Fun weekend!

On the way up ... 6 sleds ... 6 couples
Yours truly and her dear husband. Without him, there is a very good chance I'd never go up this mountain! He did rescue me once on Saturday ... picked me up from the pine tree restroom ... and dumped me once!
On the top of the ridge. Am quite positive I'll never see this in the summertime!
Mark Huhta playing ... what a backdrop!
Looking out at the Cook Inlet.
A man + a mountain + good snow + a sled = grins galore!
A new thing for me this weekend ... went out snowmachining with 5 other couples on Saturday. What a fun time. The weather was absolutely glorious! Just sharing a few pictures with you. We live about 3 miles out of Palmer. So, the 3 miles back to Palmer, about 13 miles out of Palmer to Sutton (not quite to Kuoppala Rd) and up the road a little bit. Climb on machines and head up some hills ... and on to a beautiful place to play!
Glad my dear hubby enjoyed his day. At midnight he flew to Florida to help move Martta's things back to Arizona. It is warm and humid in Florida this morning (what we considered cool several years ago), he & Juha were leaving Fort Worth this morning in a U-Haul to begin the 2600 mile putt-putt trip back to Prescott. We have 7 degrees here this morning ... and I'm already missing his fire building skills. :( (I'd rather blog and bebo at this hour than build a fire.)
Yesterday we had a wedding reception for Kevin & Renae. Was really nice and turned out well. No pictures, sorry. My camera is in Florida. I gave it up for a week. Note the "MY" camera. I think I took it over.
Have a great week all! 'Tis Monday, kids really enjoyed spring break, and next weekend promises to be another busy one!

I was just thinking last night....did I leave Kevin and Renae's gift at your house?? I can't find it anywhere, and come to think of it, I don't think I remember unpacking it. Don't know where it could be! Have you found it? looks like you had great fun on Saturday...JEALOUS!!

As soon as I wrap up a few things down here I am loading the var and headin there.

You did leave the gift here, Jenny. Still sitting on the piano in the cute pink bag. :) What should I do with it?

Cabin is empty when you get that van loaded. I'll even give you a bucket for toilet flushing. Might have to fill it yourself. I didn't get my rope pull made to lug the bucket back and forth. But, spring will be here soon and the lines will thaw. Might be a bit rank by then, but the shower will feel really good once you can use it!
