Sorry for my computer skills, what I wanted to post was I signed up for getting my diving certification at Marine land like you suggested and am looking forward learning to dive and learn what goes on under the water. If all goes well I will be certified by the end of June. Thanks!

Maybe at some point you could inform us “lookers or want to be’s” On how to go about getting into diving and getting certified. Always thought it would be fantastic but don’t know anyone who actually does it or even how to get started doing it.It looks like you’re down in LaCrosse? I know of a place called Marineland Dive Center, I want to say it in Onalaska….They recently opened a shop in Black River Falls and I stopped in there, nice place, friendly people.
That’s a very good question. I think I’ll put together a little write up tomorrow about how I got into diving, and what it takes to get into it! Great idea!

A buddy of mine that I hadn’t seen in a while asked if I had been getting any on the side…I told him that it had been so long that I didn’t even know that they had moved it.

You can tell me what to do, or how to do it but not both.
We’ve stayed at the Days Inn also and worked out good. The biggest advantage to driving to I Falls the day before is you can avoid the mile long line at the border that forms later on Saturday mornings.
Have Fun!!!
Good info, thanks! (had to see if it worked)
I am happy to say, the times I’ve dealt with the DNR they generally are fair and professional guys (and gals)that give you a break if it’s a honest error

Love to see it….. all the Packers fans just quivering that Aaron is back….Oh we snuck in before and….Won the Super Bowl….Destiny….. 
The first time my HDS 5 died I didn’t have a good experience with the replacement and didn’t feel it was handled very well at all.
When the replacement had problems they sent me a brand new one just like you had sent to you…that is how you make a happy customer. Maybe they had a policy change or new management, but that is how you get repeat customers.
Girls play hockey??? Who knew… 
I have the Walmart $60 sealer and it works great. I don’t use it for big volume but a half dozen bags at a time it works great.
“Tough to be bitter about the Packers, were in first place or tied for it. While our best player got hurt last night its not career threatening or season ending in fact he might be back in three weeks. We still have a Super Bowl contending team. Tough to find a nerve with me. Losing to the Bears – we have pounded on the Bears, Lions and Vikings so much the last few years. Losing a game when you lose your best player isn’t to tough to swallow….Go Pack”
Are you sure your a “Packer” fan ….sounds like you have no problem swallowing ….
Nice way to finish out your year. 
By bringing Rush or Beck’s name in to discredit simple facts is a pretty weak defense.
It’s awful what this country is coming to, I don’t need a radio personality to point it out to me…. and I’m no genius…
Thanks for the report, love the lake and the memories made there.
Miss the days of Chris Granrud giving nearly daily fishing reports from Rainy.
Things change… not always for the better.
Be prepared to pay BIG up front fees(ie value they take off of home). Seems like a reasonable deal until you figure out how much it really costs you. 
Why would they have been flagged for delay of game?? They covered a loose ball. If the ball is put on the field it’s a fumble… You even said “he tried to take a knee”… Either you do or you don’t…if you don’t for whatever reason, you don’t. The ref’s made the right non call… In my opinion.
That one would make your day. Nice Job! 
Fastenal has a similar part. Part # 420013-131280 you can go to there website to confirm it’s what you want and your local store could order it in for you.
x2 LakeLink.com seem to have boats in a working mans price range and a good selection
You are going to have a great time. Take your time and follow the maps, you can get in big trouble with the prop if not careful.
I’ve had good luck that time of year in Lost Bay.
If you really want to get on the fish see if Chris Granrud (Rainydaze guide service) has a opening. I’ve fished with him half a dozen times and each time caught nice fish but more importantly he has taught us the pattern that is working that week and we’ve used that info to score all week.
Beautiful lake you can’t go wrong.
I think the most effective response is to hit them in the pocket book….Don’t spend a dime in the casinos. People that you know that frequent them, make them aware of what’s going on. Or better yet lets see some proposals from our political leaders about opening non tribal casinos. Time to stop [censored] footing and do something of substance.

I’ve wasted hours and hours on this site. You can get so much info on any destination there, it is fantastic.
It’s the new normal. I can’t believe your complaining about giving the government some of their money back. How do you expect them to do all of the wonderful things they do. If you had a heart in your chest, you should take the rest of the money Obama let you keep and go give it out to any of your neighbors that need it more than you do.
All the previous post are great info, as for a place to find a used boat, I have had good luck with LakeLink.com Their classified ads had boats in my price range not just the $35,000 rigs we all love to drool over. Good Luck
Vinyl only way to go, you won’t regret it.
I’m all for a reservation system. I have a 8 hour drive to get there and it would be nice to know I have a site and which one. I have never had a problem in the past but one year it was a little dicey. An unexpected delay on the drive up (someone forgot the tent) so it was nip and tuck with darkness to find a open site.
It is such a great place I would have no problem with a reasonable fee to stay here.
Maybe the guys that have been unemployed for a couple years that have found work,they probably like it….
There families that finally have enough money to pay there rent and buy groceries, they probably like it…
All the people that have a glimmer of hope that we can get rid of the dependance we have on countries that want nothing more than to kill each and everyone of us, they probably like it.
I have to believe Gramps and Grandma will find a place to call home as will the deer and the pheasants.
