It was a blistery winter afternoon (0 degrees, not 1 or even -1, straight up 0) in the northwoods, the perfact weather for the ulitamte snow slinging race. I could see the blush of adrenaline begin to rush in FB's (Farm Boy's) faces (or maybe that was the sting of frost bite setting in?). At any rate these FB's were ready to prove their northern man hood, by gearing up and striving to win the prestigious award that is handed out each year. Now this just isn't any Podunk plastic trophy, NO, NO; This is the big kahuna of all honors. This award is the; In your face, I am now snowmobiling king for a whole year and I will remind you of that for the next 364 until we race again Award. They take this very seriously.
Even this youthful whipper-snapper was in on the action....Remember Daring Doug? He is grooming this young lad to be the best in Snow Flinging business. The next "up and coming protege", if you will. Just remember you heard it hear first.
Dreaming of Warm Sunny Beaches,
Farming Fabulously
Video of the race will be posted this afternoon. Right now I have to put on my snowshoes and hike 5 miles up hills both ways, through two feet of snow to get some parsnips from the grocery store. When I return I will post.
