    Journal?

    Sorry for pulling this one. You're welcome to go back and re-read the old journals but to post in a current thread is a sensitive area for some. Let's keep things moving forward. Thanks!

    Sturgeon Spearing Pictures

    They're to cross the natural cracks in the ice. Wind usually causes the cracks to open up and or form ridges. They're steel and they're towed out from the shoreline by the fishing clubs.

    A Beer & A Horse

    "So, a horse walks into a bar..." A horse walks into a bar. He walks up to the bartender and says “Give me a beer.” The bartender is stunned, so he heads to the back of the bar to speak with the owner. “Hey boss” he says, “there’s a horse in the bar asking for a beer.” The bar owner pauses for...

    Sturgeon Spearing Pictures

    A local event on Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin. Kind of a Big Event around here especially during a snowless winter thus far. After less than ideal ice conditions last season, many spearers breathed a sigh of relief as they headed out today. Even with water clarity making conditions on Lake...

    2-8 Snowfalls

    Neenah, Wisconsin. Lake Winnebago area. Day 1 of the Sturgeon Spearing Season. A couple of inches overnight, in a lull right now, and then the main event coming in a bit later. Radar looks promising for 5 to 8 inches by Sunday.

    Fear the Deere

    I'm curious how he cut and shaped this foam. The last time I tried anything like that it turned out to be a horrible mess! The talent on this project is world class for all involved. (y)

    A Beer & A Horse

    Here's the spot to post your Superbowl Pick and take a gander at the New Budweiser Commerical! I think KC has a better coach but the Eagles have just as many (maybe more) weapons. I'll give the edge to "The Chefs" to figure it out.

    Weekend Fatalities

    I think we do a good job of keeping our readers current. Yes, fatalities are part of the content but we also include the positives like the Cancer Snowball event. We have an Event Category for fund raisers and the Current Conditions of the upper midwest are a good source for accurate...

    Weekend Fatalities

    Personally, I'd be interested in the figures of fatalities over the years. I'm thinking the numbers have grown over the years exponentially as the horsepower has increased. I recall in my early days of riding with groups, there was some serious drinking out there. Not just in bars but out on the...

    Super Bowl???

    I'm not a fan of either team but they are the best of the best, so I'll give them credit. It's what Good Football looks like as we're looking at you, Lefleur and Gutekunst. Rumor has it, the pattern will be changing in Feb bringing with it regular snows. If that's the case, I won't be watching...

    No Snow & What's a Guy to Do

    Pretty much another Snowless Winter thus far for those of us south of the U.P. What's a guy to do? Woke up Saturday morning and decided to take our Rescue Pup down to the lake for exercise. (hers, not mine) While there, we decided to look over the Ice Boats at the landing. A little...

    Three Old Guys

    They were old a couple of years back, when they rode snowmobiles from Minnesota to Alaska, a distance of 5,000 miles. They’re older now — 67, 71, and 74 to be exact. And ready again to hop on motorized sleds, this time to bounce over hill and dale from Grand Rapids, Minn., to ... the coast of...

    Three Old Guys

    The Three Old Guys If you followed their adventure a couple of years ago to Alaska, there's no need for me to revisit. But due to the interest of most of us on JohnDee.com, it's obvious that we'd want to follow along for their next adventure. One of the drawbacks is that some of us don't...

    The Beers Made Me Do It

    I was walking home from the bar the other night and decided to take a shortcut through the graveyard. Three Young Girls walked up to me and said they were lost and scared to be in the graveyard at night. So, I agreed to walk with them and help them find their way home. After a while of walking...

    A Three Dog Night!

    My brother has one and you're right, they're a lot of work. Cutting, splitting, and hauling wood is no picnic. But, you can't beat the energy cost and if you have a wood lot it's a good way to manage the dead stuff and encourage new growth.
