Darn Good Husbands in Ashland







From Minneapolis we traveled into northern Wisconsin to Ashland, along the beautiful shores of Lake Superior. We were not only in awe of the natural beauty of the area and the quaint brick buildings that make up downtown, but also by how one certain husband of Ashland followed us on our walk and tracked us down not just once but twice to inquire about Red Ants Pants for his wife! Great thanks to Leo for stalking us so his beautiful wife Teresa could attend the house party and come away with wonderful RAP goodies! Great husbands get their wive's into Red Ants Pants!

We are thankful for our host, Elizabeth, for hosting a fabulous party in her new home. We met a ton of wonderful women--outdoor education students, professors, Outward Bound alumni and sportswomen. And in staying with our great husband theme, another husband attended the party to see what all the fuss was and we're proud to repoort that Blaze is another eager RAP fan!

We're always amazed at how supportive our fans are but we're also touched by the newly forged connections that occur among our party guests. Not only does RAP provide women with the pants to work hard in, but also it allows for women in their community to connect with new friends!

Not only did we have a grand time making new friends in Ashland but there was a big announcement at the party: Sarah is November's "Women of the Wild" on Camp Wild Girls, the brilliant website of Terri Lee, a Ashland resident who provides hunting and fishing resources for women. Thank you Terri for this great nomination! Now it's really time for Sarah to get that elk...

Our northern Wisconsin tour continues on to Eagle River for a beer, brat and bonfire party!
