Does this look like dogsledding weather????!!!!!!!!
















From the pictures of Randy sitting out in front of the sugar shack reading his book with the door open and how much snow we have lost you can see that Spring has come to Quebec!!!

The race is still on so we will stay the weekend and leave Monday.
Trained yesterday and have made the final pick for the teams this weekend. The race start is at a Indian (they call them First Nation people in Canada) museum just outside of Quebec City and I am really looking forward to it!!!! It is supposed to be on a bike path and snowmobile trail and though it normally would be fast (flat and hard) it may be a little soft due to the weather forecast of above freezing.

Went to Melanie's house (she lives about 2 blocks from her parents in a very typical "Quebec house" with the curved roof and gabled windows in front) for dinner last nite and had good conversation with Patrick and Mel!! (Claude and Renelle went to have dinner with the priest who is trying to talk them into making a trip to Rome with him).

Today change the bedding in some boxes (some of the girls think they have toilette facilities in their boxes) and maybe some cleaning of the sugar shack as we will leave for the race tomorrow afternoon and will only stop briefly to pick up the snowmobile and trailer on the way back.
