Yes there is still snow

Yes there is still snow but alot less than yesterday. I saw 7 sleds total on monday, 3 rode into the shop here and one of them was a groomer driver. The other two guys with him were from Atlanta Georgia and they thought it was great…pic of them below. They said they had actually found good snow out there. Forcasts of mixed rain and snow for the next few days. I dont think enough to get excited about, especially the rain part. Hoping for a couple nice storms this month though. The wait is on, gee I have said that before. Also regarding my posts from saturdays accident I do that to make people aware that you can die in the blink of an eye out there. If just one person thinks about what the aftermath looks like or reads about these accidents and it saves them thats what I am hoping for. I have had people say over the years that the display I have out front here is to graphic. I see people out there almost every day all year long showing their friends or kids and hopefully that makes an impact on them. I still have it burned in my mind when I went to the Sheriff department and saw pictures of the 19 year old kid that had died instantly laying dead on the ground next to the sled, his shirt cut wide open while he laid there in the snow. I remember that day like it was yesterday. He started out for a ride from the m 72 parking lot and ten minutes later he was dead. I believe the death count is at about 10 so far this season. So just think about that and the hurt to all the friends and family that have died before you squeeze that throttle. Thanks for checking in and Please Ride Right & Ride Safely. Pete
