Minnesota Aug. 2014

     Ice houses on wheels as big as a motor home. Tow it out, set it down, raise the wheels, bingo. Home away from home. Come  Spring lower the wheels, hook up to truck and off you go. 
     State Fair, it's schtick is fried on a stick. Mashed potatoes, spaghetti and meatballs, corn dog, hydrogen ice cream.  So fun, where else is a really big snowplow in a parade. 
     Nelson town has, Shoot The Minnow. That means a dead minnow in a shot glass of alcohol, T-shirt included. 700 sold last night. 
    Fire hydrants with snow depth poles attached to them. 
     Tornado warnings.
     Hail.
     Really big and thick rain drops.
     Recycle-little is done
     Plastic bags aplenty
     Cannot go far before you run into a lake. And, the trees! And, grass-lawns as big as golf courses.
