Spent most of September putting shingles on my roof.  Finally got a look at fall colors in early October.

Sounds like Silly Town!  :rolleyes:

 

I did hear that Mr. Mcfeely went on to become President though!  :D

About 20 years ago, through a strange and mutual connection of sorts, I ended up bar hopping with Mr. McFeely's real life daughter in Los Angeles.  She was pretty cute.  Also had a husband with her.

 

She said Mr. Rogers was basically an uncle.  And that he was exactly the same on and off TV.

Anyone up top seeing any Northern lights they have been talking about the last few nights?

Chaffmj?  

Haven’t looked and haven’t seen any FB group posts on them like normal.  Last winter/spring we tried to catch them but never saw a GOOD show.  But also the phones pick them up better than the actual eye does too so it’s hard to justify loosing sleep over.

 

Maybe soon on a lake somewhere?

I was up until about 230am looking and didn't see schitt.  Got up to red about 1030 last night.

 

The Aurora tracker thing that NOAA or whatever operates showed it didn't blow up as far south as predicted.  Looked like it blew up deep in Ontario though.

My sister lives in Texas and is a Northern lights freak so she Facebooked us to try and see them, nope.  

She once did the Iceland or Greenland deal, only to have it cloudy for 3 days! 🥺

I used to take them for granted when up deer hunting by Walker when stepping out of the log cabin to take a [PoorWordUsage]s at 3am.  Oh cool! 😴

I have never seen anything more than a super faint green glow one night on mille lacs..  The aurora gods like to make them happen on weekdays when I'm in the south metro. 

 

This winter is the year though.  The predicted northern lights is what made me take Friday off and head to red lake with the other 10,000 citiots.

Tomorrow will be the brained tourney on red for sure.  

 

Fish don't seem to be super hot anywhere that I can see.  Lots of beer drinkers catching more rays than fish.  It's a gorgeous day.

We are still planning on going next weekend.  I’m more interested in the crappies too and they are coming back a bit.  At least enough that they can be found.  The group I’m going with are walleye peeps though…. Bummer….

Yeah, hard to catch this low.  After seeing them in the Arctic Circle I don’t ever expect anything as intense but I keep hoping.

i'd be more concerned fishing on clear ice with no snow.....fish get real spooky from my experience!!!

I’ve seen them several times, but never as brilliant as one time up north of Buyck when they were super intense and displaying every color imaginable. There were 4 of us that witnessed in awe and to this day I personally haven’t seen anything like it in person or in pictures. Unfortunately that was before cell phone cameras.

Sorry for the late reply but I haven't seen any for a while and just got back home tonight from a trip. Also living were we do we just can't walk outside the house and see them; we have way too many trees.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
