Minnesota in the summer?? I guess if you plan it right you might just hit that ONE WEEK of summer they have

.
I spent many, many (too many to count) days and weeks in the Minnie Apple. It snows in October and that same snow is still on the side of the road in April with just 5-6 feet more on top of it. One of the fine activities includes going to Minnehaha Falls and listening the the water roaring below the several feet thick ice. It really intrigued my Malamute!
I probably couldn't swing the Hawaii thing but I'm game for about anything else...even the frozen northland.
We once ventured up to Hibbing to see a friend of mine in a band playing at the local Holiday Inn. He told me he hadn't gone outside for 3 weeks and asked to take him for drive. We went by Robert Zimmerman's house (aka Bob Dylan) just because it was there. When you stopped at the stop signs the cloud of smoke from the exhaust engulfed the car and you couldn't see the light change. The outside ambient temperature was over 30 degress BELOW zero.
We had a cold front move through yesterday and it was only 94. We had to shut off the air conditioner at night because now it is getting down to 68.
Please pick somewhere warm but we'll go just about anywhere.
