost forgot, gotta check out

The tourist trap has a couple model A's and some other interesting stuff. If you have time you really should check out the ghost town at Fayette. Its a great place.

 

Went there last year, all I can say is wow. I will be in the marquette and ishpeming area.

 

Anyone else.

 

I just saw this on craigslist for the U.P. its in Gwinn, not far from where you'll be says make an offer. Would make a very different taildragger.

Yah Der Hay. Have one of dem der pasties

 

I think the U.P. is the only place in the world that still drinks Old Milwaukee beer. No one in Milwaukee would touch that stuff.
Always had fun up there. Great friendly people.

 

Kolaches anyone?

 

There's some stuff up near my deer camp......but I an't saying chit.... Actually old stuff is getting pretty hard to find up there now and usually rough, even by rust belt standards. Go see all the waterfalls and take the Pictured Rocks boat tour (Munising)

 

Be sure to stop in the Gay Bar in Gay, Michigan.

Used to go snowmobiling up in the Keweenaw (sp?) peninsula and when someone asked about my weekend would reply..."I went to the Gay Bar with my Dad"

What did he just say?!?!?!?

 

I heard they had over 300" of snow this winter up in the Keeweenaw.

 

Ok so I'm up here in da u.p. just as exciting as it was last year already out of stuff to do, and still have till sunday.

 

Drop on down to Iola WI, for the big swap meet.
