    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    Looks great pclark. Especially the hand! Same thing happened to me last week in Presque Isle and my hand swelled so bad my wife had to take me to Howard Young E.R. No problem breathing so no epi pen but the swell, pain and itch was incredible. Could not move my fingers or wrist for a few days...

    New sled ordered?

    My Grand Touring is in at LOLREC. Went on Tuesday to put more money on it and schedule delivery. Don't want it until around Thanksgiving as I still have to get the boat out of the water and tuck it away in garage. Have to rearrange toys and make room for the new sled.

    Polaris Mutt Mod

    Years ago I broke my right wrist which needed to be reconstructed with pins and screws. I spent about 6 months in a cast so it would heal and be somewhat functional. I would have lost a snowmobile season had I not found an aftermarket conversion throttle from thumb to fingers. Worked well for me...

    Football's Winners & Losers

    Doesn't surprise me. Pretty much everything free for the taking in Chicago if you stick a gun in someone's face which is a daily occurrence.

    Football's Winners & Losers

    LaFlower should have taken the easy field goal at the end of the third to put points on the board instead of going for it when the offense was struggling. The Pack looked good in the fourth but without a little bit of luck, (missed field goal) there was a very different ending that was looming.

    It Must Be Getting Close

    Got my call from Land O Lakes Recreation yesterday. New Snowmobile is in and ready to be picked up or delivered. A little relieved. When my daughter spring ordered hers a few years ago, it was delivered until late December.

    The Leaves - They are A-Changin'

    100 degrees yesterday in Park Ridge IL. Supposed to hit 102 today. Plenty of rain here over the summer but I have a maple that is already somewhat red, and my oak tree has already started to drop some leaves so it's not a stress thing. Early fall coming.

    I looked at the pictures twice and still can't find a motorcycle either.

    Heck of a project to take on yourself. I give you credit for the ambition and skill to do it. My back and knees hurt looking at the pictures.

    Keweenaw's Second meaningful rain

    I noticed the same thing in Presque Isle this week. Lake level is down about 4" and when we took a shoreline cruise around the lake my wife pointed out that the maples are starting to turn at the tops. Seems about 2 or 3 weeks earlier than normal. Hope to get the rain predicted for tomorrow...

    The Perfect Up North Property

    Where are you looking to be or do you have a preferred location/area in mind? The reason I ask is I have a friend in real estate and she is always telling me about new land for sale.

    UP Fall Colors

    First to second week of October is normally peak. With how dry it has been this year, it might be early. Anything past second week and they are coming down in the western UP.

    The Perfect Up North Property

    We started vacationing with friends at their cabin on a 100-acre private lake in Presque Isle Wisconsin in 1989. My kids were born in 90 and 93 and we continued to make winter and summer trips to our friend's cabin until 97. Their place is a 3-season cabin and there was one almost identical to...

    Play Ball

    Like I said indy, wrong! Doesn't teach 10-year-olds basics, fundamentals or sportsmanship. If the kid is a stud and can hit it a country mile, move your outfielders deeper and teach them to run and hunt the long ball. If it goes out of the park, congrats. My dad was always the manager of my...
