Day 1... travel

Ok, so we are in Eagle River, Wisconsin. It took all morning to get here, but it was a fun experience so far.
We left Seattle @ 12:50 a.m. Thursday morning, got to Minneapolis around 5:50 a.m. ( C.S.T.) roughly a 4 hour flight. It was 18 degrees when we landed. Since we had about 3 hours til our connecting flight to Rhinelander, Wis. We had breakfast & wandered around. Minneapolis has a pretty big airport.
Once our twin prop plane that sits 40 arrived, we had a 40 min. flight to Rhinelander. Our gear made it all in once piece & we managed to fit 5 guys, bags, sticks & luggage in a Dodge Durango ( not recommened ). It took another 30 minute drive north to reach Eagle River. It was about 12 degrees, some snow showers & about 3-5 feet of snow. We are staying at a wonderful cabin resort, Eagle Waters Resort.
We also got to see the set up for the pond hockey, as well as practice in a private facility ( took a little bribing ). Its been a busy day, not much rest for the weary as we start play @ 11:45 a.m. tomorrow. I will update tomorrow night. Our only internet access is down in the main office so I will try to keep up with my posts. GO MONKEYS!!
