My apologies about missing last week.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway.. It is a lot like summer around here. There were a lot of people around last week and it is only a little quieter this week. It is great to see people out enjoying the nice hot weather.<\/p>\n<p>The critters are active. I have seen a lot of deer fawns and Momma deer too. Yesterday on the road I also saw two foxes, a couple of fawns, a skunk, and what looked like a mink or a weasel. The deer have been running into the roads on occasion, someone suggested that the bugs were responsible. I could see that.. when I was working in the woods this week the gnats and mosquitoes were ample.<\/p>\n<p>We have a nice weekend coming up with Saturday close to 90 and sunny and Sunday a few degrees cooler. The only chances for rain are this afternoon and later Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>When it is hot is it time to call Kosirs. They have lazy river tubing for $5 (cheap!). The river was getting a little low for it this week but yesterday&#8217;s thunderstorms put us right back into the fun zone. There is also whitewater rafting, and the Menominee River would be a good pick for that.<\/p>\n<p>We have some events coming up this weekend with the big two being the Athelstane VFD Picnic and the Lakewood Mardi Gras.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-3079 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/071318a.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/071318a-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/071318i.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/071318i-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Next weekend is the Hog Wrestling at the Caldron Falls Bar, and Steve is back running it.
