   Good to hear that Gror. Down here, if it stays like this much longer, I'll have to start the old lawn mower again. 
   Merry Xmas to everyone.                                                     OT.

How's the ice on Tobin Lake.
Fishing shacks are starting to go out on Athapap.( about 15" of ice ) A little more snow would be nice.

I have 24 inches at my shack, Good clear ice due to lack of snow and -40 weather for 2 weeks.

   Make no wonder the ice roads up north can handle those big loads, according to what you have there now!!

Hay Cranman;
Have'nt seen you out , Did you get your new tracks on or do you have to get Cam to show you how to put them on. LoL
Opened the trail to Brunie on the 25th, only had to cut 3 trees this year, Man its rough.

Gettin old Darrell ....gettin old.!!! Going over all my bearings and running gear today and put 2 new tires and tubes on the back while the tracks were off. Found out I had heavy axles on the back which is good, but when you just did them 5 years ago and didn't remember that....well that isn't good. Might get the tracks back on tonight yet. Gotta get the rag out. I'm running out of wood for the boiler. Heard you were dragging. We all appreciate that. See yaa out there....
