waves....lake superior

Nathan Klok | Minnesota on Instagram: "Lake Superior’s rage shown in full force • With reports of 40+ mph wind gusts and waves up to 20’ in height, I made the last second decision to head up to the North Shore from the Twin Cities to capture the waves crashing into the shoreline. It was well worth waking up at 3:15am for and driving a couple of hours! • And by the time all was said and done, I was by far the most soaked I have ever been from the rain and waves crashing into me. I don’t think there’s a more exhilarating thing that you can do along the North Shore than being blasted by wind, rain, and waves while hearing the roar of mighty Lake Superior • • • • • • #CaptureMinnesota #OnlyInMN #StribMinnesota #StribDuluth #Sony #SonyAlpha #BeAlpha #Canon #TeamCanon #DestinationDuluth #Minnesota #GoOverboard #CaptureDuluth #VisitDuluth #Landscape #Nature #earth #earthfocus #visualambassadors #artofvisuals #Lake #LakeSuperior #Waves #Storm"

10° F, one might think that it was winter.

I'd trade you for my 5*.

Can't wait to get a foot of snow this weekend followed by 2" of rain next week. That's gonna be just swell.

Now to finish my year end goal write up. For good.

 

[Pesqueeb]

Pretty healthy layer of ice and snow. Going to be a good day to stay inside.

 

[HardtailHack]

My brain is the best, it has decided that a few days before work goes back that 1AM is the new bed time, yay!

 

[Muddy]

Waiting for winter wheel changeover appointment before the weekend storm. Might see if a Fatbike can fit beneath me at the shop later.

Have you seen Superior or the other great lakes in person? They're big mate.

Its beautiful, same with parts of Lake Huron and Georgian bay. Lots of places up north to isolate from the rest of the world.

Finally starting to feel human again. Have been in bed since Saturday and haven’t been outside since. Popping Tylenol and muscle relaxers to deal with back problems.

I miss anything important on teh Monkey this week ?

Any mention of waves and Lake Superior = obligatory Gordon Lightfoot Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald:

White Squall by Stan Rogers is great too:

That’s a bold strategy cotton, let’s see if it pays off

Started examining the issue at hand and am pretty sure this has been leaking for months.

gotta demo a bit more and I can make a list and run down to Home Depot as well as get some replacement flooring

In other news,

the only reason I could possibly enjoy a large city is Facebook marketplace

 

[4xBoy]

I grew up not far from where the video was made.

That is pretty solid waves, my father and I would put on wetsuits and swim in waves like those, I got pulled out once, you don't notice it happening at first then it really is all you can do to get back in to shore.

Damn. Looks like you've got a bad case of KitchenAIDs.

Who the heck am I fooling, I coffee’d. My electrician friend is coming over to sort out the ground fault in our sub-floor heat in the mud room, $500 dollars of joy.

That's not even an option.

 

[jimmydean]

Morning Monkeys.

I have to say us hiring the PM that we did has been amazing. He has worked hard to put processes in place when this place has been working for 20+ years without. He really hasn't gotten much pushback which is awesome and we are in total alignment on direction.

We might actually pull this shit off, it's kinda crazy.

It was really a matter of when, not if.

Your bagels don’t have everything seasoning over the entire bagel?

Every delicious bagel is a precious gift from above. But some sides, undoubtedly, are more precious than others. Seinfeld famously addressed the un...

Dude you don't know how to do this. You gotta casually invite him over then go "Hey, while you are here, drinking up my beers, could you look at something real quick?" Then you get $500 of work for two cans of Old Milwaukee.

I'm kidding, of course.

Heated floor in your mud room?? I don't even *have* a mud room.

LOL, Andy would charge his own mother a $250 service call fee. (But he’s good, is coming over within 12 hours of contacting him). Most electricians around here are a few weeks out, or don’t even answer calls, emails, texts, etc.
Most only want to wire 10k Sq. Ft. New construction.

I see heated socks in my future, or if mother nature could hurry up with that global warming thing, I could save a couple of hundies. That would be the best.
