    School Reopening

    You're correct, however I think the data is showing pretty clearly that the 0-10 age kids don't spread at a rate near that of adults. However, the 10-20 age range does spread at nearly the rate of adults. There are several cases of summer camps that did have big outbreaks in this age of kids...

    Sturgis Web Cams

    I'll be curious to see the impact of the rally. The COVID is just getting to this area, I heard of two cases close enough to me for some discomfort this morning. Bringing 250K people to us can't help. What will happen who knows. Lots and lots of bike showed up yesterday. Today and the...

    Lebanon Explosion

    So let me get this straight- they store 2750 metric tons of unstable fertilizer in a port building for 6+ years. From the pictures it was far from secure. And now we're talking about other contraband of even higher danger being placed in there too, then destroyed purposely? I just can't buy...

    Lebanon Explosion

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvmZg3A0tFw This was 120# of Tannerite. The explosion was heard 60 miles away. Perfect scenario with a pretty sealed structure. They underestimated how long it would take to clean it up, was a major PITA driving around the field picking up pieces of bin. I...

    Sturgis Web Cams

    The scourge of the earth has begun to invade for the beginning of the three week nuisance. It used to be neat, but 20 + years of living in the hills I'm over it. Good time to leave if possible. Good for the area but makes getting much done difficult at times. Good news is I'll be on a...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What do you guys plant for early tomato varieties? My Roma's I know aren't early producers, but my neighbor has 100% ripe tomatoes right now. He has NO IDEA what he bought LOL. Mostly interested in paste type tomatoes. Just curious.

    School Reopening

    Hopefully zero. But, isn't the other half of the question what is the death rate of all the people it will be coming home to? To reiterate, I believe we need to be in school. But people MUST be prepared for kids to get it (they do). Hopefully none die from it. But people also MUST be...

    School Reopening

    It is going to be interesting to see what will happen. Even if you're not a CNN fan, these are good reads- https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/31/us/distance-learning-inequality/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/31/opinions/digital-divide-kids-education-wellness/index.html Unfortunately too it...

    Planer Boards

    Cabelas Depthmasters. $30 usually if you catch the sale. I have 4 of the planer board rods and 2 dipsey rods and they are perfect.

    School Reopening

    Unfortunately this is true. The schools take on societal burdens that only further remove them from their true purpose. It's a necessary thing and I WANT that 7yr. old out of that crappy situation and in school. It's just another element public education wasn't designed for, much like the...

    Schwan's home delivery ENDING

    I thought most of the guys were owner/drivers? Or at least they owned the inventory? Am I wrong there? Seemed like a hard hustle, late nights, knocking on doors. Can't imagine it got any easier with the crap going around.

    School Reopening

    The accountability for work is huge. Expectations were low last spring with the quick onset of things. This can't become an excuse for students to not do their work or do a poor job at it. Too many want to leverage it. I agree on the face to face. However, I think the mixed face to face /...

    Planer Boards

    I think the Church Boards handle heavier applications better than the Offshore's. But the Offshore boards do a better job with lighter applications and big waves/wind. I have heard too that the Cabelas boards are good. All my board tactics have been off the bottom, but this weekend I may...

    Tying Your Own Spinner Rigs

    If you want to pull faster, the have much less resistance than other types of blades. But don't work as well at slow speeds. I have had a couple days where they were a clear winner....but those days were few compared to Colorado blades or Smile blades. No reason I can figure out they worked...

    School Reopening

    I don't disagree that many "essential" workers have certainly played the role they signed up to. Teacher are ready to do the same. However if you're a 60 year old teacher with a lot of health issues, I think they should be have an option to leave or teach the virtual options.

    School Reopening

    I'll be in school right with the kids as an educator. I believe kids need to be there for themselves and for us to work toward normalcy again. That said, there are several things that need to be addressed- -Protections for vulnerable staff. There are lots of older teachers that are certainly...

    Tying Your Own Spinner Rigs

    Whats the best snell tying aid? I have a little red one with a pull through needle of sorts, but you have to be perfect to not kink the line on double rigs. I tie them to burn up time in the winter, if I go crazy I usually have several years worth. I would like to see someone sell a GOOD...

    Zebra Mussels found in Lake Lamoure

    Yes they contribute to weed growth due to increased water clarity. Or that is at least the theory. Obviously, some plants aren't going to grow beyond a certain depth in most cases, so this can be argued to a point. I think you would have to see a marked difference in water clarity for weed...

    Zebra Mussels found in Lake Lamoure

    Yes, Francis Case has them. So I am guessing Sharpe does too, lots of boat hopping there. And if Sharpe does, Oahe will too. With the amount of OOS spring fishing that happens on Francis Case it isn't a surprise. And they're taking them home to their lakes now too. Pickerel Lake in NE SD...

    cloud seeding...

    Not denying it has an impact, but shouldn't you be able to take cumulative precipitation models (during the months the seeding is occuring) and verify that rain is being dumped before it gets there? If it's that black and white, it seems it should be relatively easy to see in the precipitation...
