On February 25-27, Dave and I finally made the snowmobile trip we've been talking about for 3 years.  We drove from Bradford Point in St. Germain up to Copper Harbor in the Michigan UP.  Total mileage over 3 days was about 500.  It was a great trip.

This is the motel in Twin Falls that Mark stayed in the week before...

What he didn't tell us is that it wasn't finished. I'm not even sure he had walls in his room.
