Default Sunken Logs/Marked Gas

Even if the stumps don't get you....there are huge waterlogged logs
running
through both lakes at any depth that USED to be chained down to the
bottom when the lakes were formed....

Hmmm, I guess I should take my SCUBA gear along when I head out on the
lake with the pontoon boat. I might find a couple of OLD logs that
are good for Lumber recycling or maybe I can trade 'em off
for gas money ;-) BTW, I found two local places that sell MARKED gas
w/o the highway tax (-45 cents Gal) for $ 4.91 Gal. One is 87 Octane
and the other (farther away) is 92 Octane. THE local marina is
charging ( $ 1.79 liter, CANADA. eh) = $ 6.76 Gal. for the Hi Test
gas !! Leaving for Iowa on Wed. to P/U the boat.





Those logs have been soaking in lake water since the mid 1930's. I doubt
you can pick them out of the water in one piece anymore.
