There is a lot of debris floating down the Mississippi and St. Croix rivers so that adds another element of danger. Debris will often float just at or below the surface, Owens said. Hitting a log at high speed could result in anything from a broken propeller to a ruined lower unit -- or worse, serious injuries to those who wanted to enjoy a day on the water. Boaters must always be aware of their surroundings. Fast river currents are more unforgiving and boaters have less of a time to react to a problem, she added. The swift current also makes it more difficult for even an experienced swimmer to swim or stay afloat if their boat or canoe capsized. Anyone heading out on the water should let someone know where they are going and when they expect to return from their trip. During periods of high water on lakes and rivers, boaters also need to slow down and make sure their wakes are small. A large wake could not only disrupt other boaters and swimmers, but also cause erosion along the shoreline. It can create safety concerns, damage to boats and other problems from deadheads and snags, shoreline property loss, reduced water quality and damage to fish and wildlife habitat.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU
I would like to thank everyone who helped put on the 2013 Browerville Days. None of it could have been done without the over 120 volunteers, all of the donations whether it was a nominal amount, a discount or something free donated and those that ran an event during the weekend. We had a lot of new things going on this year and we will work on making some changes to run smoother next year. Please understand that although we get great support on our donations, that alone does not cover the total expense for the weekend, that is why we need to charge a gate fee. Without a gate fee we would have to eliminate some events due to a lack of funds, so look at your $5 or $10 gate fee as your donation to our weekend. I cant thank enough the help and support that many individuals gave up to and over the weekend to make Browerville Days a success. PLEASE thank the following businesses and groups for donating their services or money to help make our weekend a great success. Browerville Lions, Todd Wadena Electric, Browerville Farmers Coop, Central Bi, Long Prairie Packing, Dans Prize, Lakewood Health Systems, RR Donnelley, Coborns, Minnesota Power, Central MN Credit Union, CentraCare Health Systems, Knotty Pine Embroidery & Screen Printing, MN National Bank, American Heritage National Bank, Twardowski Excavating, Konetzkos Meat Market, Prairies Edge Plumbing, Neals Motorsports, Menards-Alexandria, Steves Country Foods, Browns Service Center, Our Neck of the Woods, H.

Strawberries are the only fruit with seeds on the outside. The average strawberry has 200 seeds. Strawberries are the first fruit to ripen in the spring. There is a museum in Belgium just for strawberries. Strawberries are a member of the rose family. Ninety-four percent of US households consume strawberries. Americans eat 3.4 pounds of fresh strawberries each year plus another 1.8 pounds frozen per capita. Over 53 percent of seven to nine-year-olds picked strawberries as their favorite fruit. Madame Tallien, a prominent figure at the court of the Emperor Napoleon, was famous for bathing in the juice of fresh strawberries. She used 22 pounds per basin. Needless to say, she did not bathe daily. In medieval times, strawberries were served at important functions to bring peace & prosperity. The ancient Romans believed that strawberries alleviated symptoms of melancholy, fainting, all inflammations, fevers, throat infections, kidney stones, bad breath, attacks of gout, and diseases of the blood, liver and spleen. Doubtless God could have made a better berry than the strawberry, but doubtless God never did................William Allen Butler Its strawberry season and who doesnt like fresh strawberry pie? Adding the cream cheese layer gives it extra flavor and keeps the berries and glaze from soaking into the crust. Yummo!!!
Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar, spread carefully over bottom of baked pie shell. Cook sugar, syrup, water, salt and cornstarch over medium heat until thick. Add gelatin and cool. Arrange sliced strawberries in shell. Pour glaze over berries and refrigerate.

