I found this on Wikipedia... According to popular accounts, Summerwind was built in the early 20th century as a fishing lodge on the edge of West Bay Lake in Vilas County, in northeastern Wisconsin, and in 1916, purchased by Robert Patterson Lamont. According to some stories circulated, Lamont...

The view from the top of Timm's Hill this week. Wisconsin's Highest Elevation. Been there many times on the snowmobile. A fun place to search and find but a challenge to climb that tower with all your gear on!

Not a Ghost Story or anything haunted but a story of two B 47's that crashed southwest of Hurley, Wisconsin back in1961. Strange coincidence that two identical planes would crash in nearly the same location, weeks apart. You can visit the crash site memorial by snowmobile or ATV on trail 13 in...

Every once in awhile something comes along and I'm surprised by it's popularity. Let's start with Cell Phones, anyone remember "The Brick"? How about Bottled Water...why would anyone pay for water when you can get a drink from any spigot? Both are billion dollar industries. And there's the World...

Bogies and Leaf Springs for me. Those Slide Rails will never work, too much friction, they'll slow ya down, and they'll wear out after an hour or two. Bogies, Leaf Springs, and a good Chiropractor. That's the ticket!

I gotta write that one down. ☺️

Here's some excerpts from emails I've exchanged with John. He said it was fine to share with all, so here goes.... I'm still here at Mayo. Things are improving. My counts have really started to rise. I was 31,000 on Monday, so they gave me a transfusion. I jumped to 59,000 right after the...

Good for you and thank you for your years of service! 🚓

I have no doubt in the finished product, your craftmanship precedes you. We're looking forward to the updates!

Snowmobiling has been evolving since the beginning, some 55 years ago. Machines, trail systems, and gear have been advancing to a point that our grandfathers may not recognize the sport in it's current state. Four stroke engines? Groomed trails? Sleds that sell for 20K? I believe things will...

Not too far from the truth!

I think every generation has a day to remember such as Pearl Harbor, JFK's Assassination, the Challenger Explosion and 9-11. All dark days in American History that you remember where you were and what you were doing. If they only taught History in school maybe we wouldn't repeat the same...

Get well, Boss. You've got a lot of people here pulling for you!

I had worked the previous weekend so I had that day off. Sitting at my desk, TV on in the background with the morning news. Katie Couric says, "a small plane has just hit the Twin Towers". Hmmm, really? How could the pilot not see a giant building like that? Then the second plane hit and that's...

That's a nice mailbox, Kelly. A guy could make a buck selling those considering all the OEM's of that era.

Ah, Just Stirring the Pot fellas! Happy Friday, have a great weekend and Go Packers!!
