Yup, it was the main building. No one was hurt. I'm not sure what happened! No one at work has a clue either (the nursing home is about 1/2 mile from there). Really a bummer. I bet they'll rebuild.

[DeeDee]

I sure hope so.

Can't believe it I drove past Millelacs yesterday and saw 2 boats out on the water. BRRRRRRRRRR, a good stiff wind too.

[DeeDee]

I wasnt sure, but I knew someone would let me know if it was

[Peachy]

Ohhhh Reelemin: care to demonstrate for us???

[reelemin]

which sprain ankle on a flat surface story would you like to hear first?

[DeeDee]

I used to try to cover it up or pretend it didnt happen but not anymore. If I'm gonna look dumb I'm goin all out!

[Peachy]

Reelemin......I have the same story but only the outcome is that I ended up going under the knife to fix my ankle....

Ouchie Girls!! I always seem to make a beautifully graceful face plant on the ice once or twice a year coming out of my Otter.

[DeeDee]

LISA! I have never seen a beautiful, graceful face plant!

[Peachy]

Dee Dee, maybe someone has it on video??? Ohhh never know if it has been submitted to AFV! LOL

[DeeDee]

If you find one I'd LOVE to see it!

[Lisa Almquist]

I think I make some sort of graceful manuever just about every time I fish, boat or ice. All my rod tips are in jeopardy every time I use them!

No one's videotaped my fine ballet performances before!

[glenn57]

i am thinkin we need jims imput on that.

[Peachy]

No one's videotaped my fine ballet performances before!

*shrugs* There's always a first time for everything! OR it could be videotaped without you knowing and submitted to AFV!

I am sure her ballet is nothing compared to my chest dive on top of a five gallon bucket or my stepping in an open ice hole and dropping all the way to my thigh.

That could tend to get a little chilly!

[DeeDee]

stepping in an open ice hole and dropping all the way to my thigh.

glad to know I'm not the only one who has done that!!!

[Jim Almquist]

Last winter Lisa me and a friend were on Burntside and stfcatfish came over to see how we were doing and stepped in a 10" hole that someone made the day before and went up to his thigh. I thought he was going to break his leg but he came out OK and kept fishing for the whole day.

[DeeDee]

I was wondering about that, when you say how many times you move around, how common is it for someone to step in them? I hope no one has been hurt.

[Jim Almquist]

The only time I have done it is when I was 5 or 6 and I lost my Sunday shoes and boot and had to go and sit in the car till my dad and brothers quit fishing. The next day my brother caught my boot with the shoe still in it. The good part was I got to stay home from church but did not get to go fishing. It helps to have big feet along with huge boots

People do break there legs every now and then.

I got one for you. Last year I was ice fishing with my ex on a REALLY windy day, and as we were having issues setting up the house, a gust of wind came up, knocked the ice house into me and my one foot went into one of the holes, about a foot in. I was only wearing jeans too . I think this is more common then we think, but at least we can admit it .