Blue Mounds State Park bison herd and updated interpretive center give visitors a glimpse into past
New and refreshed displays help tell the story of bison at Blue Mounds State Park and the relationship the animals have with the native people of the plains in the southwestern corner of Minnesota, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) said. Bison are part of our heritage in the southwest part of the state, said Alex Watson, DNR regional naturalist. Blue Mounds State Park plays a role in preserving that heritage through our bison herd and interpretive programs. The interpretive center features new artifacts, updated displays and an 11-foot-by-12-foot bison painting by muralist Greg Wimmer. Watson hopes to continue updating exhibits and adding information through the summer. The center itself was once the home of author Frederick Manfred. Manfred designed the structure, which features a glass front overlooking the prairie landscape. An outcropping of Sioux quartzite forms the back wall of the house. It was important for Frederick to experience the landscape he wrote about, Watson said. So its fitting that visitors can learn about bison in our interpretive center and then go out and see our herd on the prairie. An estimated 30 million to 60 million bison once roamed much of the country but were hunted to near extinction in the 1800s. Bison returned to the area in 1961, when three animals were brought to Blue Mounds State Park from Fort Niobrara Wildlife Refuge near Valentine, Neb. The parks herd is maintained at about 75 adult animals so they do not overgraze the 530-acre prairie. Though we will never see bison roam freely on the plains, we want to help visitors get a sense for what those times must have been like, Watson said. There is no charge to view the bison or visit the interpretive center at Blue Mounds State Park, but a vehicle permit ($5 daily or $25 year-round) is required to enter the park. For more information on Blue Mounds State Park, visit www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_park s/blue_mounds/index.html or call the park at 507-283-1307. For more information on bison, see w w w. d n r. s t a t e . m n . u s / m a m mals/bison.html. Blue Mounds State Park is four miles north of Luverne on U.S. Highway 75. Turn east on County Road 20 and go one mile to the park entrance. Funding for updates to the interpretive center were made possible through the Parks and Trails Fund, created after voters

ASK A TROOPER
By Sgt. Jesse Grabow of the Minnesota State Patrol LOCAL TRAFFIC ONLY ROAD CLOSED NO THROUGH TRAFFIC It is the time of year where road construction mandates temporary signage restricting or detouring traffic. I contacted MNDOT Engineer Scott Thompson to define what it all means. ROAD CLOSED TO THRU TRAFFIC or LOCAL TRAFFIC ONLY tells you that you NEED to take a different route and should only cross the barrier if you have no other option to reach your destination within the restricted area. For example, if the driveway to your home, worksite, a friend or relatives home can only be accessed on the restricted roadway you are LOCAL TRAFFIC and NOT THRU TRAFFIC. If your destination is outside the restricted area, you must take another route and not go THRU. ROAD CLOSED means just that; you cannot enter or cross the barrier; if you try you may not get through, you may damage road work, get stuck and/or be subject to a citation. MNDOT explained that it would not typically put up a ROAD CLOSED if access was needed. Even emergency vehicles generally have to re-route around a closed road. MNDOT DETOUR routes use paved roads, which can handle the weight of the detoured traffic while not violating load restrictions, and they focus on the shortest and most direct route. For those thinking they know
better than MNDOT keep in mind that if you stray from the detour odds are great you will arrive at a dead end, get stuck on gravel roads, get lost, and travel further. When drivers go off detours MNDOT and the State Patrol begin getting complaints about the unusual traffic, vehicles using driveways to turn around and people requesting directions. TRAFFIC CONTROL CHANGE AHEAD warnings are placed in advance of to a change in traffic control devices. For instance, if stoplights were removed or stop signs are added, deleted, or set up differently. These signs are important to heed, as you do not want to go through an intersection assuming the traffic control is the same a habitual response to these intersections or road changes could be tragic. It is a violation and a citation can be written if you violate these lawful directions. Fines can be over $100. If winter and you cross a barrier or gate to access a winter storm closed roadway you will be in for a fine and a bill if you need to be rescued - up to $10,000. MNDOT seriously considers what signs to put up and where you can trust that they have done their homework and it is in the drivers best interest to regard posted signs. If you have any questions concerning traffic related laws or issues in Minnesota send your questions to Trp. Jesse Grabow Minnesota State Patrol at 1000 Highway 10 West, Detroit Lakes, MN 56501-2205.

Two little clouds one summers day Went flying through the sky. They went so fast they bumped their heads, And both began to cry. Old Father Sun looked out and said, Oh, never mind, my dears, Ill send my little fairy fold To dry your falling tears. One fairy came in violet, And one in indigo; In blue, green, yellow, orange, red, They made a pretty row. They wiped the clouds tears all away, And then, from out the sky Upon a line the sunbeams made, They hung their gowns to dry.
