Wow! Those pictures are absolutely stunning! Makes me jealous! My parents used to live in Minnesota years before I was born, so they got to experience several years of that beautiful snow, but not me! They left Minnesota after several years of living there.........and the main reason they left was because of the weather. Not that they didn't like the snow, but my dad said it wasn't just cold........ It was TOO cold. He got sick of his car freezing dead on the road. LOL! I would love to visit MN some day though..........in the winter. I want to experience a cold winter like that, even if its just for a few days! I want to know how it feels!
