End of Summer


Ooookay, Summer’s over. Spent part of last week at our old stomping grounds, the Flambeau Flowage. After a few calm, cool nights the flowage had accumulated a bit of ice cover in the back bays. Good thing we had the 20-hp icebreaker "Mike's boat" so we could power through the stuff. The wind finally picked up and smashed all the ice, so Mike and Ruth could get into their payday fishing spots. We've got a few walleyes to show for it.

Also saw more Snow Buntings than ever up there. They've come down to northern WI and MN for the winter. Beautiful birds. Loons and eagles are slowly leaving the area.

Got in a nice bike ride today with a few friends. It didn't break freezing today for the first time since March. A few flurries, some salty puddles and a fresh breeze. What more could you want?

Guess I better finish raking.

So sorry sister. I'll post one immediately. Gotta be snail mail. E-mail just doesn't have that zing.
