Driveway Update - January 30

We apologize for the lack of regular driveway updates, and we also apologize for not being able to provide a detailed update today. The Wagners, particularly Van, are very focused on the Justin Bieber situation and are unable to take the time to look at their driveway. What will Justin do next? Will he be deported back to Canada? What is up with his hair? Has anyone other than pre-teen girls ever heard any of his songs?

Driveway Update - January 24

Urgent dispatch from the Wagner Farm...

"Last night Tamara took a bad fall on some ice. The ice was approximately 1/2 mile from our driveway. Please keep Tamara in your thoughts. More details coming....."

Weather Forecast

Accuweather provides a 45-day weather forecast, which we assume is 100% accurate because everything on the internet is true. The Elk Toss, February 15, is now within that 45 day range, so here's our first weather forecast for the 2014 Elk Toss.

A driveway update will be posted soon.
