4. Looks kind of black to me right now...
...of course, that shouldn't be too surprising at 5:15 local time during a North Woods November.

10. The old man and I do a lot of our fishing on Big Cormorant lake, as did him and his dad.
Just simply a gorgeous area, and I grew up not far from lake country so I'm lucky.

14. Isn't Big Cormorant Lake further West than Gull?
Up by Detroit Lakes?

Maybe I'm wrong....but I don't recall A Cormorant Lake in North Central MN.

9. They don't call us the Land of 10,000 lakes for nuthin'!
And Minneapolis literally means "city of lakes".

15. I stayed at Cragun's Resort on Gull Lake in 2000.
Our Knowledge Bowl team in high school made it to state and the competition was there. It was awesome. :)
