Easter adventures in Ely!

 On Good Friday, April 15th, we packed up the dog truck to head over and up to Ely for some Easter adventures.

We even brought and used the skis!

It snowed a few inches overnight!
Dolly, you better stay close. The truck is being packed.
You don't want to get left behind!

The roads were snowy in Houghton County.
As soon as we crossed into Ontonagon County, they
were just wet.

After a lunch stop in Ashland, the
next stop was After Hours Trails in Brule!

This is such a nice chalet.

Snow was on the shallow side here,
although other areas were much better.

Now in Ely!

Dolly demanded attention from Grampa
as Wally kept an eye out for squirrels and deer.

We had to show off our tussling tactics.

Everyone went in the basement so the
pressure was on the puppy to follow. Dolly
says, "This is so, so scary."

Doesn't seem to bother Wally none. 
Guess I should be able to go....
Maybe I can leave my rear paws at the top?

Later, we went to Hidden Valley for a romp.
Good thing me and Wally can't read!

We romped on the new bike trail.

We are practicing out "jump" skills here.

Kinda scary for puppies but it's old hat for
older, experienced trail mutts.

There were some thin spots but overall not
bad for snow depth. Although, it was
on the warm and sticky side.

A particularly shallow spot.
And check out the snow stuck to the bottom of her ski.

This is such a nice trail system.
Shame it's not dog friendly.

After that romp, it's nap time.
Next up - more Easter fun, including
Potica making and hiking around Dry Lake.
