I have an aerator in my pond to help with algae, it keeps the pond from freezing, during the winter, and in really cold weather the geese flock to it to keep warm.

Thinking of summer sailing with the grandkids on my O'Day 22 sailboat

I say Ukraine and Europe should tell Trump and Putin to go F*** themselves, and then they should finish off the Russian army, Ukraine has done the hard work. Defeat Putin and you will have peace for 100 years in Europe.

Still thinking about summer, Basswood Falls Boundary Waters Canoe Area.

So, Ukraine has bled the Russian army, and since Trump is on Putin's side, what stops Europe from fighting alongside Ukraine to defeat Russia who has threatened them for 75 years? Thus, starting WWIII. Europe will probably never have the opportunity to defeat Russia more than now. Will they?

Not in the news. I am a member of the international automotive technician network, a forum for professional automotive technicians. Canadians are leaving the site because of Trumps actions. I fear Trump may have permanently destroyed the relationship between Canada and the US.

Trump has decided to just ignore court orders to stop. So, when most uneducated people believe this is just on TV and just laugh it off, what happens when this behavior filters down too your local officials and they start just doing whatever they want. Think about it.

So the courts are stepping up and telling Trump NO, and it looks like Trump is just going to say make me stop. Trump controls the DOJ and the military so who is going to make Trump stop? Looks to me like nobody. So I guess we just sit around and watch democracy die?

Definition of Woke, Merriam-Webster dictionary “aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues" I am tired of the Right changing the meaning of words into insults and slurs as it suits them. Nobody became too woke. And nobody should be ashamed of being woke.

Hoping summer to get here, Boundary Waters Canoe Area.

So now Trump stands before the world, wants to buy Gaza remove the Palestinians and build a resort to solve middle east peace? Did I hear that right? And why would anyone not think this is the ravings of a madman? I don't like JD Vance but at least he is not crazy. time for the 25th amendment.

Trump is ranting and raving about the poor trade deals between USA, Canada and Mexico. When Trump in his first term negotiated those deals. This drives me crazy, why doesn't the media simply ask Trump who did the agreements and why they weren't bad in 2020 when Trump replaced NAFTA?

Looking out the back door at the lake, sunset.

I hate to say it, as I will suffer along with the rest of the USA, but Canada and Mexico need to work together and teach Trump as well as the Republican party a lesson over tariff's. Hopefully Republican Representatives and Senators will fear midterm retribution from voters more than from Trump.

Trump just started the tariff war with our closest allies and longest trading partners. What really upsets me is that Trump is destroying these relationships, and NOBODY will try and stop it. Every American will pay the price for this insanity.

A lot has been said about checks and balances in our constitution, and these have worked for almost 250 years, only problem is that they only work if a human being with guts and morality uses them to fight the overthrow of democracy. The issue is our elected officials are just sitting on their hands

Thinking of summer Merrimac River canoe trip in Missouri

President Biden just gave the most historic farewell address since Eisenhower. And I am so disappointed that Biden did not give speeches like this during the election campaign. It just does not make sense to me why he held back?
