    Hey 19 - Random Thoughts: In the year 2525...more or less

    DOT is doing a fair amount of traffic studies around the CR metro with those pneumatic tubes across the road. Wouldn't mind if it results in a higher traffic level rating for a road right by us so they would put in a flashing cross walk. Would feel better about letting the kids cross there with...

    Worker Happiness

    We have friends whom the wife is a vet tech and my wife and I were just talking about how hard her schedule is on their family. Most nights not getting home until 6:30 or later for what I can only assume is not great pay and on your feet basically all day.

    Mow or Weed Eat First

    The poll seems very decisive. Another one in the mow then trim crowd. I usually only trim every other mow and even then it is not like I can see a bunch laying around because I trimmed second.

    Hey 19 - Random Thoughts: In the year 2525...more or less

    Good day and a half in Anoka before coming back. We did walk around downtown a little bit and my wife found out about the whole Halloween town thing so at least she may be back up that time of year. I did see the speakeasy as well but we did not go this time. Also took a bit and hit up the Como...

    Pretty sure our kids spent half the time we were at our friends house on the Mississippi in Anoka throwing rocks into the river. Honestly surprised they still have any rocks left on the bank.

    Is Iowa an Eastern state?

    IF you were to draw a single line and say you have to be on one or the other I would put it much more along the Missouri River and on down south from there on the western border of Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana. That being said neither.

    Hey 19 - Random Thoughts: In the year 2525...more or less

    Random thought time. With the warm weather settled in I got to thinking about the days of youth in the summer. I grew up in and my parents still live in a split foyer with not much room for the ac/furnace and for whatever reason when they installed it they did not route a tube for the...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    If I could I would have bought an EV or a hybrid at minimum when I bought my passport used a few years ago. 99% of my driving is just around CR. Would also have looked more at if not bought a hybrid Pacifica instead of Odyssey as most of that driving is around CR as well.

    Holiday week or weekend?

    All of this lake talk has just reinforced that I need to get the family back to a cabin on a lake for at least a long weekend again next year and make it an annual thing. We had an amazing time and made some great memories.
