It is called a village and the days are getting longer now that summer is coming but during the winter we hardly ever see the sun. it was only -5 below yesterday when we were out running. The name of the village I live in is Kotzebue... Yep in the winter the sun doesn't rise just moves across the horizon and then get's dark again... We should be taking more pictures but this time with our HPI Savages..

Well, at least not very often. But you can always hop on the beeline and shoot up to the Mogollon Rim in the winter time for some snow action! Looking at the Payson webcam, looks like the rim just got a bunch of snow!

Man you guys have it so warm i play with my savy outside all time in the snow. Right now its about -13 fahrenheit the engine takes awhile to warm up indoors then i go outside and play we have snow for a long time here in south Saskatchewan so you get use to running nitros in the cold and tuning em is a pain but the fun is worth it.

It was cold out yesterday and parts were breaking but that didn't stop us. We all share our ext ra parts when we need too. I agree with the tuning my savage x F4.1 doesn't want to go...

LOL, yeah, I'm about 15 miles south of East Mesa (US 60/Ellsworth) but only 'til mid to end of April... we're probably moving to Chandler/Gilbert/Mesa area...
