back in the swing of things

So growing up, snowmobiling was a huge part of life.  My dad and uncle bought new sleds in the late 80's and I started going with full-time (almost every weekend from Christmas through mid-April) in the winter of 1992.  Each weekend seemed to surpass the last, and it was the best thing my dad and I shared.  For close to fifteen years snowmobiling dominated my winters, yet the amount of trips started to dwindle as the younger generation of guys went to college, got married, had kids & jobs, etc.  Well, the last two years have seen a resurgence among out group of riders. First, Garry (my cousin) went out bought a brand new 2008 Ski Doo MXZ Adrenaline 600 last year, and then Jamie followed suit with a 2002 Polaris 600 EDGE XC.  This spring, myself, my dad, and Steve all caved to the peer pressure and also got some new rides (can be seen on the Sleds & Gear page).  So starting next winter we will rededicate ourselves to the sport that has fashioned some of the best memories in our family.

    I'm just a guy who loves to hike, fish, hunt, camp, and snowmobile, preferably with my wife Brooke and our three kids, Hunter, Max & Shea. I play the part of a lawyer during the week and try to get outside and get dirty on the weekends.
