Tis the season...

Hey its Monday and not a holiday.  Someone opened the gate and let the crazies out.  Cape Fair looked like Memorial Day.  Ride arounds, toons, every brand of glitter sled and tin boats galore.  I even saw a trailer that said Cross Roads Marine.  I know it has been at least 40 years since Bill closed it.  There must have been 20 units parked at the bitty ramp at Flat Creek Resort.

Giddy-up.

Add me to next week's tally... albeit with much less glitter on my sled.  Indian point +/- a mile or two, depending on motivation.  Prefer the troller over big motor, so I'll keep out of most's way.

Add wife and I to the list as well. We will be there for a couple weeks starting the end of this week.

I saw the first toon-pulling-kids-on-a-tube I've seen this year too yesterday.  You'd think getting wet in upper 50's water and then getting air dried in the wind would be a bit chilly, but those kids sounded like they were having fun.  Maybe they are down on vacation from Minnesota so it seems like mid-summer to them.

I’ve never seen anything like it this early.  Both parking lots were full and most of the preseason spots above the marina had trucks and trailers in them.  I even saw one big old house boat.

Final warning.  

We arrive a week from Friday.

Bet there won't be no kiddie's out there on tubes then!

They'll be lucky to even be able to leave the house.......🧟‍♂️🌪️❄️⚡🌩️☄️🌊🌬️

Decided to throw a quick six inches of snow on the ground here this morning just to kinda get warmed up if you know what I mean.

It's good to know a guy's still got it........💪

Hoping it mellows if people ever have to return to real life. But I'm unconvinced that's going to happen.

Hate to say it, but I'm shopping other ponds.

Years ago working for Honeywell I had to do so work at one of the Honeywell locations in Minneapolis in the winter time.  At break time the local that smoked had to do it outside.  They would be out there at sub zero temperatures in the shirt sleeves.  When I questioned them about it, they could not understand my concern.
