Spring at the Lake

Beaches, the lake, hot weather, lying on the sand, all great things to do in Minnesota in the summer. But its not quite summer yet in Minnesota. It just turned spring the other day. But people in Minnesota seem to rush such things as the lake and being able to to dig your toes into the hot sand.



Margaret has been looking for a couple of new sling chairs to put in the coach so we were out and about in the different sports stores Saturday looking to see what was available. Well we found a couple in REI that suited our purpose and of course we had to check them out after our purchase. Since it is a beautiful spring day in Minnesota 62 degrees we figured hey we may be rushing it a bit but how about margaritas at the lake!

So the new chairs go into the jeep a stop at the Edina liquor store for a bottle of pre-mixed margaritas and we are off to the beach.

Did I mention it was a bit early for the lake?







Being hardy Minnesotans beach visits require going in the water at least a little bit.





The chairs work great, the margaritas were good, but the water was a bit cool to make for a great beach day. Hey its Minnesota you have to make due with what you have!
