My condolences to the families and friends of the two high school students recently lost on Lake Minnetonka. There are no words I can provide that will comfort you at this time. May your grief be short and the happiness they gave you great.

Chells. That's what I was thinking as i read the paper today. But... When I was at that age, I did some pretty dumb things myself that my parents could not control. I think these young gals were not aware of the thin ice conditions and all this talk about black holes with open water this year. Very,very said story. Hope the parents can get through this.

Very sad. My heart goes out. Can't imagine what that girl must have been thinking.

They aren't sure when the car went through, one report said between 7:30 and midnight. 7:30 isn't so late on a school night.

Have fun, catch fish, but most of all be safe. Make sure your only problem is catching fish.

D-Man,

I'm suprised I'm alive today myself!

Teenagers have a tendency to think they'll live forever, I know I did.

I live in the kid's neighborhood and I heard they were out around midnight--I probably should'nt take it for the complete truth.

I guess it stuck a "cord" in me from my youth--parents divorced and a Father who didn't care--I would take off all night screwing around and come in at dawn.

it is sad. even though im from PA those things happen here every year and i would have to say happens where ever there is ice.
i remember how stupid and ignorant i was be cause i was on the ice every year and thought i knew it all. then i went to a VFD sponserd ice rescue class. i found out that i only knew two things one that there is ice and two how thick it was. now im educated to what the dangers are and how to spot them

      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

      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.
