A look at today’s temperatures and you would wonder if it was a Minnesota winter after all. We should be knee deep in snow and wrapped head to toe in wool scarves and Snuggies! But today was a sunny 45 degrees in the Twin Cities north and east metro! It was a snowless winter day in Minnesota that had people are heading for the golf course and dreaming of being out on the lakes! In a normal January, any plan to visit a lake would include boots and/or a snowmobile to get to that ice house to fish. But this winter season has been full of surprises which could be a huge benefit to the astute Minnesota lake home buyer.

Hi Teri,
Oh my, can't believe you had such warm temps, must seem almost balmy in the 40's in Jan! And from the looks of your post seems like you've got just about everything covered when it comes to the MN Lakeshore communities!
