Whoopsie. Looks like the Portage Lakefront and Riverwalk will be closed a while.

Wow, they can't catch a break over there.

Spent the day at Northwestern University. My co-coach decided to get back into competitions and asked me to be her moral support and side-strip coach. I wanted to go to meet the new N.U. Saber Coach, so it worked out pretty well for both of us.

She and I have been coaching together for the past 10 years and today she earned a bronze medal. Only losing to members of one of the top NCAA women's team. Not a bad showing for a 35 year old pregnant woman who has not competed in in over half a decade.

Bye bye profit sharing

Bye bye profit sharing

If they can find a way to not pay us they will.

When you're are relying on 100+ year old technology and systems... It happens.

You 2 should be out there yourselves cleaning it up

That isn't how profit sharing works. Saving money does not affect the bottom line. Actually having to pay a fine and the cost of cleanup will, so once it happens you will lose money.

Yet another Chicago family fleeing Illinois

Hi, glad to find this forum. We have sold our property in Illinois and are looking in NW Indiana. I hope this is welcome here - I know Chicagoans are fleeing like rats to neighboring states. I swear I'm not bringing our terrible politics with me. I was raised in the rural South, but landed in...

Hey, that's me!

We're looking at unincorporated areas, Lowell, Griffith, even unincorporated Gary although maybe that's not a good idea, not sure.

I'm curious about shooting in your back yard. Like if you're in unincorporated Lowell, surrounding by farms and only a few houses, are you okay to shoot if you build a berm or backstop?

I figure on getting an NFA trust and cans right away to avoid disturbing people, but just wondering if it's legal.

I'm in unincorporated West Creek Township (area to the west & south west of the town Lowell) and we can shoot out here. Keep your bullets on your property is pretty much a golden rule. The county has tried, unsuccessfully, a few times, to restrict shooting to larger property.

I'd strongly recommend you try to find 5+ acres if you want to shoot, more is better. Even 10 acres, if you look at distances to neighbors, is pretty close to other structures when shooting ... and the best bet is to be buffered by farm lands.

Got grass cut and probably sent 100 to 150 rds of various ammo down range in our berm while the boy watched and picked up the brass.

Thanks! We are thinking about a place in Cedar Creek. Property is only 3+ acres though. Two property lines will just be endless corn and soy fields. One property line is a farmhouse / storage and may have someone's residence. There's some houses across the street, sitting on 1-5 acres apiece.

I figure if nothing else maybe we can get away with suppressed .22s. Maybe let my boys shoot squirrels and set up a target range to the north or east? We'd like to maybe dig a pond, I wonder if I can use the dirt for a berm. Just speculating, so if this is crazy talk, just let me know!
