And He's Off!

 After what seems like 2 months of planning and 1 month of packing (it probably wasn't all that long!) Glenn has headed to South Dakota to go ice fishing with Neal and granddaughter Maggie!  I'm sure he looked pretty huge driving down the highway pulling his trailer loaded with the ice shack and the razor!!  I decided I better go check it out and take some pics before he took off!


The back is really cute with his sign on the door and an old fishing pole attached!


The inside is all insulated and he has all kinds of hooks and shelves to use!  The black round thing on the floor is one of the holes to fish out of - another is in the corner of the picture!


There are 2 beds and both can be lifted up to make room while you're fishing!  Maggie is planning on sleeping on one of the beds as Neal is sleeping on the ice in just a regular hut - BRRRRRRR!


Glenn has a small heater in there and it doesn't have to be on very long to get warm in there!!  He also has a carbon monoxide unit so he can safely sleep!

He will travel to NE and spend the night somewhere along the road - hopefully a rest area - and continue on to SD tomorrow!  I know they'll have a great time!!  Snow is in the forecast for Friday and the lows have been WAY below zero so at least the ice is plenty safe!

Doesn't this make you want to go ice fishing?       I'll pass - thank you!
