    Solar Eclipse

    From the FWIW Department, I was standing in line at the checkout in Menards recently, gazing over the display of candy, nail clippers, and beef jerky and to my wandering eyes....they're selling glasses to watch the eclipse. The cardboard kind that they used to wear for 3D movies. For $1.99...

    Grooming history

    A neighbor kid built one in shop class. Guess it worked OK being pulled by snowmobile but very slow going. He'd have to make several passes over the same trail to get rid of the woops. I don't recall anything like we have now until the early 80's, mostly used equipment from the ski hills.

    TIME TO CALL IT ?

    Hate to rain on your parade fellas but I think we're in for a couple of storms in March and April. Nothing for us sledders but enough to need our shovels and blowers again. In the coming days I'll move the snowmobile into its summer place and roll out the Spyder but I don't think I'll be using...

    5 Years Ago, Saturday

    I hadn't realized it's been 5 years. As I'm typing this and looking outside, the ground is bare and temps are in the 40's and 50's. But it wasn't that way on February 24, 2019. My friends and I were planning to take the sleds out for a day on the local trails. But after further consideration, we...

    Wisconsin Gov. Evers announces support

    You mean like this one? They make this one at my favorite BBQ place. 25 ounces of Bloody Mary topped with a pork slider, 2 smoked chicken wings, Andouille sausage link and a half rack of ribs! Now, back to the subject at hand, No Snow and the Worst Season for Winter Sports in years! 54...

    Over 500 Miles Below Zero

    Yeah, he was on quite a few westerns. I'm thinking he was a paid participant to bring some publicity and star power to the race. Heck of an introduction to the sport! Some background on Dorothy Mercer, the female racer that year. Click on this link...

    Over 500 Miles Below Zero

    I get a sore back just watching that... and how the heck did Forrest Tucker fit in? Imagine all the organization it took crossing numerous public and private lands, let alone an International Border. Staffing, medical, did I see a helicopter in one shot? Quite an undertaking, probably couldn't...

    Game today?

    I'm looking forward to the President's interview at halftime....Oh, wait. Does anyone know the words to the Black National Anthem? I'm gonna need some help with that. Camera shots of Taylor Swift will exceed those of the game on the field. Tony Romo pulls a "Max McGee" and comes to the game...

    We need to be reminded $$$

    Just the opposite for us. A couple of weeks ago we had a plumber come out to clean a discharge line with tree roots. His helper was post high school age. His first day working, as his mom worked in the office and got him his first job. I felt bad for the plumber because you could tell he was...
