Pedal Faster!

How would you like to try racing in one of these?

Lund Drag Boat

After the Lund Mania fishing tournament, folks gathered in downtown New York Mills for the Second Annual Boatville Drags, the awarding of the tournament prizes and then the parade. I cheered on my office mates in the "boat" races, watched the awards presentation but I skipped the parade. By that time, I was tired and ready to head to my house. I wanted to beat the incoming thunderstorm, too.

On Your Mark! Get Set! Go!!!!!

Go Fish!

I had the opportunity last Friday to be a spotter in the local walleye fishing tournament called Lund Mania. Fifty teams (all on Lund boats of course!) participated with the winning boat captain getting a 1675 Impact complete with Mercury motor and Shoreland'r trailer worth over $20,000. The second and third place captain also got smaller Lund boats as prizes.

Unfortunately, the team I was assigned to did not finish in the Top Ten. I still had a fabulous day out on Otter Tail Lake, wind and all! After all, a bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work, right? Plus, I ended up winning a $100 gift certificate, hat and fishing towel from Gander Mountain. Thanks, Gander Mountain!

I will have more pictures of the post tournament fun on a future post.
