Your turn to hang around and guard the fort.

 

Lol, funny guy !  Glad you managed to hang around and ride with us for the morning right to the Marina.  You DID miss Nunz whipping the piss out of Amendola2001 on the lake though ....   :D

 

Epic adventure with a fantastic group of Sledders. I am not ready to leave. Trails are awesome. A other big thanks to Dennis and Doris for being amazing hosts for dinner tonight and inviting all is crazy OCer's over for a night cap. Had a blast and hope to ride another OCer group ride soon :)

 

You're so very welcome !!  Very happy to have you over !!!  And btw your wife owes me a hug for the "package" ... ;-)

 

 

 

Never EVER expected to have over a dozen OCer's at my house at once (not even counting ourselves), but alas, it was a totally awesome experience !!!  What a great group of people, VERY polite and respectful, every one of them !!!  Couldn't have gone better !!!  So happy to have had you all over, it gave me a chance to talk to each and every one of you at least a bit.  Happy to chew the fat with WD, Bill the Magician, Carter, Nunz, amendola2001, Irreverant (Mr and Mrs), Nunzette, Sledjunk, Mike37, Fire242, AC+YA (who made a guest appearance, getting into Hearst just before supper).  

 

Missed Blake and Emily though, sure would have enjoyed having you over for a burger ... got too much leftovers 'cause you didn't come .... lol !   And Lily got to play with Marie-Josée some more ... What a great evening !!!

Yesterday was departure day from Hearst for Emily and me.
Gased up the truck at the Husky and bought Emily some nice stuffed animals.

Back to the Companion for final breakfast.
Here's the hardcore OC table getting ready to head to Dubreuilville: WD, Carter, AC/YA, Page, Lily, Bill.
Rest of the group are hiding around the corner, planning a less ambitious route.

On the way home I dropped in to the Moonbeam Clubhouse by truck, not sled.

X 2, Nunz...we had a great time, both on the trails and in between rides. Denis007 & Doris26 showed us great Hearst hospitality, opening their home to our OC horde for the Saturday night BBQ...lots of fun...and lots of BS flying around... :-D

 

And I must also mention that a special thanks goes out to the president of the snowmobile club in Hearst (although I didn't get his name at the time, Denis helped me determine afterwards that it is Serge Pominville.)   A big shout-out goes to Serge for helping us out trail-side (right beside Hwy. 11 at the former Bambinos locale, where TOP A Trail crosses between Hearst and Hornepayne.)  We thought we had a low gas situation on my sled, so were trying (unsuccessfully) to siphon out of Mrs. irREVerent's sled, when Serge was driving by on the highway, saw us, and stopped to see if we needed help.  He didn't have any gas with him, but back-tracked 10 miles to pick some up, came back to deliver it to where we were waiting, and then refused to accept any money for either his trouble or the gas itself...now that's a true snowmobiler, and an awesome example for all of us to "pay it forward" when the opportunity presents itself.   Thank you, Serge!   :right_on:  :right_on:

 

Forgot to acknowledge SJ's unfortunate off-trail "adventure"...and we brought home some moose meat...

Wow! So rare these days to find people like Serge. Indeed remember to pay it forward by more people would make the world a better place.

Blake and gang - nice meeting some of you at the Companion Friday. Special thanks to IQ Turbo and The Dutchman (sorry if I missed anyone else who stopped) for stopping and helping me pull out my friend who missed a corner.  Looks like everyone had a great trip.
