Hey Cat,

Welcome to HSO. The bottom of every post I have typed pretty much tells you how I love it up here.

Where are you & your wife working???

Sincerely,

Fishmeister

Well she doesn't want me to say were she works and ill be starting on sep 8 at a local trucking company. Had to quit my dream job of running a cat977 cleaning up train derailments nation wide, but i think living up here and lake is worth the trade.

Took me over 30 years to figger out it was better to live here than drive 6 hours. Now I can sit in the house when the wind is howling. Or I can fish every day if'n I want. Gettin spoiled!

Give me a holler when you gits settled.

PS. October is my favorite month on Rainy.

Welcome to heaven Cat!

I am lucky enough to grow up on Rainy Lake and lived near a few great fishing areas elsewhere but none compare to Rainy. It is great to pick and choose when to go out and to have so many places still to explore.

All I got to say is this is going to be awesome got to head back to the cities this friday and finish my last of week of work there and be here for good next weekend. Bought a house in the Falls already and just finishing a few things around home and then let the learning start on the lake and hope a few slayings. I'll give a hollar capt when i get settled in.

Welcome. We moved here 5 yrs ago from SE MN and haven't looked back. Not that it's always been easy but the north country has been a very good fit. It was weird at first to drive 6 hrs north and realize you're going home!!
