It has not really been the best of weeks for me.  This last Saturday, the 4th of July a very good friend, archery shooting partner and bowhunting partner was killed in a boating accident out on Flathead Lake.  His boat was hit broadside while sitting still, by another boat doing 20 mph.

Tomorrow Travis Wickum be remembered at a memorial at Faith Chapel in Seely Lake, Mt

Beautiful day here in NE Wisconsin. Temps in the 70s and feels like the 70s with nary a bit of humidity. Just enough of a breeze to keep you cool.

However, tomorrow it is supposed to rain and we have an outdoor birthday party planned for my six-year-old. I guess we can always move the party to under the pavilion if things get too wet. On the other hand, my little girl is so full of love, joy, happiness, and appreciation, that we could have a blizzard going and she'd have a great time. She'd make snowmen out of the blizzard...you know...lemonade out of lemons...oh never mind. ;D

Sorry to hear the news about your friend Montanan. Very tragic. May he rest in peace.

Hope you folks have a great day.

Sorry to hear of the friends loss. Flathead can get a bit crazy at times.  :(
Lake 5 used to be worse on the 4th .  Glad I'm into mortars now rather than boats .... ;D

Thanks for pointing that out Double D. I read the good morning intro and assumed you wrote it. Didn't even look at the poster's name. :-[

Sorry about that Montanan.
