Great Weather!!
2:43 PM
This post is for Mary. She is our neighbor and she emailed me to let me know it has been a few weeks since my last post. I need an occasional push to get this done. So thanks Mary.
The weather has been great as of late. It gets up to 30 degrees during the day and then drops back down to 0 plus or minus a few degrees at night. With that type of temperatures the snow stays firm and you can ski, snowshoe or snowmobile anywhere. The top picture is me with my sister Dawn (far left) and daughter-in-law Janelle overlooking Gunflint Lake. It was a beautiful day with a lot of sunshine. The lower picture is of our granddaughter Hannah. She looks a little like a bobble head doll with her dad's helmet on. Everyone got out and enjoyed the day.
Just a couple of reminders -- Ham Lake Half Marathon is May 2nd and the Gunflint Green Up weekend is May 7 and 8. Check out their web sites. We have had a great time the past few years at both events. No we don't run the race but we do volunteer and the Green Up weekend is always fun. It looks like we will be helping serve the food this year so we get a chance to talk to all of the people.
One more reminder--it is time to check your summer vacation dates. Check out our web site to see what dates are available and if you want you can even make your reservation right online. It is easy and quick.
