And to think I live five or so minutes from most of these lakes (Fox Chain) and have to look at soft water.....how sad...oh well, I'm sure the wife has something for me to do..

I c no ice in our future for a long time. http://www.weathertrends360.com/Graph/30day/ST3570/20111214000000

While thats entertaining. I would place my kids college fund on the fact that we get more than one 10 degree low day before jan 14.lol I barely trust a 5 day. They change so fast.

Been out there 2-3 times not cost prohibitive I didn't think.  Got off season rates at hotels.
Food is cheap.  No good coffee places.
