What to do in Retirement?

Move to Minocqua and get involved with the community by helping to organize the Wife Carrying, Wife Ferrying and Pike Carrying event.  Thanks John!  Beats board meetings and traffic any day

Wife Carrying

This weekend it was the 2nd Annual Wife Carrying, Wife Ferrying and Pike Carrying contest in Torpy Park to raise money for Winter Park.  It was quite an event to watch!  This is not a picture of Troy and Jenny!

Wife Ferrying

The wife ferrying was even more entertainging.  The sport of Wife Carrying started I heard in Finland and is just catching on in the United States
