FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 1/15
How Come? How come everything south and east of Michigan is getting blasted with a nice winter storm and in Frederic we have only a few measly inches of snow on the ground. Its sunny and 2 degrees this saturday morning at ten a.m. in beautiful downtown Frederic. Things have been so slow I decided to take a peak at the two big motels on the business loop in Grayling this morning, Days Inn had 1 trailer and the Ramada had ten trailers which is more than I figured they would have there. The one pic below here I took at the Ramada and thats not they way a trip to go riding should start out. That doesnt look fun for that guy. Sled traffic was slow around town here yesterday as I expect it will be again today. Blah, Blah, Blah….as before. Thanks for checking in. Pete
