It warmed up...

We did see some 40s over the past couple days.  However, it never rained.  There is still PLENTY of snow!  I will probably hits the trails around the house today to see what kind of shape they are in.  According to HSSC the trails have a decent base, and as long as it got cold enough last night, they groomed overnight.  No news on their website yet.

From the looks of it, our winter has been spared once again!  We are under a winter weather advisory right now.  Possibly 2 to 4 inches tonight.  That sucks since I have to work tomorrow and will not get to enjoy it.  Of course after this snow it looks to turn warm and start raining again for the first part of the week.  Doh!  The good news is as we roll into the weekend it should cool off again.  This is our roller coaster season here in Northern Michigan!

Until I ride a bit I have nothing much to talk about.  I did get the four wheeler out yesterday and did a few donuts on the ice...but the battery died and I put it away. :P  The battery has been a thorn in my side since the day we brought it home.  The machine sat in a shed for a year and a half until we picked it up...so the battery kicked over.  Once we get a new one though...the chains go on and I hit the woods! :D  In a sense I am getting excited for spring.  I like the smell of the woods, the sound of the animals, and the fresh foliage starting to pop out.   PLUS, spring brings my ability to get outside for walks. ;)  This has been a COLD winter...so I have not done much outside.  No hiking, walking, skiing, snowshoeing...I have been incredibly lazy.  I will give you an example of how bad it is.  :P  We have been looking at new homes lately...Wednesday we had to walk down an unplowed driveway.  Maybe just shy of a couple hundred yards.  Half way down the driveway...my stupid leg started to get a charlie horse!  In less than a foot of snow!  How pathetic!  *laugh*  Hopefully that will change soon. :P

Enough for now...
