    boom-boom!

    The burn ban and the fourth falling on a Tuesday, was a real buzzkill. I love the free fireworks display you get driving down 83. This year the sky was just dark.

    Bismarck water treatment plant

    Every year I've been here, they've issued watering restrictions. Just be glad they don't also maintain the gas or power infrastructure, they would be totally blindsided on a 100 or -20 degree day.

    Boat ownership sucks

    Yeah, the update went flawless actually, but once in test mode, or after hitting exit at the navigation warning screen, it briefly flashes a depth then shuts down. Either it is refusing to dump its memory, or the board is fried. as far as fishing afterwards, I pretty much know the lake, but the...

    Boat ownership sucks

    First windless day in two weeks, so I get to the lake, unload the boat, park the truck. Start heading to my secret spot, turn on the humminbird 899, and it shut downs. Then reboots, then shutdowns... Realizing something's up, I go to the internet. I try moving the power supply to the trolling...

    Need Rain!!

    sprinklers don't even work thanks to the damn wind. But we're not the only state experiencing this crap. Florida is in the middle of one their worst droughts in 20 years, and all along the east coast, no one can get their boats out due to the winds.

    I've got a ground squirrel infestation

    The only rodents that suck are the ones that creates those mounds of dirt everywhere. I would relax, ground squirrels don't really like human activity and will eventually leave, if it is just one or two of them. However, if you built a house over one of their towns, prepare for all out war.

    My fault, I bought tickets for Wednesday afternoon game after Santana survived the 7th.

    Metal roof pros/cons

    Incredibly noisy, they also dent easily, and can fade fast. Also you really need to open your wallet to get a metal roof that doesn't kill the resell value of the home. Only advantage, it will last the life of the house, provided you can avoid major hail storms and don't mind the faded/weathered...

    Sak East End/Audubon

    Is my thermocouple broke, because sakakawea is 46 degrees and Audubon is in the mid 60s?

    Well my boat has built in AC now....

    All I know is the next time one of mine breaks, I'm going plastic. I cannot believe the insurance companies haven't tried to end this racket already.

    Salt that was evenly distributed by a snowblower.

    Oahe/Missouri River Fish Cleaning Staions

    Forget the cleaning stations, is it too much to ask to get the damn courtesy docks in the water within a month of ice off!?

    NFL News (Vikings)

    no thanks, at this point it is like taking over the titanic after the dip shit ignored all warnings, and plowed into the iceberg at 20 knots. Spielman shit his own bed, and now he can lie in it. But I applaud his effort of plugging a dozen open roster spots with 5th and 7th round picks. 2017 is...

    Snow/weather?!

    Been awhile since I've felt this bored. Twins are who we thought they were, the nascar race was rained out. Wind is blowing at 30 and it is just too cold to take the boat out. Couldn't even do yard work since the ice hasn't melted from this morning.

    Favorite gas station snack

    Ranch corn nuts, dill flavored giant sunflower seeds, and a frozen slush/icee/slurpee drink(coke, cherry, Mountain Dew, or a combination).

    Stanley cup playoffs

    It should never take more than 4 weeks to crown a champion. Though flawed, the NCAA, MLB, and NFL have the right idea. No reason the first and second round cannot be done in 5 game or less series, and it is ridiculous that over half the teams make the playoffs. and that will be my only 'why are...

    Who is fishing this weekend?

    So far 2017 has cost me a starting battery. Weird thing is I checked it before heading out. But somewhere between the shop and the west totten trail ramp it had enough. Nothing memorable, it was cold, windy, and only a couple northerns, hopefully next weekend is better.

    most comfy steel toe boot

    Keen, wrapping your feet in razor wire and shattered glass is more comfortable than those abortions red wing make.

    Who is fishing this weekend?

    How much of the east side is open? Judging by the satellite, a person should be able to put in west of totten trail, or troll around near the wolf creek ramp.

    Allegiant Air out of Bismarck?

    Flew to Mesa a couple weeks ago, the flights were early arriving for both directions. But yeah, it doesn't take much for Allegiant to cancel a flight, mostly due to mechanical reasons.
