Notebook
May 10th, 2013 by Gary Osberg

Good morning from Collegeville,

Today is a bright and sunny day in central Minnesota. The fishing opener is going to be a challenge for many in northern Minnesota. I should call Woody and ask how thick the ice is on Rainy Lake. The Osberg Brothers annual fishing trip has been moved up to the second week of June. We are going to Brindley’s Resort on Leach Lake once again. I would like to return to the tradition of Woody’s just because of the ambiance. He has a bar under the suite of rooms that we use and an ice cream shop across the street. Woody is a character and his brother Spike, a local writer, is a great conversationalist also. Fishing trips to me are less about the fishing and more about the “sitting around the hearth”.

The APHC show this week is live from the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. Special guests include Music City all-stars The Time Jumpers, fiddle virtuoso Stuart Duncan and singer Suzy Bogguss. The Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott and Fred Newman will back Garrison up. The News From Lake Wobegon is sure to entertain. Enjoy the show.

Don’t forget Mothers Day. I will be at Ritsche Auditorium tomorrow night working an MPR table. For ticket information go to www.stcloudsymphony.com
