The two Two Harbors Cams were installed this week which is a big step forward.  Now modem, router, ISP, camera calibrations are remaining which shouldn't take too long.

I will keep you posted!

James R Barker Horn MP3 File

For those who never get tired of listening the wonderful tune of the James R Barker's horn, here is an mp3 download for you to copy and listen to again and again. You might also want to use it for a special "Ring Tone" .😀

There is a download button in the upper right corning of the linked page.

Caution,  this is a dead give away that you may be a Boat Nerd!

Two Harbors Camera Update!

Two Harbors cams are ready to be installed, however, the weather just hasn't been good enough to crawl around on roof and mess around with wiring.

Just waiting for some good weather days so the installation can be done safely by the technician team.

Hoping for a May 15th startup.

Thanks for your understanding!

Winter Storm Warning!

Looks like May will arrive in the Northland on the wings of a huge winter Storm.
URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE...UPDATED
National Weather Service Duluth MN
630 PM CDT Sun Apr 30 2017

...LATE WINTER STORM WILL BRING SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATION TO
PORTIONS OF THE NORTHLAND...

.A late-season winter storm will affect the Northland starting
late tonight and continuing through Monday evening. An area of
low pressure over northeast Kansas this afternoon will advance
northeastward to southern Ontario by Tuesday morning. Rain will
mix with and eventually change to snow for portions of central
Minnesota tonight and in northeast Minnesota late tonight or
Monday morning. Snow rates of 1 inch per hour are likely from
near Aitkin and Grand Rapids, to the Iron Range, and interior
portions of the Arrowhead late tonight through Monday morning.
The Monday morning commute will be slow for some Northlanders due
to snow accumulation on roads and visibility less than one-half
mile. As temperatures warm slightly during the day, snow
accumulation will slow down as melting and compaction take on a
more prominent role. Precipitation may change back to rain as the
rates diminish during the late morning into the afternoon.
