I am beset by untouchable kittens! I have been wanting a couple of kittens as company. Buster is infinitely old, diabetic and she has never had much personality. So when two orange kittens showed up in one of the live traps I set for raccoons, I was delighted. Surely, if I fed them, they would see me as a benefactor, not a predator.
Fathers are complex beings. That’s no slight to them or mothers; they just carry and express themselves differently.

A big THANKS to everyone who attended the 71st Annual Fly-In/Drive-In Pancake Breakfast! Sunday’s weather was picture perfect allowing our community to gather for a delicious homemade breakfast and catch-up with family and friends. There were many activities to explore after breakfast.

The lake is a massive living being. Even its waves sound like breaths: Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. I spent a week on the shore of Lake Superior and for me it is the most peaceful place on earth. Everything else falls away and there is only light and sky and water and the many moods of the great lake.
Amy Thomas’ May 25 letter calling for giving driving privileges to illegal aliens reflects that large part of our society that disrespects the rule of law and national sovereignty.
June Dairy Month is a special time in Wisconsin. As summer starts, we celebrate the many hardworking Wisconsin farmers and processors who make our state a leading source for quality dairy products across the U.S. and worldwide.
Kevin McCarthy and the MAGA people do not want billionaires to pay their fair share of taxes. FPOTUS cut his and other billionaire taxes and raised the US national debt by $7.8 trillion.
MAGAs do not want tax-fraud FPOTUS and other tax-dodging billionaires to be audited by the IRS. That would force them to pay more in taxes.
