Years ago a local bar where I grew up had a guest book for all snowmobilers to sign. It was a little contest in the area to see who could be the first one there on a sled every year. I don't remember what the day or year was, but I remember coming home from church one Suday at noon and my dad and I saying there was enough snow on the "government trail" (road) to go sign the book. It was only a little over a mile from home to this little bar. My dad and I left home about the same time, but I beat him there, not before sliding into the stop sign on the corner in front of the bar. I think that was the only year that I was first to sign the guest book. The last year that they were in business, before they retired, I made sure to be the last to sign the book. The conditions were terrible and the ice went out on the river I had to cross the next day.
The next people to own the bar were anti-sledders and it was never the same, and they were only in business a short time because of it.
These are good old memories.
Just wondering if anyone has a little something like this in your neighborhood.
