Friday during the day brought us 1 new inch of a bit of a thick snow. Not a new flake overnight. I checked the 2 hotels in Grayling at the south end this morning and the trailer counts were zero at the Days Inn and 2 at the Ramada. Sled traffic was very slow thru Frederic yesterday but I have seen 6 over at the swamp this morning. Most likely getting breakfast there. They do put out a great breakfast buffet there. So we need more snow and there are predictions for scattered lake effect for most of the upcoming week. I believe next weekend is MLK weekend which is supposed to be a fun weekend of riding. Lets see what happens this week. Eh. Three canadians walked into Sledheads for there annual visit yesterday, they are pictured below in my front room. They could have brought us some canadian snow. They bought a few things and tried to pay me with Looneys eh. Luckily they had 1 credit card between the three of them. Another group of 3 guys pictured on the outside of the shop stopped in. The guy in the middle has the cheapest Dad in the world. About 12 years ago I sold Mr. Cheap my used set of bibs for $15 and to this day he still has them. He would stop in each year to remind me that those bibs are still riding the trails. Its funny how this reminds me of all the characters and people and families that have come thru here in the 28 years or so I have been in here. All with many nick names I have for them. Kids that were little years ago come in with their kids now. I will leave it at that for now so thanks for checking in and if you do get to ride, Please Ride Safely. Pete
