Minnesota...

Land of 10,000 lakes (and a few wierdos!).

After putting all of our belongings from Chicago into "storage," we embarked upon our grand journey very early in the morning of October 17th, with Indianapolis, Indiana, being our long destination which we would reach well after sunset. 

We would not see Minnesota again until our return on December 15th.  It had undergone quite a climatic change in those two months.   Our tropical bodies weren't quite ready for shock!
