I was in the path of totality here in Ohio as well, I watched from the parking lot at work. I wasn't super hyped about it either, but man, when it happened, it was just the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I have boater friends that were out on Lake Erie when it happened and they took some...

Thanks for writing and sharing, Nora. Just know all of us out here in Dee Nation are thinking of and praying for you and Gracie.

I think this is such a common mistake, people think they have to over dress and put too many layers on their upper body and especially their feet. The reality is that this causes the most problems with getting cold and damp, because the gear won't ventilate. I'm like you, I wear a normal...

There's always hope. The bright side is it can't get much worse than this winter.

I wear a size ten regular shoe, and I've been wearing a size ten Klim for a decade with regular socks. Never been cold, never been wet, most boots aren't designed to wear thicker socks.

Sweet! Where did you find that? Not that I have the room for it, but if I was looking for a project vehicle something like that would be it.

Love it!

I was having a random thought last night as I was trying to fall asleep. When did grooming start? I haven't found much information on it, other than a few articles I have found, it seems like it might have started in the 70's? I think it would be neat hear about the history and see some of...

We're heading up to the Munising area in two weeks. If the snow doesn't show up, we're not cancelling our reservations and taking our four wheelers. Maybe do some hiking. Maybe do some ice fishing if we can figure out how to do that with no ice lol. Anyway, we're going to make the most of it...

The future is bright, brighter than I thought it would be...

Awesome, I love films like these! So cool to see John in it and the tribute to him at the end.

I love them all, especially the stops in Grand Marais and Paradise. But I really love stopping in at Jack Pine in Manistique, there's just something about that basement.

I feel the same, I don't think I understood how much I depended on his forecasts. Sure, you can look at all kinds of stuff on the internet, but his forecast graphic was the simplest way to know when and where the snow was probably going to be.

Thank you for sharing, Nora. John Dee and your family has had such an impact on people that you've never met. I'll never remember how I first started reading this journal, but I've been doing it faithfully every Monday morning for more than twenty years (or however long it's been). There is...

Yes! This one! Just fantastic (wish he would have done more like this)!
