WORTHINGTON — A walk along Lake Okabena’s Sailboard Beach Wednesday night yielded some rather impressive views of the lake’s first significant algae bloom of the season, but by Thursday morning — thanks to a shift in the wind direction — the green muck had moved across the lake to settle in the area around Ehlers Park.

SCOTT RALL COLUMN: Tons of company are to be expected for pheasant season
I have waited 364 days for tomorrow. Saturday, October 13 is the Minnesota Pheasant hunting season opener. Last year I wandered along with a group of mostly new hunters at the first ever Governors Pheasant hunt that was held in Montevideo, Minn. This year, the Governors’ hunt will be hosted in Marshall, only 60 miles away. I received another invitation this year, but am going to skip the actual hunting part of the weekend and attend a dedication ceremony for an addition to a local WMA in the Marshall area. This should be pretty cool.
