Friday morning we woke up to some new snow on the ground and colder temps so Elaine & I went out to work on the trails we had been making. We got some new snow over night and just wanted to try to smooth it out since it was frozen and set up better. We even went up to the Bowling alley & did some dragging from there to try to keep as much open as possible, just in case we do get more snow. It's so much easier to do it as it arrives instead of letting it get ahead of you, then it can become somewhat of a problem, besides we like to get out in it and play & enjoy the beauty. We finally had to quit when it got too warm and we were making more of a mess than we wanted to and it was time to eat.
Friday afternoon I heard snowmobiles at the gate and went out to see who it was and saw 3 sleds heading down the road so I went back inside and a little bit later some friends Alan & Shauna showed up at the door, and it was great to see them again, they were part of the group that helped me to get home after Thanksgiving by breaking trail. They had come up for the weekend and were out for a ride with other friends so they came by, a very pleasant surprise, and we had a great visit.
Saturday morning we woke up to near whiteout conditions and about 1' of new powder on the ground so we decided to just stay inside and watch it snow, around 12:30 there was a shout and knock on the house and Jim & Art, friends I met last year were out for a ride making first tracks and enjoying the powder and came out to visit before meeting other friends back out at the Chiwawa river bridge for a fire get together. It was great to see them again and they are also parents of some of the kids, Justin, Ashley & Ryan that also helped me get home Thanksgiving and another time when I was going out to see Elaine and broke down at Chikamin Flats and was walking out to the garage a nice 10 mile walk but was very grateful for the ride out. It is always a pleasure to see friends and I will be forever grateful for all of their help and friendship.
We found our Paradise and so have some of our friends, hope you find yours too.
