Chesley Lake-up north

Isnt it funny when we say up north we think of warm weather? Well i Do only for canadians in winter it means colder and snowier :) and Thats what we got.
We are in the cutest cottage on a lake covered in 1 foot of snow. Surrounding us is about 1 foot and a half of snow and most of the roads in this area aren't plowed so we literally trudge around (onomatopeia for ya there). On arriving we immediately sent aaron and jared to shovel the path for us.
I went for a walk and it was amazing to view God's beautiful creation under a layer of snow. Got some good photos..with the help of self timer because dan was reading and lissa was enjoying the warmth of the cottage considering shes sick.
 Jared and Aaron went snowboarding.
Mr Wieske put me on the snow mobile
Snow mobiling is AMAZING. Undescribable to those who havn't done it. its like a cross between a motor bike, quad, jet ski etc and hoofing it through the snow makes it feel like your flying. Only colder.
Unfortunately for me and lissa we got bogged after been thrown into a snow bank (great adventure) but we dug our way out. In the dark. And the only one who was worried was Mama-Dawg namely Dani :)
After an amazing dinner of lasagne made by our brilliant cook Mrs Wieske we all headed to the hot tub. Ever been in one with snow surrounding you and the water in your hair freezing but your roasting in a 104 deg F tub. Its a good feeling. Made even better when me and dan and kate jumped out into the snow froze n then back into the tub. Good relaxing time before bed.
We all slept in this morning but then headed out for an afternoon of snow mobiling. We decided to stick to the lake today. Boys were reaching speedsof 130km and 90 miles but iwas impressed with my average of 100km and 70 miles haha. its a scary feeling and its hard to steer especially with the soft snow but God kept all of us safe.
We ran out of fuel and went through one melted driving belt but the day was worth it. Only my last ride i got snow down my pants and back so currently sitting in front of the fire before a dinner of croquettes nachos and crackers and cheese and everything else we have left over...

till later
