Minnesota ia a frgid place to be, but in the summer time you're near a lake at all times. 
Minnesota Fun Facts
State Bird: The Common Loon is a large black and white bird with wing spans of up to 5 feet. Its’ haunting, laugh-like call is easily distinguished over Minnesota lakes.
Grain: Minnesota produces over two-thirds of all natural wild rice in the world.
State Flower: The pink and white Lady Slipper is a variety of an orchid. This flower is quite rare throughout the state and a law prohibits picking the flower.
State Muffin: Blueberry
State Fish: The Walleye is found throughout Minnesota in lakes and rivers and is an excellent tasting fish, as well as an angler’s prize!
Land of 10,000 Lakes: Well, actually there are 12,034 lakes in Minnesota larger than ten acres. Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world. Minnesota boasts 90,000 miles of lake and river shoreline, more shoreline than California, Florida and Hawaii combined. The Headwaters of the Mississippi River are located in Itasca State Park.
When you're not on the lake you might be at the MALL OF AMERICA! Which is being doubled in size right now. Yes, doubled.
