Training and getting ready for "La Baie"


Last weekend we got the sled we had ordered way back in January- isn't it cute??!!! and won't our 4 grandkids look cute driving it???!!!!

Tuesday trained my team and some others to see if they are recovered enough to race this weekend. It was quite warm and sunny. Wednesday trained all of Randy's dogs and the weather was horrible!!! About 30 degrees and raining!!!! miserable - even with rain coats on we were soaked by the end of the 11 miles!!! Went out to dinner for pizza. Today we are getting ready to leave early tomorrow morning so I want to have most things packed and we cut toe nails and watered and extra time since they missed a breakfast this last week. Tonight we go for a "rematch" of the bowling!!!! I think both Claude and Melanie are looking to "give me a run for my money" !!!

We are taking the flatter route up thru La Tuque to La Baie and it is supposedly very scenic - and very important.........- I printed a map from the web to get us there!!!!! It is supposed to be a 4 hour trip but it will probably take us 6!!!!!

aeja loves you and misses you.

She typed it herself!!! Ocean asks when are we going to see grandma and grandpa. They liked the sled. We are looking at ponies slowly but Jesse is waiting to talk to you guys first I guess. Oak is almost rolling over and will be 5 months old next week.

We can't wait to see you. We are going to Boise for a visit from March 24-April 3. Hopefully we will be able to see you before we go...if you are back that is.
