Thank goodness. We go out on the river and pull in at Ellendale. But we wait till Illinois goes home. Late afternoon on a Sunday, nice and peaceful and most of the wave runners are gone. I HATE those contraptions! No respect for those of us that enjoy a leisurely trek up and down the river.

Rusty, I'm with you, let the jerks play in the big puddle and leave us little ones be.

Let the noise begin! I am only commenting on those idiots who exhaust without using a muffler on those big engines. Go to the middle of the lake and have at it, leave us residents along the shoreline at peace on the weekends.
