The lake was not stirring
No boats and no wakes

The boys dragged the bobbies to the shore on their sleds,
While thoughts of warm weather filled them with dread;

The Babes on their Sleds and Forum Flyers in their caps
Had just settled in for a nip (not a nap!)

Default .............oh!

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a two-up snowmobile!


Crossing the snowy trails, going down to the frozen lake, and then buzzing for miles across that huge shining white frozen lake.

Winter is finally here! Sure, it got off to a bit of a slow start, oh what fun it is to play with a new ice auger zipping through 18" of ice......oh jingle bells...jingle bells....what a terrific year for a new snowmobile......lots of snow & ice....!

Oopsie-doopsie-.....hey, this weather can never last.....so everyone just get out and enjoy it.....soon the temps will drop to the deep-freeze, and then everything with winter will be right again......oh jingle bells.....jingle bells....

Default Santa's Message ( poem )

I'm writing this note to inform you,
that tax's have taken away the things I value most highly,
my reindeer, my workshop, my sleigh.
So I am making my rounds on a donkey this year,
He's aged,crippled,and slow.
So you know if I'm not there by christmass,
I'm out on my ass in the snow.


Love Santa,


(Author Unknown)


Santa must own lakefront property.

I heard him exclaim with a snort and a sneeze
The Babes did the dance
The lake will soon freeze

Winter will come, The snow will fall
The sledders will ride, come one come all!

As fast as can be
Trying his best
To avoid the M.P.

But as he rounded the corner
And into Braun Bay
A blue light came on
and he heard someone say

"Pull over old Man"
Whoever knew
that evan sleighs are effected

But Skip would tell us
That can't be right;
It's gotta be watercraft,
Not something in flight!
So Santa, there is no worry nor fear,
It's defined in these RSA's written right here.
