A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall A fun day with Papa

Today we took Nolan to his 1st snowmobile event..grass drags.

As soon as we got out of the car he herd them and his little eyes were wide as nickles looking for them.

He always has to go see mine when he's over so when he 1st seen these today he was all boy racer lol .

I hope to have him a little one for next yr , would love to get him into the sport racing someday.





Here's a vid of them and Nolan on grandmas lap eating a hotdog

How adorable he is, Snow! I bet he was one worn out little fella when you were through for the day. How sweet!

such a cutie pie

Wow, I haven't been to one of those in years..as the machines got newer and more expensive..they were less willing to wear out their lags Although they still water race in a farmers field in spring with their old machines.

Great pics..nothing puts a bigger smile on a baby boy and big boys face then the sound of a motor running. Your making some great memories with your grand son

I need to find some older one's to play in the water and grass. Your right about the newer one's ..10k new!. I won't use my snow sled for summer stuff just for that reason. The trips we do are to dependent on a tip top machine , we will ride 100-200 miles a day ...40 50 miles of nothing but woods between towns we visit.
Grass dragging and water skipping is hard on the hardware of a machine. I sure wouldn't want to spend a night out in the bush on a -5 below night due to a breakdown from goofing off in the summer with it.

But we have played in some water from time to time when out ...sometimes you have no choice if you need to cross a river or two when out boondocking.

Here's another clip...he had a fun day...and so did papa

...listen close at the end .... he did that for about the 1st 15 races...so cute.

Good gosh, we had a new Polaris Edge X and one year I took it out on the trails and of course wasn't driving it fast enough so it over heated(liquid cooled)..left me stranded on a snow mobile trail in the pitch dark at 11 pm at night...took me 20 minutes to get it going...

Never went out by myself at night with it again.

Off to watch your video..

Yep you need to move enough to throw the snow up in the tunnel for cooling , when you play in the deep stuff you dont need to worry about it

I never go out alone , too much can happen...in a hurry too.
I go out here around the house alone but that's it .... funny thing is that's when I did have a boo boo with mine ...could even see the house

This is what I want to get him to start.
