Yeah I'm guessing the lake grass is long. Need to get a robot mower.

We had over an inch in our gauge since yesterday. I drove in the heavy downpour yesterday and water found its way in as Des had a small wading pool by here feet. Sucked it all up and no water today so guessing it was from the heavy rain. had wipers on high all the way to Coyote Moon Grill in Sauk Rapids. That and my rear wiper motor crapped out his morning. Time for a newer ride I think.

Evening Dave! Yeah everyone did good this month.

Had to go to visitation tonight for a guy in town that passed away. He was 37 years old. Married with four kids. Very sad. His family owns the business next to my shop. He beat Luekemaia twice but he got the stomach flu last week and his body couldn't handle something and he got septic and then had three heart attacks in a row. Revived him from the first two but not the last. Sad deal. One of his sons was is in Jase's grade.

Good morning Cory!

Yes it was. Yep way too young. He was a big Harley guy. Just saw a bunch of them ride by and the funeral is at 10:30. I imagine there is a lot of Harleys down there.
