Sid 1, Coyotes 0

That's the score today!  In the long run, however, the yotes are ahead.  Dave took his new gun and caller out to the meadow.  A mere 30 minutes later he was done.

You can tell that the boys on the ends are up to NO GOOD!

High water in Northfield




We got lots of rain in the last week and the Cannon River is overflowing in southern MN.  On Friday, Dave, Jack and I took a field trip downtown to check it out.  All the bridges into Northfield have been closed.  The river is projected to crest today.  There has been lots of damage.  One of the pictures shows Froggy Bottoms Pub - Mom, Dad, Luke, Dave and I ate there last September.  Sandbags had been placed 2 feet high on the patio railing.  The water came over the top and there is 7 feet of water in the restaurant.  Another picture is the softball fields - home of Slugger Sid - under water.

Parker's 2nd Birthday




Parker turned 2 on September 13th.  There was a terrific Shrek-themed party at her house.  Kent, Karen, Sam, Eric, Julia, Sue, Ryan, Megan, Dave and I joined in the fun.  The cake (made by Nicole) was awesome.  Parker and the rest of us had a great time!

State Fair

Our trip to the State Fair was fun.  Here are some pictures!

Kevin, our neighbor, said "what a great tree! It doesn't obstruct your view out the window". Kevin is a positive thinker, just like us.
