3 degrees this morning and a clear sky. Picked up about 4 inches of snow on my deck yesterday but some other places around town got closer to 6. Here`s how things went yesterday out at da barn…..

First let me give a HUGE shout out to all that helped….it was quite a day! I was out there along with Groomers Mike,Gerald, Dave M.,Kevin,Larry and a guy who is UP for the week to ride but decided to help us instead, Jeff Regan. THANKS TO ALL!!!! Gerald even took the day off work!!!

We got the machine with the bad cooling fan fixed. The other machine with the major failure is 75% back together. We all put in about 10 hours away from our jobs and businesses. Gerald is going back out there this morning to finish `er up, yes, he`s taken another day off from work!! I`m sure someone else is going out to help him but I don`t know who. So thats enough with the broke down groomer report…..on to the trails which this is supposed to be…..

Groomer Dave M. is runnin the South trail #8 this morning.

Groomer Scott is heading to the Falls this afternoon.

Remember we have just 2 machines running at this time. By later this afternoon we`ll have the other one up and runnin and we`ll have to test her out first before we can send it out. We`ll be running a full schedule by tomorrow.

All I got fer today. I gotta get busy around here!

Minus 4 degrees this morning and partly cloudy. No new snow last night either. Our dark cloud resumes, we just can`t believe it, read on…..

Groomer Kevin was out on the Point Trails yesterday and we got the dreaded call……his machine is running but won`t move and he lost all hydraulics. This has happened before on this machine and we knew what it was. I`m not gonna get into the details but we have to tear down the whole machine to fix it, but we`ve been there and done that and we`re good at it!!! I think some of the guys got into it last night and we got a crew to go out this morning. It will take ALL day.

On the other machine with the broken cooling fan, we overnighted the parts so hopefully they will be in this morning. This will only be a couple hours…..and we`ve done this before too.

I know this is supposed to be a trail report but DOG GONE IT!!!!!!! We all are totally frustrated and gettin tired. With any luck we`ll have all three machines back on the trails by tomorrow.

Bout all I have to say for today….sorry…..I am not a happy camper.
