winter

I’m no ice fisherman. I’ve tried it a few times, but just don’t find the joy in it that others gladly do. Not enough action for me I guess. However, I appreciate the solemn meditation that can be had while getting in some fishing either alone or with friends. This attraction might get me out […]

Some moments that are actually pretty ordinary seem to encapsulate other moments in their similarities. When we have a bad day or a rough week at work we lean on the fact that it’s Friday and when something goes wrong we can say, “Thank God it’s Friday!” Or perhaps someone points out with a meme […]

There are nearly 160,000 visitors per year that come enjoy the holiday tradition. The best part is that you can walk, drive through, or […]

If you’ve been complaining about the weather the last few months or so I have to wonder: how long have you lived here? Compared to what we usually get it’s been pretty tame.
