MLK Weekend

We spent part of the weekend with our friends at Brandy Brook. Here we have all of the girls playing a game of Bop it. There are 2 of the triplets and Natalie Wendig along with Laura and Kelly. Some inside activities while we take a break from snowmobiling.
This is what we woke up to after the first night at camp. Snow was heavy with over 2 feet of powder in spots from falling the prior day and all night. This lead to some fun later as we broke open some of the trails after being first for the day.Natalie was brave enough to make a trek around the camp to get some pictures. The snow was pretty deep... Next time, snow pants!
The girls unwinding at camp after a day of riding. The heat feels good after being out all day.
Sadie, the camp dog made the 6 mile snowmobile trip into camp by riding on a dog sled in an enclosed box. She was very happy to be a camp and very well behaved. We didn't have one case of missing food while we were gone for the day!
We woke up to a surprise the next morning when we were getting ready to leave. The clouds cleared and it allowed the temperature to drop to -25 F in the morning. The true test of how well your snowmobile will start. Luckily all of them started and everyone made it to the trucks. Good time by all.
This weekend 1/21-22 we continue to be hit with the late effect snow. About 18 inches from all day Friday to Saturday morning. Here we are cleaning out.
There are 3 snowmobiles in this picture, can you find them?

They found one. Sunday has been an inside day. Temps have been around 9 today so most of our time has been inside. Just a little too cold for too long of a ride with a wind chill around -4. After this weekend, riding conditions should be excellent.
