    Value of memorabilia

    No, I wasn't aware of that. But it doesn't surprise me. "Circus People" were entertainers and if they needed to add family members that was they way it was. The Show has to go on. I sent you a private message also.

    Value of memorabilia

    Boy this is a tough question. I know well the history of the Wallenda family but I also grew up in a town that revolved around the circus world. I recall seeing many of the old time performers as a child but I wouldn't expect others to know about them. Considering that there will be several...

    Squatters Rights

    I was talking with a guy today that had a large, rural property taken over by squatters. He's a single guy who travels for work, and is gone for months at a time. The place is off the beaten path and can't be seen from the road. They trashed the place, sold off anything they could including...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    This will be the first time in 20 plus years that we haven't been to the cabin in the winter. It's hard to justify the nine hour drive and warming the place up to just sit around. If there is no season this year in Vilas county, which looks very likely, we will not have been at the cabin for...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    I talked with someone this past fall and they were supposed to take a look but ran out of time. Next year we'll take a run at them. The beaver have really multiplied around our area. Without taking them out of the picture it does no good to tear out the dams. They'll start rebuilding the next...

    Cost and time to replace new entry door

    I shoot for 40 in the winter. Normally it isn't easy to get it that high. This winter has been easy so far, it's too damp and not cold enough yet.

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    That low area just east of the Retreat is water draining from my property across W. The beavers have it pretty damned up north of W. I bet I have 10-12 acres of ground covered in water now that was mostly dry a year ago. And with the river outlet from PI Lake backed up all year because of the...

    One of your memorable moments

    A friend and I were on our way back to PI after a run up to Houghton. It was late, around 11 pm, 15-20 below and snowing and blowing hard. We had stopped at the Hoop to warm up then headed south on Gogebic. We tried to keep shore lights insight but eventually the blowing snow had us riding...

    A really unique place is Stubb's in Ontonagon. So much crap hanging in one place.

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

    I had the same exact problem. Got the low dollar ones but not the big money rebates. I get an email each day from the USPS (informed delivery I think) that shows a picture of all the first class mail coming that day. I would see the rebate card but the large ones wouldn't show up in my mail box...

    Looking for some info on Handle bar muffs

    Paul, I have the skidoo muffs on a couple sleds if you would like to see them before buying something. Just a few miles away in PI if you're interested. I'm up for about a week longer.
