Yes, there is a falls in Granite Falls.
The water is way down this year.

 

Hydro Electric too.

 

I've been in the corporate world too long to answer that

 

This is my last visit to my in-laws cabin. It smells like wet dog and month old sweat socks

 

My Mom was there???

 

Allow me to clarify...it smells like they dried a wet, dirty dog withdirty socks then left them to mildew

 

Dog smell... none here, but last night I could tell the difference between garlic and cinnamon and a clean jar for the first time in a week. Got a whiff of coffee when I opened the bean jar this morning, been missing that. Last night's dinner tasted really good, too. But the not covid head congestion isn't letting go without a fight and my energy took a vacation.

Judging from how much of the smoke made it here, must be a hell of lot of forest burned in Canada. Bob will be able to tell us after his ride if it smells, my nose isn't that good yet. Minnesota is under an "unprecedented" air quality alert till Tuesday.

 

O the joy of home ownership . I got the last piece of deck off and discovered that the original construction methods were doomed to fail. This unfortunately are the results of always going with the lowest bid . My general contractor was a good friend of mine but was more budget focused than making sure the job was done right. Clearly this one was not. Not to say that any job will last forever ( see commentary above).



Plenty of flashing but no sealant

Hopefully the water damage is limited to the osb siding.

 

Bum deal, Chuck.

 

Hopefully it turns out ok, Chuck.
