Daughter goes to school in Minneapolis. I’ve gotta agree on that call. It’s a great town. As for the cold, we moved to Wisconsin from South Carolina, so to us it’s absolutely brutal. Farm chores in the months of January thru March are a real experience. When properly dressed however it’s beautiful. The stars in the night sky @-30 degrees look like sparklers. Summers have a retroactive nurturing effect. The summer works full time apologizing for it’s alter ego.

You have not lived until you've been camping on the North Shore of Lake Superior in mid-summer, and gotten up in the middle of the night to see the full moon reflecting off of the Lake and the trees.

Cheers!

Full Disclosure: watching out-of-state transplants tooling over the snow and ice in 70 mph in their SUVs while on their cell phones, then seening them five miles later in a ditch, *is* entertaining, though.

Cheers!

Maybe I’m crazy, but I love winter in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Did you ever go ice fishing in South Carolina? Snowmobiling? Take advantage of the opportunity!
