2 weeks ago Months ago me and some friends made plans to fish the Wisconsin fishing opener. We kept the date open, got babysitters lined up, bought our licenses and eagerly waited to get back on the water. However, it was apparent last week that we were going to have to change plans with the bizarre late spring we've had.
The iconic George Jones was laid to rest in Nashville Thursday (May 2), but he will not be forgotten. In the week following his death, Jones' album sales have increased a whopping 1000 %, which is a sweet tribute to the singer's phenomenal influence on country music.
2 weeks ago Let's face it moms, you can get your "me time" when the kids have grown and gone. While they are young, spend Mother's Day with them, after all, THEY are the reason you're a MOM! You'll both enjoy time at the Lake Superior Zoo and there's even a stuffed animal clinic. Bring in your favorite stuffed buddy for an annual physical! Everyone I know that grew up in the Duluth area has such fond memories of the Lake Superior Zoo!
Look, we all knew that 'Iron Man 3' was going to make a whole bunch of money and open at number one at the box office and kick the summer movie season off in style.

2 weeks ago I love "Bad Lip Reading." This time they took on the hugely popular AMC show, "The Walking Dead." Which, if you didn't know, I blog a lot about. My favorite line is when Daryl says, "I didn't mean to mess up your potato basket." Haha, take a look.

It's been 77 years since the 804 foot long German Airship Hindenburg crashed and burned in Lakehurst, New Jersey on May 6, 1937. There were 97 passengers, 36 of them perished in the disaster and it marked the end of the use of rigid airships in commercial air transportation. It used hydrogen gas as fuel, but, according to History.com it was originally suppose to use helium gas. Here is real footage of the Hindenburg disaster.

3 weeks ago Some people use Cinco de Mayo as a great reason to drink margaritas. I’ve always enjoyed tequila and margaritas, even on the 5th of December or June, or September. I know that margaritas aren’t that hard to make from scratch, but I prefer to buy the mixes and just add tequila. However, not all mixes are created equal. Here some favorites of mine that I think you’ll enjoy too.
