AmyG won't let me use her thread...View Messages“We're starting a FYAO type trip for MLK weekend (which is in Jan) in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The chatter on the FYAO made AmyG worry that the regular FYAO trip folks might get confused and think the trip had changed dates and locations. So, I started a TRIP on the trip page and will keep all chatter separate from the FYAO threads.” 11:40:14 AM 9/19/06 “I signed up as a maybe. I would need to take vacation days for that weekend so will have to let you know more towards the mid of December.” 11:45:13 AM 9/19/06 “Grand Island might work well for this. last edited: 9/19/06 11:48:50 AM” 11:47:33 AM 9/19/06 “This Grand Island? How would we get there in the winter? http://www.munising.com/Maps/grand_island_maps.html” 11:50:35 AM 9/19/06 “Sounds Grand to me!” 11:54:43 AM 9/19/06 “AmyG told me she is better than all of you and that you all get confused easily.” 1:49:08 PM 9/19/06 “"How would we get there in the winter? wolfeyes" Ummmmm... walk” 2:37:11 PM 9/19/06 “Walk? What, like miles on a frozen lake?” 3:07:24 PM 9/19/06 “I think this should be called FYYAO. Freeze Your Yooper Ass Off” 4:09:02 PM 9/19/06 “i'm a weak maybe. the driving distance, and the fact that i'll be getting off work at 5am friday morning makes this very prohibitive. but i dont believe in counting my chickens before theyre plucked” 4:48:06 PM 9/19/06 “Gawd, that aimee gee is an ass!” 5:42:53 PM 9/19/06 “I'm down as a maybe? Are we talking base camping, going back-in around 2-3 miles, then exploring the surrounding area. If your thinking of trying to do a long distance trip, (point A to point B), then I'll probably opt-out. Deep snow + heavy load + long mileage's(5 miles or more)= pain? last edited: 9/19/06 5:46:00 PM” 5:43:36 PM 9/19/06 “I'm in.” 5:50:52 PM 9/19/06 “Pictured Rocks in the winter, with cheeseyweenies, come on, ya gotta be kidding me, this is the greatest trip EVER!” 5:53:59 PM 9/19/06 “Mebbbeeeeee” 5:54:27 PM 9/19/06 “Ya mean I may now meet the infamous lizs on top of cheezyweeeenies.... what else do I get if "I act now" dammit!” 6:01:57 PM 9/19/06 “"I think this should be called FYYAO.

What else, throw in an apple peeler or something!” 6:27:36 PM 9/19/06 “No, I believe I suggested it and you shot it down because you thought folks might think the trip was meant for Yoopers only. Nigal... you MUST come!” 6:28:46 PM 9/19/06 ““"I think this should be called FYYAO. Freeze Your Yooper Ass Off” dlm No kidding!

Looks like it's taking off. I'll have to do some research.” 7:56:48 AM 9/20/06 “Is AmyG allowed to hike on this trip too?” 7:58:39 AM 9/20/06 ““And a Nigal-Free trip! nigal goes on trips?” Hey, the whole "you're not real unless you hike with tters is Stickmon's thing.

LOL! last edited: 9/20/06 8:05:11 AM” 8:04:17 AM 9/20/06 “Maybe all the posts about Nigal not wearing pants has him scared.” 8:12:31 AM 9/20/06 “OK, I simply cannot believe that BB, Capn Bobo, Marko, Nigal and especially sacco(!!!) haven't used this as a ruse to set up a wet (errr, frozen??) T-shirt snow wrestling match between Tara and AmyG!!! LOL! ;-P (you guys are slipping!) last edited: 9/20/06 8:49:19 AM” 8:48:20 AM 9/20/06 “I would go if lizs did the wet (errr, frozen??) T-shirt snow wrestling.” 8:59:01 AM 9/20/06 “god i love the way you think lizs i truly do.” 9:01:30 AM 9/20/06 “Too soon to tell for me, but just in case anyone needs a stop-off for the night you all are welcome to throw a sleepy bag down in front of the woodstove (Detroit area).” 9:04:16 AM 9/20/06 “Hey, if there's gonna be a slushy t-shirt contest/wrasslin match between Tara and AmyG, then I'm gonna go on the dang trip!” 9:08:18 AM 9/20/06 << back to FYAO in da UP for MLK page
