Looking ahead to the Off Season and Next Year there's a lot of discussion surrounding the New Ace, YamaCats, etc. Let's find out what you say...

With the season ending over the next few weeks let's find out what people are thinking.

Sitting here watching the rain fall and the snow melt I came across this story over on Vintage Sleds.com. The guy that sang the"Snowmobile Song" Stompin Tom Connors passed away this week. Wikipedia says that he was known to have smoked 100 cigarettes a day and drank just as hard living to the...

We had a great time riding out of Phillips, Wisconsin this past week. The trails and grooming were outstanding and Phillip's reputation as a "snowmobile friendly" town continues. Here's a few pictures from the trip. A big thank you to the groomers and local clubs of Price County. Some...

As a Packers Fan I don't have a horse in this race so I'll be focused on the food & beverage, commercials, and if the game is close, the final score. Here's a preview of a couple of the Superbowl Commercials. http://www.youtube.com/user/skechersperformance?v=cuBwAE14L4c...

Groundhog Day On this day in 1887, Groundhog Day, featuring a rodent meteorologist, is celebrated for the first time at Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. According to tradition, if a groundhog comes out of its hole on this day and sees its shadow, there will be six more weeks of...

Watching the video from Lake Gogebic reminded me of a company just down the road in Oshkosh, Wisconsin that retrieves sunken vehicles. Here's a link to their promo showing two vehicles, one in shallow water, the other in deep. I believe that the video was recorded on Lake Winnebago and it shows...

It's Championship weekend in Eagle River. Here's a link to the Track Camera which updates every 10 to 15 seconds. It's looks like it's going to be a cold one for the Championship on Sunday! Snow likely and a high of 4 degrees. http://www.derbytrack.com/track_cam.cfm

With our snow in Wisconsin reduced to a Big Dirty Ice Cube I've been looking for ways to fill my free time until it snows again. I picked up a Helmet Cam right before Christmas and have spent the last couple of weeks learning how to use the thing. Filming is pretty straight forward, moving...

Hi John, I was reading earlier today of the current drought conditions across the U.S. Many are comparing it to the drought of the 1930's during the Great Depression. My question is this, were the winters of those years Low Snow years here in the midwest? I'm not sure where one would go for that...

In the spirit of the holidays, my wife and I want to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas this year. We hit the road this weekend for our version of 4 Christmas's (actually only 2 but you get the idea) Each year our families get a little more, shall we say Quirky and it takes a little more...

OK Folks, in Wisconsin it's called "Bears Week". Here's a few random thoughts from a Packers fan. I like Chicago and whenever I visit I take 3 times the cash that I think I'll need and I usually spend it. Excellent restaurants, you guys eat well in Chicago, also World Class museums. We visited...

John's Forecast for Sunday here in Wisconsin indicates an Old Fashion Football game outdoors in the elements. Green Bay hosts the Lions at Lambeau Sunday Night with our first measurable snow for the season, hopefully the first of many snows to come this season. Think Snow, lots of Snow and...

I wasn't going to post this as I thought members might be getting tired of these stories but we lost our Yellow Lab this morning and I felt it's the least I can offer a great dog that gave us 13 years and 7 days of love and companionship. Molly had been in declining health since February, mostly...
