Sometime over the weekend, I stumbled across a list of statistics that quantifies the best Montreal Expos of all time, regardless of position. Such contentions are always open to debate, naturally, but seldom does it lead to war like this one does. Major-league baseball is at WAR. It has been […]

This time of year feels refreshing. Even if we aren’t a student or teacher starting off a school year, fall feels like the start of a brand new season with its vibrant leaves, crisp apples and refreshing autumn air. Only fervent haters of heat and the most devoted of winter […]
As the open water season begins to wind down, it was a busy weekend for area tournament anglers with several events happening across the district. The Shoal Lake Last Chance bass tournament took place at Shoal Lake, the Nestor Falls Musky Cup went down on Lake of the Woods and […]
If you stop and think about it this past weekend was one of the few wet weekends, we have had in a long time. I was of course planning on doing good weather projects but when that wasn’t the case, I managed to tackle things in my house that needed […]
My birch trees are now turning a golden yellow and the rain from the weekend had many of the leaves beginning a mat over my just mowed lawn. We are now in the early stages of the put away season. We will be closing the cabin for the winter shortly […]

The West Rainy River District Lions pontoon boat raffle was held Saturday during the Rainy River Walleye Tournament and the winners were a Devlin family – Brian and Michelle Sabbe and their two boys Rylan and Brayden. Rylan shared with me they were very surprised. Michelle informed me she has […]
Well, this weather could certainly stick around for a couple more months in my eyes. Everything I sit down to write my “Moos” I think I should not talk about the weather, but it affects everything I do. A warm dry, fall is hard to beat. Yesterday we preg. checked […]
