Lake Calhoun on Tuesday June 7th

Alright - I get it.  We live in Minnesota.  A nice day for us is one where we can feel our toes. But I'll never understand the Minnesotan obsession with the few days of warm weather we do get.  We complain all year about how cold it is - ITS MINNESOTA, Did you forget?!?!  Then, when it randomly SPIKES up into the 100's half the people complain about how hot it is.  The other half run, shoot, kill, sprint, break all traffic laws, ditch work, lie, cheat, fight and scream all the way to the lake.  Sure its nice to be outside - but people need to stop referring to it as 'the beach'.  Its not a beach - its a lake with some sand by it.  Life's A Beach coffee mugs showcase lakes in Minnesota.  Its not pretty, its not majestic, its not calming, its a hole with water in it.  Its Paul Bunyan's backyard swimming pool.  Most people just go to a city lake anyways - big whoop.  You can spend all day lying on dirt with your BFF's facebooking about how great the lake is and look at the TARGET that they are building across the way.  WTF.  We Minnesotans have the ADVANTAGE of having a small summer - less chance for Melanoma and other skin related nastiness.  So next time you think about hitting up 'The Beach'!!! OMFGHFATI!!!!!!! Don't.
