I can almost see my old house. It was fun to watch the snow, but very cold sometimes. And you could go out there when it was that icy, but it was dangerous. Not that I personally know, firsthand… .

We’re in a typical Panhandle summer here, temps averaging in the mid-to high 90’s.

Looks like a neat place to cool off.
Boston is getting walloped, but in one place, some seem to enjoy living on the ice planet Hoth. Ahh, the UP. Nice to visit, but not in mid February. Fishing in June, Hunting in November, great memories there. The snow is pretty, but I think it would likely make me crazy.
If you don’t mind the cold, can stock up on truckloads of fuel oil and propane for heat, and have a snowmobile, enjoy the scenery.
Anyway, true Yoopers know pasties are something you eat, not wear.
Recipe – my grandmother’s recipe is somewhere around here, but you’re gonna have to make do with this, from Lawry’s Pastie Shop in Marquette:
2 cups flour
2/3 cup shortening
1/2 cup water
Dash salt
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cut shortening into flour and salt, add water and knead until well blended. Form into four balls and chill. Coat with plenty of flour and roll into circles.
Filling
3/4 pound ground chuck or cubed steak
3 cups diced potatoes
1/2 cup each of diced onion and rutabaga
2 tablespoons dried parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Divide into four equal portions and place in center of each crust. Fold over and seal edges. Bake at 400 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes.
Notes: Use lard, not shortening. Rutabaga is also a must. Try using 3-parts of chuck, pork and veal, or even venison, in place of just chuck.
You can also use the lard spread liberally all over your body to keep warm.
Used to live right there, on the lake. Nice in the summer. Not so nice in the winter, as the beautiful winter sights become boring after awhile – the typical leaden sky, wearing long-johns all season, walking around with two pairs of socks all winter, slush and dirty snow. Ugh.
The Lighthouse was a popular subject.
Much nicer in the Summer… .
Fresh fish even!
Current weather here in Florida: 51 degrees. Supposed to be in the 40’s tonight. *Shiver*

I've dedicated this page to helping wake up America. You'll find lots of topics here of interest to American Patriots who wish to defend the Constitution completely and want to see America thrive the right way. We're bitter clingers who support limited government, support our military and veterans, don't mind waving Old Glory, and telling you we love the USA. Are you with us?
