The Gales of November Come Early!

🌊 Surf's Up On Lake Erie Today!

It sure feels like autumn has arrived on the Great Lakes — we're entering the time of year when stronger winds and bigger waves become much more common.

A steady, strong northeast wind will really churn up Lake Erie today. Waves of 5 to 8 feet are expected in the western basin, with a few occasionally approaching 10 feet!

That persistent northeast wind will also push water toward the western end of the lake, so keep an eye out for higher water along parts of the Lucas and Ottawa County shoreline.

Share with someone who loves to see the waves and an angry lake!

It sounds too early, but in retail it is not.
This is an excellent opportunity to buy that diamonds for the holidays - for yourself or as gifts. 2cts of diamond studs just means 1ct per ear. Lovely. Noticeable. Still plenty of room to increase the size to something notable.

And these are Jeff's curated collection of MANN MADE® diamonds superior cut, clarity and color.

Thursday, Friday or Saturday this week are the sale days

“Life is good!” Even in the rain.

After many years of gorgeous weather, the Paul P Szymanski golf outing started with a rain delay. Some folks played cards, others had a few drinks in the pavilion. Others danced in the rain, but after about an hour everyone was ready to get on the course for a very slow game of golf, followed by dinner and a part with Johnny Rodriguez.

Proceeds of the event fund a scholarship for a Toledo Junior golfer and support programs helping people with cancer in our area.

Yark Chevrolet was a proud sponsor of this community event.

Play it loud!
Back in Bowling Green for the NTPA championship! Daddio and I have a tradition of going Friday afternoon. We watch a few pulls, grab something to eat, look around, get our share of Cow Tales® and head back home. Crazy to think that this event brings $37million+ to BG every year in just 5 days!
