O-M-G!!!!
Poppins and I are out of breath from laughing.
About a month ago, YouTube notified us that our YTB channel was part of a program where they would "auto dub" our videos in different languages. We paid no attention to the notification until tonight when we watched our latest video about Jackson, Michigan with the auto-dub set to Italian. While we both have very sultry Italian voices we couldn't help but laugh hysterically at the result. It's like old Kung-Fu movies meet old couple hipster youtube travel channel. 🤣🤣😂😱

If you're looking for a winter adventure in the UP of Michigan. How about a dogsled adventure complete with overnight camping? We visited Nature's Kennel a couple of years ago. Not only did we have a grand adventure with some very cool mushers and guides, but Poppins ended up adopting Hurdle, who retired a couple of months after being on our team.

You can absolutely do this! The team at Nature's Kennel can take the most apprehensive beginner and have them mushing in no time.

Check out our adventure!

Morning travels with "Hurdle" (Poppins' retired sled dog). . .

Me: Cold morning eh Hurdle? My beard is getting frosty.

Hurdle: pfft. . . Let me tell ya bout my workin' dayz in ole Alaska.

Hurdle is like that dog at the cocktail party with so many stories of worldly travel. But at almost 10 years old, she doesn't want to sit back and tell stories. She insists on more adventures, every. . . single. . .minute.

Adventure before dementia!

Flame and Flirt need to spend time hanging out with Hurdle. This is now their preferred winter activity.

The Viking needs a hat to keep warm. 😁
