"505Turbeaux" (505turbeaux)
01/09/2015 at 09:06 • Filed to: oppo meetup | 5 | 45 |
tomorrow I will be renting out a smelt shack and packing it with whiskey, beer, firewood and some bait to go get my ice fishing game in full effect. Looks like your boy CalzoneGolem will be there, and I invite anyone with a Saturday to burn to come up and partake in this Maine tradition with me. Comment if you are interested. You make the effort to come up, and I will take care of the rental, bait, and the beer unless you dont drink shit beer like I do when fishing. Possible overnight accommodations in Portland as well if needed.
and no that ain't coffee in my mug...

Only 1700 miles to get there. Very tempting...

I'm not commenting if interested, I'm commenting if jelly. It's right at a 15 hour drive, and I just know the Benz would choose such a time to have the slightly noisy front wheel bearing explode, or burn the glow control relay, or make much worse the fuel leak.
I need to stop driving cars with 400k miles, really.

Aww yeah. Maybe I'll make a chili on your tiny stove. Do we need wood?

ahh, I would so come and hang out if I wasn't way in another state. This is the best kind of oppo meetup. I would totally bring snacks and more beer.

nope, all stocked up as part of the shack rental, and if you want to make chili, rock on. I will also have a smoky treat with us

I'll tell you what, I need to do it some time when I have more than just a weekend and when I have a more plausible excuse. "Help CalzoneGolem set up Megasquirt on the Rat-L-Trap" would be a good one.

If only I didn't live in Virginia! If you ever come ice fishing closer to the DC area, let me know.

I'll tell YOU what, I was talking to CannoliGremlin yesterday about this. I need to go up to my girls dads properties and catalog/photo a ton of cars and parts for his will. As seen in http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/torchbug-goes-… and http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/another-weeken… and other posts. I bet you would be a perfect fit for that mission, and you would have all of the lobsters, pork, eggs and beer you can handle. I could likely take care of your fuel to get up here too. I would love to have you poke around the Invicta while we are up there too. So I guess we should connect off oppo at some point, email or whatever, I think you said you dont have facebook, right?

I allegedly have facebook. Allegedly. By that I mean I log in about once every 6-9 months if I'm lucky. My email is derp with underscores to confuse robots and no "mailto". Definitely ought to hang out with both you and CrabcakeGoblin at some point.
Edit: damnit Kinja and/or Firefox, stop being clever and inserting "mailto"s. Maybe I *want* my html malformed and ugly.

Once in a great long while, it does. It certainly did in 2010!

that one is, no idea what the stoves at the place we are going tomorrow look like though. Even if it is a top load it is easy enough to move the pot

I'm not sure that's in the cards for awhile. How about "Help CalzoneGolem grind rust off Rat-L-Trap?"

Mutating his name is like a delicious bag of pretzel bits. Once opened, you just have to keep going before it gets stale. Even after.

Hopefully next time the scheduling will work better. I'm not much for fishing or drinking. But hanging out & BSing sounds good to me.

16 hours and over 1,000 miles worth of driving. Not bad I guess. I don't drink cheap beer but I would bring my own liquor anyway. Also, I'm not much of a fisherman. More of a social drinker.

sounds awesome, but I've got plans to catch a Pats game.
We definitely need to plan ahead and do a NE meetup when it thaws out too
