around here we got a lot of people in the water, seveal drownings, lots of people giving up perfectly good boats to hang on the shipping lane boueys on the detroit river, head on colitions. one person got trapped by her own boat up agains a bridge on the huron river.....

pretty much just a bad weekend for boaters in south east michigan....[pirate]

What rain we recived was welcome .
We have grass seed out and every day it's watered .
Had to work Saturday then cut wood for the winter , could have used a few sprinkles then just to cool down a bit .blew the clutch out of a new chainsaw on sunday .
Walleye have been great out on the bay .
Did hear another fisherman didn't make it home this weekend .
Localy the big news was a 44" tiger was landed in one of the pools below the Beaverton dam .
Cut another pick-up load of firewood after work today , sweat like a dog !

Looking forward to the weekend [fishon] .

we could have used a few daze of that drizzle down here on the farm, rain to the north of us rain to the south east and west of us,

what a pain, we either get to much or not enough.... [:/]

those days of drizzle should make the farmers up your way happy, things should be growing good.

I lost all the beans at my house, I got a pack of ground hogs move in under my house [mad] they climbed over the fence to get to the beans...

on a side note, I wonder if they ever got those flooded cars off the fair grounds in Ionia?

they got most of them out saturday..now there trying to figure out whos gonna pay for the damage..on that note anybody here old enough to remember the lav raft races man that was alot of fun putting together a homemade raft and floating it down the river..
[signature]

[davetclown]

good question, I am sure a lot of them only had pl-pd insurance. full coverage would have covered it...

you cant realy blaim the fair for a hundred year rain that wasnt predicted....

I am old enough but never had the oppertunity to partake in that great adventure. I have done the cardboard boat down hill races in the winter, that one is always a blast, The funnest part is getting loaded and building your boat before crashing or colapsing it on the way down the hill with a minum of 10 other people in the boat....[laugh]
