mn lakeshore realtor: Don't Swim In a Minnesota Lake--YET!
- 04/25/12 06:38 AM
Minnesota's state motto claims we live in the land of 10,000 lakes, yet there is actually over 12,000 in this great northern state. However, one thing is for certain; all MN lakes are all too cold for swimming in the spring. This March marked several record breaking temperatures in the high 70's and I know more than a few Minnesotan's were tempted to turn on their central air yet a quick jump in the lake could have been deadly. It is normal for air temperatures in April and May to occasionally be as warm and sultry as August, making the … (1 comments)

- 01/06/11 02:38 AM

Whether you are a novice, first time buyer or someone who hasn’t purchased a … (7 comments)
