Not much discussion about traveling to this little "separated" section of Minnesota. I thought I'd post a CBS video link that my Dad forwarded. Interesting to get a sense of life up there.

Anyone travel up there before? I did back in August 1983. Slugged along the dirt roads for what seemed like a long time. I remember seeing water come right up to the edge of the road at times...I kept wondering where I was going to pull over if I had mechanical trouble. The video talks about stopping at a shack to check in with border patrol...I don't remember doing that back then. I had hoped to get something to eat, but nothing seemed open and I was losing light, so I turned and headed back.
I took pictures, but the only one I can find at the moment is this one. I've searched for the name of the resort in the image, but don't think it is there anymore.
