My wife and I along with our friends from the Chicago area did a little color tour of the area. We drove the south road to Lac LaBelle and then did the north shore tour as well. One of the coolest things was the chair lift ride at Mt. Bohemia. It was only $8 and it was great for the camera...

A new tower was built by Verizon about 2 miles from where I live. It is in the Lake Linden area. There have been some rumors about AT&T renting some space on it as well but I'm not sure if they do that still. I noticed a couple of neat things as it was just completed in the last week. One is...

We went for a walk to one end through the trails and then back along the lakeshore. I have never seen something in my 37 yrs here in the Keweenaw that I saw that day. I saw a boat load of Crayfish along the shore of Lake Superior. I have only seen them along inland lakes in which we always...

We took a ride to the breakwaters at McLain state park and the big lake was rolling. Here are a couple of shots of it. m8man

I had some driveway work done as it has gotten pretty beat up over the last couple of years with plowing and stuff.. My little guy loves heavy equipment. He sat STILL for two hours watching the loader. Those things are cool. m8man

We have started picking berries around here. Now a bunch are ripe. Last weekend was a tad early here but now it is good to go. I think my 2 yr old ate about a hundred of them. Here are a couple of shots. m8man

Thanks to Mezz for this one. He hooked me up with an electric smoker to try out. I gave it the test run on Friday and tried some salmon and trout. I think it came out ok. I also brought some over to my Dad and he said he liked it. I did read the directions and put 4 chunks of soaked wood...

I was a B.V. (bridge victim)today. Stuck out of the Keweenaw for a few hours. The bugger got stuck up for about 4 hours. He almost hooked me up with a pass back to God's country then it unstuck itself or whatever. Anyway next time you talk to Chad give him an atta boy for helping out...

Howdy, Our family has a few days off, I think the dats are Aug 30th - Sept 3rd. We are looking at taking a trip to WI or MN. We have an 8 yr old and a super active 2 yr old. We are thinking maybe a waterpark or an area that we could get out and do some walking/exploring or active type stuff...

Got up and close to this one. I know it's kind of gross with it eating a deer but we got so close to this one and had the camera set so we got a couple of shots. I'd have to say we were within 30 feet of it. Here are a couple shots. m8man

Gosh where to start. Since we moved out in the country about 5 yrs ago (new house) we have had earwigs here and there. I noticed if I kept the grass cut and trimmed around the foundation of the house regularly it helped. Also don't leave dishes in the sink, no half full glasses of water out...

We hit the beach today as we busted 90 up here. We ended up heading out near Lac LaBelle and hit Bete Grise beach. It was awesome without toooooooooo many others out there.. We saw an eagle flying overhead with a fish in tow. here are a few shots. m8man

My boys made the cam today. wooo hooooo m8man

Anyone use these? I've put in a floating floor but with the wood panels B4. I'm wondering if it is as easy as it looks...This may be a smart alternative to the real tile and grout. Kind of like a fake one but I saw a floor and it looked great. If you have one did you do it yourself and do ya...

We hit the beach tonight for some fun. It was about 70 at the lake and it was awesome as we had it to ourselves. The kids had a great time and we hung out for an hour or two. Here are a couple of shots from tonight. m8man

I'm planning a trip out west and I'd like to pick up a tank to mount on the back little "rack" thing on my tunnel. any thoughts on how big of one I can take with me?? Like a gallon or so?? What is the best brand?? Thanks, m8man

There are sure some nasty clouds in the Keweenaw tonight. We missed the rain at the parade in Houghton/Hancock tonight but it looks like it's on the way now. m8man

Just wondering about him and hoping all went well. If anyone has heard chime in if you can. Otherwise I'm sure we'll find out soon enough. Frosty would melt here tonight!! m8man
