Well, it has been a busy couple weeks, actually just got a couple down days and decided to update the blog, while it was calm.
A little over a week ago, we did completed our 1st 2 day excursion for 100 miles, what a run it was. The first day out we got a late start, had to bootee the dogs which slowed up down because the warm up had turn the surface to ice, but it had and was snowing - The wet sticky stuff! Made for a slow run for th dogs, and boy did they have to work hard. I actually started to feel bad for them on the biggest hill going into the Trio pond area, nearly 3 miles of climbing it that crap!
We actually made fair time, the dogs actually did well given the conditions, at least I was impressed! Ron and I sat up after we cooked dinner and put the guests down for the night talked about stuff and had a couple drinks together. The next morning Ron insisted on breakfast on his outdoor stove, its not working right, but he made due and the omelet in a bag was actually pretty good, better than an MRE - Yes I have eaten my share!
The ride back was allot quicker, but on a Sat the snowmobile traffic was heavier, not what I thought it would be but heavier. Thank god for it not being to heavy though, I was getting stressed out leading the way with the snowmobile and nobody listening to me, Ron knew it before he asked how it was going - Maybe it was on my face!
Anyway, we got back safe & sound and the clients loved it, it fact a special Thank You note arrived in todays mail, Margaret made note knowing that allot of behind the scenes work went into their trip - Once again I have to say I love doing this! That IS what it's all about!
I am starting to think about spring & summer packages now, yeah I have to do that BEFORE the season arrives. Does anyone have a thought about doing a "The Lodge is yours" package, just wondering?
