Rumors of sex scandals abound. . .

Rumors of sex scandals abound in the town known for Grumpy Old Men, where the cub reporter found our classmate Tom Ellis and Eleanor in their Wabasha kitchen. Later the couple posed for revealing photographs at an eagle overlook a block away at the southern end of Lake Pepin. Wabasha is not only the home of "Grumpy Old Men," but also the National Eagle Center. The southern end of Lake Pepin (a wide area of the Mississippi and the birthplace of water skiing) is the winter home for many bald eagles. More on the sex scandal later.
