Snowmobile Information:
We had about 3-4 inches of snow the last couple of days. Still slow and we would need a good foot to charge up the system. The cool thing is, it has been cold. Lakes are firming up. I saw a truck out on Minoqua Lake yesterday. Our John Deere is still down. Keith, Nick, and John tore the front end off of it today. A lot of talk about splines and clutch packs in the front end. I was the designated wrench passer.I took a break, and went down to the storage unit to hack the ice banks down in front of the doors, where we store our Kubota and drag, and two great kids named Cristin, and Justin, showed up. I figured Keith sent them to help me. I was surprised they did not have shovels, but I handed them tools, and they whacked that icey snowbank like Grant took Richmond. When we were done, I told them I wish I had a key for the unit, I would show them the Kubota. They said, “How will you get the snowmobile out?” I said, ” What snowmobile?” Here they were there to meet a guy to buy a snowmobile for Justin’s dad to ice fish with. So, my wife said, like Tom Sawyer getting his fence painted, you cheesed those kids into doing your digging out. Love the north woods, and what a country! Mark
