We still own a family home in Minnesota. That town is 27 degrees BELOW zero. Tomorrow night they are going to hit 50 degrees BELOW zero. You have no idea how happy I am to be here in Arizona instead of Minnesota.
I haven't been back to MN since we moved here. I don't miss the mosquitoes, tornados, hail, humidity, below zero temps, icy roads, and a few hundred other things. I do miss the Boundary Waters, Lake Superior, fishing in clear, blue lakes, cross country skiing virgin snow, snowshoe trips with the the dogs, camping in the pines, and a few hundred other things.
Guess life is a trade off, isn't it?
