Hate to bring you down, but here in the Stateline area, we're still waiting for drier weather to put corn in. Then along comes this pour-a-bucket-on-little-Mary-Sunshine's-head bit of news: "Nice today, but storms coming mid-week."

Good news! You can plan your Dells getaway beginning now: "Lake Delton in the Wisconsin Dells has been refilled after it emptied into the Wisconsin River during heavy rains last summer."
