Hey Don, we don't know the answer to that. So far...none!

I understand beautiful northern Minnesota was quite white yesterday! How were the park benches?

Empty,

We only got 3-4 inches over the weekend, some near the twin cities got more than that on sunday.

We pulled our boat out of the lake on Friday night, it was a project. it has been raining here for 2 weeks prior to this and the bilge pump on my boat decided not to work. So I had to very carefully drive a water logged boat to the access. My wife was the only one who could bring the trailer and she doesnt know how to back up. Was a challenge, and the boat is on the trailer crooked. Will have to hide it from the neighbors so they cant see how shoddy a job we did.

But it is supposed to warm up to a sultry 40 some degrees this week.

Welcome to God's country.

Funny! Been there, done that! I never was any good at backing the trailer/boat at ramps. Hubby always had to do that. I was the one in the freezing water trying to get it to load straight. And we didn't have a power wench on the trailer or a power tilt on the motor - a 175 Merc on a 17.5 Glastron.

Wow, Nice sounding Boat,

Mine is a vintage 1971 Glastron, rebuilt. It has a 115 hp Evinrude with power trim, but is only a 16' with measeure to the 15' 4". I think they measure to the back of the motor, LOL.

Wife had hip waders but they were leaking in filled up to her ankles
