By Aaron Holm -
Greetings and salutations Wilderness! At the time of my last walk we here in Minnesota and much of the U.S. were stuck firmly in an icebox with seemingly no hope of ever returning to tolerable temperatures. Weather can be a funny thing, and that kick in the knickers we experienced certainly makes these more reasonable temperatures feel like a cool spring day now don't they? Feels like its time to dust off the grills and bust out the shorts and beach shirts.
