Minnesota Lake Cabin

Topics: walleye fishing, fishing As families begin to plan summer vacations, many find that a good family excursion is a fishing vacation. While there are unlimited places to take the family fishing, Minnesota walleye fishing can be one of the most fulfilling experiences you can have with your family.

Saint Paul Winter Carnival ice sculpture Winter can be a special time of year.  Many savor the season that turns Minnesota into a snowy wonderland, and brings with it some special treats. Here are ten to try.  Some are winter-only fun, and others are things that are especially great to do in the winter. 1.  Hibernate…..But Not at Home!

SUB TITLE: “News You Can’t Use” (But, I think it is interesting) AN OLD SAYING AMONG WEATHER HUMANS “Climate is what you expect, weather is what you get.” GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAIN PARK For the third morning in a row, we have a report of seven inches of snow on Mt.

I’m going to be heading up to the cabin for one last trip this season. Truth be told I have been putting off pulling the dock, pontoon, and boatlift out of the water for the last month and well, the ice is coming in. I also have to winterize the pipes and close her up for the year.  So, I will be out of pocket for at least most of the weekend, but I want you all to take a look at this video while I am gone.  This is your assignment for the foreseeable future. Make sure your friends see this

Finishing the open bottle of wine and eating ice cream sandwiches (Skinny Cow!) while reading Harry Potter.But that’s beside the point.So

Tough Break

By Lucas Will I ruined 2 digital cameras this past summer.  Granted, they weren’t the industries leading models, but they were still nice, functional cameras worth a few pennies.  Worse yet, one of them wasn’t mine. During a two-week trip paddling the wilderness lakes and rivers of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Northern Minnesota, my camera went down.  In my defense, I knowingly did nothing wrong. At some point, the dry box that I kept it in obtained some moisture, either from dew or p
