Snowcat

I am a Midwestern girl, from growing up in Wisconsin to moving to the land of 10,000 lakes for college; the Midwest is so much of who I am. One of the things that most Minnesotans and Wisconsinites do is snowmobile. Somehow I have managed to go 30+ years without sitting my behind on one.

That changed yesterday. I went on a vintage snowmobile (3 sleds from the 1970′s that have been restored) ride. Scott, his dad, a friend and myself. We headed out to drive around on a chain of lakes. Since this winter has had a teeny tiny amount of snow, we went to drastic measures to drive these snowmobiles.

At least the lakes has a few inches of snow and we could drive around for a few hours. A stop for beer and bloody marys and an afternoon spent driven around the lakes. I was bundled up as I possibly could be and even got turn at driving.

I can’t wait for more snow to take these out on an actual trail!
