Freddie Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Is that were you're at? If so, this pizza shop is on the complete other side of the cities from us, we could caravan over, it's actually alot easier to find than I thought it would be. well, I'm out of the party, and it looks like we won't be going on a ski trip , but that means I'll probably be there we can work out the details as the time approaches yeah, i live in excelsior, and austin will be staying with me. would it be convenient for you to meet up with us somewhere before hand?...are you close to the excelsior area? if so..or if you know the area a little...we could meet at the coffee shop i mentioned previously...it is on county road 19 (if that means anything to you)...but i ..er we:-p (austin and i)...are open to other suggestions if it is something you are interested in!

You mean you don't know where my parents live?!? sorry, yea, they live just off of 19 in Maple Plain, we could come down that way, and then cut over to 494. were exactly is this coffee shop? I'm not too terribly familiar with the excelsior/tonka bay area, but my uncle lives there so I have a bit of an idea. EDIT: well a quick search on whitepages.com found it, I know exactly where that is, and it would be a fine place to meet (assuming of course that I can come). We could just head down to 7, over to 494, then off to Inver Grove Heights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorganM Posted December 9, 2004 Author Share Posted December 9, 2004 hehehe so should we try to go hit up roys? its an hour away, but its ragin offroadin Might be too high profile right now. Some dork in a Jeep was down there and got stuck. It's officialy closed so ppl getting stuck down there would be a bad thing. Especially for the people trying to get it re-opend this spring :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mschafe Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 IF we end up doing a bit of off-roadin, and i'm insane enough to actually tag along (which would be fun, of course), is there going to be someone there to pull my 2wd GL outta the snow and mud when I get stuck? Lol.. My cars a beater, so I really don't care what happens to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol.. My cars a beater, so I really don't care what happens to it. For sure; I always roll with recovery gear. Never know when you or someone else might need it I really don't think you'll get stuck. Those trails I marked is where I used to take my wagon when it was 2WD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
