Hey Pete B

Maybe maybe not! All this coming week the prediction is near freezing days and low teens over nights. We didn't get the 12" of snow yesterday and last night as predicted. Only about 6". We always seem to get that one last shot of weather in April.

FYI to anyone who's wondering, the picture Gary posted is from a webcam at a restaurant down the road from me.

No reason to whine!!
Just get the sleds back out and grin ear to ear again.

Id trade the boat for a load of snowmobiles.

What is the point of snowmobiling with no sports or bars open ?
Suffering here today with a hazy day-were off to the left 5 miles away by the white line

Todd,
The picture is deceiving because there's an aerator keeping the dock area free of ice through the winter. It's easier on the pier pilings. Out in the middle there's still 2 feet of ice.

No reason you can't have both, use the lake (almost) year round

Pete.....I was starting to worry a bit about our upcoming boating season in WI, with everything being cancelled. I just heard from the guy where I keep my boat that "so far, so good". He made my day. After all we have been going through, please do not mess with my boating season!! You hearing the same a little further north? The Gov'ner letting you boat up there?

I did hear a guy on the radio say that in Michigan, they can boat in sailboats, BUT, not in motoboats. Not sure what that is about?? Not sure that is the official word for all of MI for all the upcoming boating season.    

At least down here we are top of the food chain,they are on the menu.



These guys though once liquored up look out

I have to question this statement, Im pretty sure who would be eating who once you jump in for a swim.

Bet those white legs taste just like chicken

Wonder how they figure a boat with a motor is different than a sail boat when it comes to a virus.

Another rule/law that makes no sense at all? I can't think of a reason for that, beyond someone in charge just not liking power boats. If I lived there I'd suggest banning the sailboats because they probably spread virus droplets with their huge sails.

Stinks like a Greenie backed move to me.

Pun intended?

Somebody on Prior Lake South of the Twin Cities had a nice Easter Sunday run    I think I have seen one of our members post they are from that lake????
