The waters of the Wolf River near Fremont Wisconsin will soon be full of fish and fisherman for the 2008 Walleye run.
If you’ve never experienced this event, you should take a look at the photos of boats and home brew shore platforms with fully enclosed cabins with many including their own home bar!

The home building slump has created the prefect price conditions for home improvement projects by lowering overall demand for lumber. The result has been a steady decrease in the retail price of lumber that you’ll find at home centers like Lowe’s, Home Depot, 84 Lumber and Menards.
Lumber futures prices have been on a decline since mid 2004 when new home construction slowed with rising interest rates. In some areas, materials produced for new housing is stacking up in lumber yards , dropping prices to the lowest point in five years and forcing many mills to cut production.
If you are planning a home improvament project, now is the time to take advatage of this opportunity.

Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Favre announced his plans to retire after 17 years. Every Packer fan will miss him. Good luck Brett, now it’s on to Canton!
For the record books…
5,377 completed passes for
61,655 total yards
442 touchdowns
288 interceptions (doh!)
9 Pro Bowls
160 wins
started 253 straight regular-season games
3-time NFL MVP
Word is, Green Bay wants to honor Brett by renaming Ashland Avenue to “Brett Favre Boulevard”. We think “Brett Favre Pass” would be more appropriate.
Thanks 4 the memories Brett!
Maybe after a few hundred miles on the JD, you’ll come back…
