They came in at four with five walleye and a discussion of the trim that continued through supper. David had meant to come and could not get away. The…

It needs to go on the jewelry list. Thank-you notes: the partners (one note, from both of us), Jim Hrdlicka, the women i…

2017

Opened May 6. Opener: Ray and Jim, eight walleye, kept five.

Found this year: the outside spigot on the lake side split along its length. It froze with the hose still screwed on. The plumber: Mike Juntunen from Arbor Vitae came Saturday afternoon. He put in a frost-free one. $164.00. So: HOSE OFF in October. Otherwise: one mouse, no leaks, feeders up.
