I technically share two cars.  But that's not an option so I picked the first one.

Holy crap, Red.  Both for the length but also the stories. 

Thank you to your grandfather for the leadership and service he provided during his years.

Really funny bear... Like this one: @Bear ?

So a few of you may know that I take an annual trip up north (as if Minneapolis wasn't far enough north) to find some snow and ice. This year, we left home early Friday morning and were on the trail by early afternoon. 

A large snowstorm had hit the area just under a week before. When we got there, we found a packed trail, indicating sometime had been on the before us. It would be a fairly easy hike, only using spikes. After about a half mile, we found the tracks stopped. The prior adventures had turned around. So did we. But only to get snowshoes. Armed with the right gear, we moved quick over the packed section but slowed when we hit 2 feet of powdery snow and steep climbs to our overlook. The hike lasted longer than we expected, but it meant we were at the peak for sunset. And mother nature didn't disappoint.

We hauled ass to get back to the car before it got too dark. It was a great start to the annual trip.

Share your best!  Give us the story behind it.  

Limit, 1 photo per post.  No double posting within the same day.

Double posting = posting two times in this thread without someone else posting in the middle.  

Translating the above rule: 

You can post as many times in this thread with a photo per day, as long as someone else posts after you.  

If no one posts after you, you can double post as long as it is the next day.  

Taken last year near Carlton Peak in Northern Minnesota.  Snow had just started flying and continued through that afternoon/night.  We were at the top of Carlton Peak when it started snowing, near white out by the time we got down.  Taken about the same time as my picture in the RL Picture Thread.

I was never younger.  Always been old.  

I missed this one because there were too many poll threads...  

I have a paid Pandora account and have been for a long time.  Decade maybe?  

I'm debating upgrading to a family Pandora plan or jumping over to Spotify.  I can get on-demand music then but also can get my wife onto a paid account so we don't have to listen to ads when she's playing music...  Any advice??  

I lurk on Facebook.  

I mostly ignore Twitter.

I have a few folks I communicate with on WhatsApp.

I have an inactive Instagram account.

I have a YouTube account by extension of having a Gmail account mostly. 

I have a LinkedIn account that I use for mostly professional things.

I have a Google+ account by extension of having a Gmail account.  RIP G+.

I don't have Pinterest, Tumblr, or Quora, or Snapchat for that matter.  

Wanted to vote for all of them because I could.  

Was lazy.  Only voted for the first one.  Happened to be my primary mode of transport.

I voted for all of them because I could. 

Does that make me a role player?
