Ellie Cooks up an Amazing Breakfast at Thor

Makita and I went and spent Friday night up at Thor with Ellie and Dave.  As always they were outstanding hosts and Ellie whipped up an amazing breakfast of hashbrowns, thick sliced bacon, bear sausage (nice and spicy) and farm (or yard rather) fresh eggs from David Jr.'s chickens.

Winter, Winter...GO AWAY!

The snow is this deep.  Makita jumped off the trail and to demonstrate how deep it is.  To top it off it's been below zero at one point during the day for about 90 percent of the last 10 WEEKS.

Bought me some junk...

Last Sunday while on our way back from Minneapolis we went to a large antique store in Buffalo MN.  I picked a milk box, a big bucket and RAY (he's the wagon).  I love this junk.
