Kalamazoo here. No snowmachines, went thru that in my younger days. Hate the cold, and riding in the open air at 60MPH when it's 30 below doesn't exactly excite me anymore.

I do portable welding, a little logging and run my horse boarding operation.

For fun, I ... uh .... hmmm, what's 'fun'? Oh yeah, I remember! For FUN, I torture these guys here on this site with my high cetane coffee and my fresh live donuts!

I live in Grand Rapids half the time and go to school in Flint the other half. I spend most of my free time day-dreaming about mods for my truck.

I live in Alma right now. Don't have a sled. Love to work on diesel, both truck and tractor. I love to hunt, fish, and anything else outside when I can.

I have been busy almost all summer with training and moved at the end of Oct. Still trying to get settled in.

I am up for another dinner. Do we want to go to the same place or try something new?

I'd go back. Since you're in Alma now, you could head it up and try a poll? Otherwise, I have a buddy that started his retirement job cutting the prime rib at the little creek casino. He says it's a pretty nice buffet on the weekends with huge crab legs for $18.99 all you can eat!
