In Reply to: O/T Where to go when I retire... posted by John B. on August 17, 2016 at 19:17:08:

I live in the western part of MN in what's known as the heart of the lakes area. It runs from Detroit Lakes in the north and Alexandria in the south and from Fergus Falls in the west to about Wadena in the east.

We can get humid here from time to time but it's not all day every day. The last couple of days have been that way but a couple of weeks before were very pleasant. Supposed to drop back now this next week. The only thing wrong with our tourist season is that they don't tell us what the bag limit is.... :lol: ! Lot of fishing in the area. I can hook up to my boat and in under an hour be at at least 30-40 different lakes with pan fish, bass, walleye, northern and Muskie in the lakes plus cats in the Mississippi and Red on the MN ND border. Isn't much in the way of small game hunting over much of the state but good waterfowl, deer and bear. I'm located about 90 miles from both Fargo and St Cloud. I laugh when I here people yell about property taxes. Compared to CA or NJ they are nothing. Winters according to the US government when they opened up MN to settlement can be "brisk" :shock: ! No, they can be brutal! Getting to -20F in the winter is normal with NO wind chill. Plus we can get a little snow. It can hit as early as late Oct (the kind that's here till spring, not very often) and we can still get nailed in early Mar. But we can in other years not see snow till late Dec or early Jan too. One thing to remember, about 90% of MN drivers totally forget their winter driving skills over summer! Every year! So the first snowfall or two you really have to watch out for them. Lot of tractor shows up here if that's your thing too. The one at Rollag MN is fantastic and takes several days to see everything. Not very high crime unless you live in the cities. We've had 2 murders in the county I live in sense 96 and 2 police shoot outs in the same time. I remember well, I retired from the Army and moved back here in 96.

Today's Featured Article - Ford N-Series Transmission/Hydraulic Fluid - The Full Story - by Llamas. The transmission fluid in an “N”:-series tractor lubricates the transmission, differential, rear wheel bearings, PTO and hydraulic pump drive, and it also cats as the working fluid for the hydraulic lift.
