We had a disaster at home and I have been very preoccupied. The water heater sprang a leak and collapsed the floor, a door frame, and soaked all of the insulation under the house. Surprise. Servicemaster out of Green Bay was right on it and has been tremendously professional in the cleanup. What a disaster. At that point I have been a little busy.<\/p>\n<p>We had a nice thunderstorm come through last night with a big light show and some downpours. There was no severe weather but it was a good light show.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend one of my favorite local bands Rapid Transit is playing at Uncle Mikes (The old Tommy&#8217;s Corner Pub). Saturday night at 7pm. The thing that I like about this band is that they are tremendously talented and they play songs that everyone knows and loves. The part that I really like is that they play the song and move onto the next one. A lot of bands can leave you stranded on the dance floor as they belabor <em>Born on The Bayou<\/em> for 37 minutes. Not here. I got to know them when they played my wedding celebration last fall. Great guys, great band. They will also be at The Rustic in October.<\/p>\n<p>The Rapids Resort has a big deal going on this weekend. They have a celebrity guest chef coming with a unique menu. This is her second trip here and the first one was apparently very well received. Then they are having a band called Gallivant that a lot of people seem to be really excited about. I know nothing about them but they play all over the upper Midwest.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/08172023a.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-3962\" src=\"https:\/\/northerndestinations.com\/scindex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/08172023a-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In weather we are in for a hot weekend with 85 Saturday and 90 Sunday.
