TGIF: The Aug. 15, 2014 Edition

Tom Shiflet vintage snowmobile cross-country trip.

Tom Shiflet vintage snowmobile cross-country trip.

I’m thankful for the fame and notoriety I received for driving my Chappy snowmobile across the U.S. during the summer (the babes weren’t too bad either).

I’m thankful for the rugged dependability of my Rockwell engine and PolyTrac track.

I’m thankful for the stop I made in Cheyenne, Wyo., to get these sweet cowboy boots.

And I’m thankful it’s Friday, August 15, 2014.

  1. John,

    In looking at this sled and also the TGIF on July 18 and the IFS that are on these sleds, didn’t anyone at that time think about replacing the wheels with ski’s? The IFS looked pretty elaborate for the sleds of that era.

  2. Garth Brooks later went on to write a number one song about this very trip. In it he stated that if he hurried he could still make Cheyenne.
