Surviving Minnesota!

[Rhetts]

I thought Babbitt/Embarrass had the coldest spots. I-Falls has had it's moments as well. But that Laurentian Divide area....woof.

Yeah I think you are right, those are the coldest spots. Didn't I-falls get the name "icebox of the state" or something like that?

 

[Rhetts]

I was wrong. Not icebox of the state but the nation.
From the all knowing Wikipedia:
International Falls is nicknamed "Icebox of the Nation." With 109.4 days per year with a high temperature below 32 °F (0 °C), the airport has the most such days of any incorporated city in the contiguous United States, just surpassing nearby Duluth and Houghton.[6]

Rhetts I'm needing a photo bomb of your Bonnie Hairy Coo. Is she growing big? I see her little face in your Avatar there.

Good day to all. I have not been on this site for a couple days and there were many posts to catch up on.

Ralphie, you may find this interesting. A friend from my racing pigeon club is a big time trapper and outdoorsman in general. He lives in the Minong area and is currently hunting for a large Black Bear. In any case Links has offered him a handsome contract to trap a new Sasquatch for one of their commercials. He is having difficulty locating any in Wisconsin, so I suggested that he scout the Togo are. He is reluctant to go that direction, as he says it is nearly impossible to get a Minnesota non-resident Sasquatch license.

hahaha! Hope you are doing ok Layers, be careful out there!

EJB! Togo is a sanctuary city Sasquatch are protected and hidden from trappers and hunters. We even allow him to vote in the local elections. However, him and Mrs Sas have been on the outs lately and he might just turn her over to the trapper for 30 pieces of silver.








Holm IS lucky still upright or is he resting in the fridge?

I saw this picture on another thread and thought of Lucky and you.

I picked all the remaining tomatoes and most of the peppers in case of frost because I didn't want to cover them.

Hey chickeners - almost time for lights out. I Love Layers - wondering how you are doing tonight after your little spill. And did you say you had a game to play after school? How did the day go?

Where have you been Holms.

Everyone sleep warm.

Ralphie... Lucky is no longer upright... Today was a bad day for him... But everything was quick and painless and he is in the freezer. He has some BIG legs on him!
