What a day on the lake yesterday! Got some logs up into the woods.


And then the lake looked so good.


So we took a ride.


My buddy Dave...and my other buddy Dave.

Does anyone have any pics of Iditarod? It would be so interesting to tour the ghost town. I love the pics of the old mines I've seen here also, fascinating history

Such a beautiful place Rance. I think I would make that my permanent home and forget about Sterling. Does Hannah like the cabin?

She loves the lake. The cabin isn't built yet and she wants to help. Trust me...I wish she was here just to ride on the lake.

Because it's a Skidoo and it's a workhorse of a machine. Wide track. Rance's machine is a late 80's or early 90s and the XLT is a mid 90's model. The Skidoo was build in this century.
