    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    Summerwind is a great story. I've read a lot about it and it's quite fascinating. Last winter, I stayed in Eagle River and found the road that goes by the property, but I was too nervous to drive down it because I've read that neighbors don't like lookey-loos. Years ago, I even wrote a...

    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    Halloween is my favorite holiday by far, and I love reading about regional legends, folklore, and ghost stories. Do you have a favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location? My favorite story is probably about the Crying Cabin near Marquette. How about you?

    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    I agree 100%! My cousin became a police officer a few years ago and I do sometimes worry that he'll find himself in one of those crazy moments where a split-second decision he has to make might ruin his life.

    Rising fuel costs hinder planned trips?

    pclark, we have a cabin in Iron River, WI and I noticed less boat traffic on the lake than I would have typically expected. It was pretty cool and windy on Saturday, though, so maybe that was a factor. Also, we had 39F on Sunday morning!

    Weather propagandist

    I think John Kerry did great work. It's not easy to fly around the world in style and eat catered meals while simultaneously saving us from climate change.

    Beware of Walmart Prices!

    I love the Walmart generic peanut butter....I think it's made by ConAgra, who also makes Peter Pan. Does Aldi sell Peter Pan?

    Weather propagandist

    Once they started naming snowstorms, I began to believe that it was to convince people to understand how out of the norm it was to have "bad weather." Maybe it is even to generate a little fear in people?

    Gas

    I remember reading about this a while back. I'm not a fan of the idea but I'm still curious to see how it shakes out.

    Gas

    I've been saving my pennies so I can buy my next car with cash. If there's a relatively "cheap" electric car available in 4-5 years, I suspect I'll buy it. If not, a hybrid might be an option.

    It's a Walmart thing....

    Regarding the theft, that's really frustrating for me. I was at a CVS in Denver in May and some guy with a handful of stuff just walked out of the store in front of us and the manager. I told the manager that the guy didn't pay and the manager simply said it happens all the time. He also said...

    It's a Walmart thing....

    I love the self checkout at Walmart and use it exclusively. However, I have never had my receipt checked upon exiting the store. I wonder what the requirement are for having a receipt-checker at the door?
