More Minnsota


While driving to various friends and relatives I got to see lots of wildlife.  I saw lots of turkeys and they can move fast when they want to get away from you.  I wish I could have gotten a picture of the more than two dozen that crossed the road in front of me.  It was hilarious to watch because they followed right behind each other single file.  I saw dead porcupines on the road and a live coyote that insisted on crossing the road in front of me.  An eagle rose out of the ditch and almost hit the windshield in his effort to skeedaddle.  I thought I only had to worry about deer and traffic.

At one friends house it snowed so I had to get a picture.  It's nice to have a reminder of why we left Minnesota.  I love the lake view but it comes at a cold price.  We have been starting to look for a house somewhere warm like Arizona.  Prices are skyrocketing so we aren't sure now when we will be able to afford something decent.  It's surprising because we are looking at very small places like 1200 to 1400 sq.ft. with a very small yard.  We are seeing prices go up by as much as $50,000 or more since we first started to look last year.
