HUNGER RIDIN' IN THE SNOW........
Yes, this really is snow in the picture. And a great day it was for a post-ride nap in a small pasture of snow up here at the Timberline Lodge. Would I rather have 95 degrees and the sweltering heat of Memphis, or low 40's and a little snow at the Timberline Lodge? Hmmmm, I'll stay true to my Badger roots and take the snow I think.
The T-Lodge is a pretty cool hangout. Huge place. There's large, wood beams holding up this joint, and three spacious lobby areas with a nice, large, cosey fireplace. Although, I'm hoping that I won't have any nightmares tonight of "Red Rum" as they did film "The Shining" here back in the day.

SHOUT OUTS....
-Dad and Mom for putting up with my crabby, cranky, and at times incredibly ornery self. I'll admit that after being on the road this long, I'm not one for conversation much of the time. Nice job, guys. You guys do a stellar job with the support vehicle as well.
