GRANITE PEAK TRIP ADVENTURES Twenty-one ULLRs had a fabulous trip to Granite Peak in Wausau, WI on February 3-5. We
welcomed Jill Steeves and Rose Grengs as new members of our Club, and
they were both outstanding additions to our trip. Several
ULLRs arrived early on Tuesday to downhill ski, snowshoe, and
cross-country ski. The conditions were great, and everyone did
the same on Wednesday. The warmth and jets of the hotel hot tub
felt good after our exercise on the trails and slopes. Tuesday
evening we had the usual pizza party along with salad, chips and salsa,
and brownies while we were socializing and playing Farkel. There
was a terrific variety of food for the continental breakfasts in the
party room at Stoney Creek Inn. The Great Dane Restaurant in
downtown Wausau provided us all delicious dinners on Wednesday evening,
after which some of us played “Spite & Malice” (card game) and more
dice games. Thursday it was a little nippy –
about 18 below wind chill. Several hearty souls did downhill ski
and cross-country ski, and many went to the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art
Museum where we enjoyed 50 of the greatest photographs from National
Geographic, Whistler etchings, and the Museum’s collection of bird art.
We had a wonderful three days of camaraderie – there is nothing like being with great ULLRs! Diane Erlandson |
