Question: Who did we wipe out with a slightly late update this morning?

You wiped out ME!!! Thanks Charlie:)

Sorry :-/

Not me. Do I get some fresh bird anyway?

Ohh... have a few feathers anyway

Church in the cloud is awesome, Z-Man!!!

Once again, have a great day today:)

Not me, but I used to play Wipe Out on the drums. Does that count?

Ha ha ha ha ha, wipe out........

Good morning everyone. 27 and overcast here in Houghton. It must be winter, county snow plow came down the street this morning.

Once again, pretty photos this morning....well with 2 exceptions (I'm not a sports fan);). The cattle grazing scene is my favorite, but also like the fall flower....that one looks like an artist's 'study in gardening'. BTW, Alex, so you're a drummer? My husband played drums his four years in the high school band.

Shirley...I played trumpet in the elementary school band, but it sounded like someone beating a cat to death with a haggis.

Great pictures.

Finally got our two inches of snow in Ontonagon. Now all we need is another 198 more inches to meet the normal snowfall for the winter. :)

For the deer report; A hunter got a six point buck yesterday, no big deal but it was an albino.

A Mass City hunter bagged a fifteen point buck today, he weighed in at 203 pounds.

I know a lot of you don't like deer season but, it takes a deer over two weeks to die from starvation and the wolves and coyotes get it before it is even dead. Hunting is the balance of nature and a lot of Yoopers depend on the meat to survive.

LOL! Alex ;D I 'played' the bell lyre.....ahem, no comment. :] But hey, I had to play something to get into band class where my future husband was. ;)

Hmmmm; beating a cat to death with a haggis sounds illegal, yet fun!!

Oooh, bagpipes! <grin>

Shirley, when I was in high school, I marched with a bell lyre because our band did not march my regular instrument, bass clarinet. Every year in the fall and winter, I managed to kill a nylon mallet in at least one parade because it would crack and break, when it heated up while I was playing and then cooled off when I wasn't. Fortunately, nobody got hit by a flying mallet head. This was in Houston, not in Michigan.

Marching with a bell lyre will do a number on your body! The band went on a trip to a strawberry festival in a small TN town on one of the hottest spring days ever, so not only was I exhausted from the heat, I had a bruise on the front of my hip that took forever to clear up. Thank goodness that was our last field trip that year! My husband-to-be graduated at the end of that year, so I dropped out of bandclass.;)
