Maybe we should all move to Minasota?

[rivermobster]

No drought there!

 

[Xtrmwakeboarder]

Minasota? Never heard of it.

Minasota? Never heard of it.

Some of us know how to spell...

Some of us fix cars!

family friends have a place in Minn.
Most lakes are unusable until late June. April-May rain after lakes are unfrozen, causes high water and a shit ton of debris in the lake.

My dad has a place on the Chain of Lakes in IL. Too often the entire system is wakeless due to high water levels until late June.

 

[Marios Metalworks]

Setting aside everything a learned in the documentary film titled Fargo. If I’m moving to Minnesota it’s not for the water, it’ll be for the snow planes.


Also can’t forget aboot da tater-tot casserole!

 

[retaocleg]

oooh yeah, you betcha!

 

[wallnutz]

Minasota? Never heard of it.

We’ll when you have cities like Brainerd, how else would you expect them to spell Minasota? Maybe Mobster should get an IPhone so he can get a real spell check

 

[Cdog]

Too many Somalis. Can they swim?

 

[OLDRAAT]

He was probably thinking Mimosas....

My buddy’s boat dock got destroyed the other day in one of those MN storms.
It looked like a G23 did 2 wake surf passes on it.

The water is crazy high this year, but normally the boats go in the water when the docks go in, which is right around this time of year. At least on the lake where the family cabin is located in MN. Water doesn't get warm enough to play in until June, but the fishing is great.

Water is so high this year they can't get the docks installed right now.

 

[retaocleg]

not a painfully slow, dipping mechanism, but close........atleast they dont have sharks with laser beams on their freacking heads.........

 

[DRYHEAT]

Hell no it’s too damn cold even when it’s warm.

 

[timstoy]

My family is from northern Minnesota, better get use to 30 below in the winter and the lakes freeze over solid. But the people are nice!

 

[Roosky01]

I lived in Duluth for a couple of years. I really enjoyed the 2 or 3 weeks of Summer!

 

[pronstar]

Just think of the dozens upon dozens of delta smelt that water could save

And the state bird is a mosquito!

I know right where you are...grew up in the area in the 70's. Jumped off that little bridge a thousand times!

I too was up there last July... reliving the good times with friends.

 

[Gelcoater]

They have winter…

Yep.
About 9.75 month per year

No drought there!

I know a gal that lives in Hibbing.
The pile of snow that builds up all winter from plowing the driveway still hasn’t melted.

How warm do you suppose their lakes are?

And, she has a fire wood shed literally as large as my house. Seriously.

[The Capt]

Don’t forget to peel off the leaches. They have them all over up there.

When I was a college student and new music devotee, there was nothing more magical than traipsing through blowing, falling snow at night with a wind chill of below zero to see a rock show. The empty streets sparkled with fresh snow; its whiteness brightened the dark night to almost daylight hues. Tromping into a steamy club in heavy boots, pink boots, and icicles hanging from our hair was an exhilarating feat. The reward for this Nordic trek was not only live music, camaraderie, and lots of beer, it was also the deep pleasure and comfort of being in an overheated building with all the other hardy souls in the know who braved the elements to gather in this room to anticipate something extraordinary about to happen.
