Roofing job at Fortune Bay, Tower, Minnesota
The Current gets the Walker and the Grandstand right, now how about bringing back @DearDara ?
I understand what you’re saying, and your comments are valuable, but I’m gonna ignore your advice.

Left the screen door open on the balcony to hear the rain and now there are loons calling from Lake Vermilion – ahh
The mosquitos have found the balcony – time to head back inside
Sitting under a comforter on my balcony at Fortune Bay watching the thunderstorms roll by
I love working at a joint that can make me a grilled cheese sandwich almost 24 hours a day
Bits and pieces:
- My new hire started yesterday at work, so my dream team of tech professionals is now in place.
- The new fortunebay.com site finally launched last week. Happy it’s out there, but still a lot of fine-tuning and additional functionality to add in the coming weeks and months.
- My golf handicap is trending in the wrong direction (up a full stroke this update), but our golf GM said he’d help me out once a week to get better.
- The new Ashworth golf shoes are great – most comfortable golf shoes I’ve ever owned.
- I’ve been gaining weight lately, hitting a four year high this week. More on that later.
- I apparently did my state taxes wrong and got an automated audit letter saying I owe an additional $184 before August. Reviewing forms this week…
- Started the loan application process to get a new car today. Would like another MINI, but will probably be “practical” and get a Honda Fit.
- Meeting with a realtor on Friday to discuss options for our underwater suburban home.
- Caught my first real cold of the year this week and felt terrible all day. Yuck.
- Haven’t run much since Fargo, but I made an appointment to see a sports doctor next week to review my knee, heels, elbow and bum.
- This weekend: a wedding and a birthday.

A very late (but safe) return to the Northland
Head cold and/or allergies, sunny skies, low 90Fs and a six-hour golf tournament before my four hour drive north – ick
2012 MIGA Golf Tournament, 18th Tee, The Meadows at Mystic Lake, Prior Lake, Minnesota
Glad it stopped raining – MIGA golf tournament today at Mystic Lake
The lightning show tonight is intense, plus here comes the wind and rain
Favorite WordPress 3.4 thing so far: support for custom post types and featured images in XML-RPC
Padraig Harrington looks younger now than when I saw him at Winged Foot
I wish Hazeltine would go after another Open
First upgrade to WordPress 3.4 went fine – no issues that I can see (despite the smaller number of base files)
Great chicken lunch from Rooster’s BBQ Deli in St. Paul, to be followed by six hours of HD U.S. Open coverage
No U.S. Open until 3? I guess sleeping in until noon wasn’t long enough
Love this Father’s Day gift: no alarm clock set for tomorrow
