A little bit of white out there makes it look pretty nice out there. We have had about a half inch of snow overnight and a little ice. Schools were closed pretty much from Clare all the way to the Soo this morning. Still a long ways to go to have rideable snow and still an unfavorable forcast for this coming weekend. I had to drive to Lovells yesterday and was surprised to see the trees all dangling with ice on them as I drove over there. I figured as long as I was in a different neighborhood I took a pic of the store and the bar in Lovells which didn’t look appealing and then after I was back to Frederic I once again hit the brakes with a double take as I drove by the Frederic Inn. There were zero cars there but sitting along side the building was another motorcycle sitting there running. I took a pic and continued down to my storage units to drop off a trailer and the bike was still sitting there running when I came back thru…..At least today I doubt if I will see any bikes out there. I see the darkside boys are south east of Montreal near Cornwall, Quebec making their way to the start of their ride. This morning on the news they reported a big earthquake off Kodiak Island and had issued a tsunami warning to get to higher ground. That gave me a flashback to the time I climbed a tough mountain on the shore on Kodiak. I was definetly on higher ground there but luckily they didn’t get the big one there. It did bring back a good flashback of that trip which is at least a bright spot in this still unridable conditions. Thanks for checking in. Pete
