Advice from a pine riverian

So. 1. couldn't be more excited about the resurfacing of the blog.  i actually have several un-posted entries just waiting to find their glory in cyberspace.  but more importantly 2.  i feel as the current pine river resident that i should throw a little advice towards the others that will be joining my quaint yet extremely small, close minded community.  since i already used numbers...this list gets letters:

a. yes i still have my obama bumper sticker on my car. so if i drive and we go somewhere yes we will get dirty looks. especially at fleet farm.  chris. don't wear a wisco shirt there either...i once had to listen to my friend sean talk his way out of a wisco/mn argument at the same fleet farm.

b.  i once was called a stupid hippie at moonlight bay in crosslake...i was denied access...word to the wise. don't wear tie dye shirts to moonlight.

c.  if you get pulled over be sure to say "i grew up up here and now had to move to the cities for work" they like that better than "i am here on vacation staying at a lake house".

d.  the only acceptable coffee drink to get at pine peaks restaurant (the good breakfast place in crosslake) is regular, black, straight out of the pot coffee.  no lattes. no mochas. no cinnamon dolce creme frappuccino with extra foam and extra cinnamon.  if you disobey, your eggs will for sure have spit in them.

e.  lastly slow the fuck down.  we do not need a schedule. you don't need to get up at a certain time, go to bed at a certain time or start drinking at a certain time.  it is ALWAYS 5:00 pm somewhere and the lake is the place that it is always 5:00 pm.

i am sure more will follow. but this will get you guys in the front door.  with any luck the girl i graduated from HS with that tried to rob a bank with a bicycle as a getaway vehicle won't be out and about this weekend....but if she is...just remember if you throw something at her tire, she will fall and return to you your stolen items....

  1. Good to know. I guess I will have to rid my bag of my Obama flair, my tie-dye swimsuit, and my Wisconsin t-shirt that says, "Nothing tips like a cow." And my Edina sun hat. As for the lattes, I am not sure that is possible. How would they feel if I brought in my own latte that I made from the expresso machine I am going to bring that plugs into Sprout?
