Default Northern Minn.

If there any forum members living in Minn. or planning on coming to northern Minn. take the time to take a drive through Jay Cooke state park. It is a very scenic drive as well as lots of twisty turns.I took the drive yesterday and really enjoyed it. Just wanted to pass this along.

If you make it to Duluth the drive along the north shore of Lake Superior is also worth the trip. Also the locals are" Minnesota Nice".

The Ely area is very nice, but there is a lot that northern Minn. has to offer. I am sure that other parts of the country have a lot to offer, but some times Minn. gets forgoten. Come check it out, you might be pleasantly surprised!
