  • Family Argo Trip

    I took the family out to our Cabin for the annual summer VA trip, Here are a few clips from the trip in. This trail is not too bad this yr, little bit wet. My middle daughter has decided that it's time for her to try driving it herself. Pretty COOL, now I have a couple little drivers to take me out. She did a great job, if anything, she might be a little too brave at this point
    This is a bit of the trail from between the truck and the "Half Way Creek"


    This is an interesting piece of trail, there are virtually no tracks other than Adair Pro Series tracks visible. It's not exclusive, there are a few places where other machines on different gear come onto the trail from the side, and then promptly leave the trail to one side or the other on different side tracks


    This is a look at the second half of the trail


    I had to leave them all there while I go back to work, but will make another trip out to bring them some fresh groceries and probably some fuel too in a couple weeks.

        What happened to your wife's quad? Not to often do we get to see her enjoy the argo ride....

        By the way...as usual more great vids....

              I have not had a chance to tear it apart, but something is busted in the rear drive system. I might be able to make time to look at it this Fall.
              It's funny that you mention not often seeing her enjoy the Argo ride. She's a quad rider to the bone, hates the Conquests, she gets all shook up and feels nauseous after a long trip, lol. It's not a deal breaker though, I still love her

                    Haaaahaha...........
                    Did I forget to mention that the girls each got new kittens just prior to this trip? They insisted that they were bringing their new toys to the lake....... I counselled against the idea, but Diane was on their side so I knew I'd lost before I even opened my mouth. Turns out that daddy does have some idea of what he's talking about some times

                    I should not laugh, it was a very sad moment, one kitten has moved on to greener pastures full of plump mice and slow birdies. We'll miss her dearly.

                          Hahahahaha, I like the family time too. Didn't like it too much that I was just running them all out to the Cabin, so I could go back to work for 2 weeks. They have been out in the bush alone now for almost 5 days, and I've not heard from them, they have not answered any of my Texts.
                          Looking at it from the bright side........... maybe they are just having too much fun...........
                          (Cell service is "spotty" at best out there, they would have to find a spot where they can get service to get back to me)

                            I know I would be having a ball out there, I'm sure they are too, but you only got a few more days and you'll be right there with them

                              Thanks for sharing. I have not been on for awhile, your kids are growing up fast like mine. Love watching your videos with my kids. We moved from Kodiak Ak to Fairbanks Ak and will be using the argo more here. I was also going to say that was the first time Ive seen your wife in a argo instead of a QUAD. Looks like your girls are amazing drivers told my son I was going to give hime the bigfoot when i get a 8wheeler.
