| We
met in Valders for the trip
up again. The
judge and McIver both got stuck
trying to get
up
the hill to the chef's house.
Uneventful ride up. The next
day started good. The trail
from Baraga
through
L'Anse wasn't real good. From
L'Anse to Ishpeming it was great.
Eddy lost all his brake fluid
so
stopping was a problem for him.
The judge ended up in a small
tree when he missed a corner.
He
developed a hernia trying to
get it out. We made it to Ishpeming
early
so
the "Mexican" game
got a nice early start. After
we were primed we headed for
the
bowling
alley. We played pool and arm
wrestled with the locals. Met
some interesting people.
Somebody
kept letting off stink bombs
in the bowling alley and it
got pretty stinky in there.
Who
would do a thing like that?
After
a nice greasy breakfast the
next morning we were on our
way back. We stopped for awhile
by
a
river and walked over to a pretty
waterfalls. The trails were
great. We got back to Baraga
early
so
we took another loop. Nice trail
through some giant pines.
That
night we went to the bar in
the hotel. The crazy lady we
saw at breakfast in Ishpeming
was
in the bar. She called the police
because she thought she was
being harassed.
While
the bartender was out mediating
the disturbance the mechanic
became
the
bartender for awhile and was
serving drinks. We had a nice
night.
