Trinary, probably no one else here knows where Big Bay is let alone been there. Would imagine Triple A and 510 are closed now.

Oh I'm far away from there now, back in the desert quail hunting where I belong. Don't know where Triple A is, but I drove down 510 and snow shoed into camp over the weekend. Shoed out and had a fine meal at the Lumberjack before I left. Was a nice vacation seeing some winter and my good friend Sven.

Triple A is a right turn off 510 acouple of mi north of the Yellowdog it heads over to Skanee. Did you know that that the book Anatomy Of A Murder was based on a murder that happened there in Big Bay? In fact things started at the bar and progressed to the campground just down from there.

 

i was in a plow from 7am tues till 630 wed nite wt 2 hours rest i hate snow it gives me a square ass from the seat

 

I hear you guys, man it's cold, 32 this morning. There's frost on my hubcaps. I guess I'll have to wear a hat.

 

YEAH SURE, and this afternoon you,ll probably have sunburnt kneecaps, lucky dog. Here in The Lowlands were snowed in as well. Will someone please post a photo of a BBQ to warm us up.

 

DITTO..wouldnt be that bad if the temp would go above 10

 

This minus 20 weather sure makes me appreciate a good plus 20 degree day!!!

Here's a photo that I took on Wednesday from my hotel room balcony on Waikiki beach, I think that there may be a BBQ down there someplace...
