	Winnipeg would be in the area if you started driving first thing in the
morning. You could get back late at night. It's an eight hour drive from
the twin cities (if you follow the speed limits - six if you don't).

	Considering what we just went through... Your weather is a whole lot
warmer. Even the Yukon and Alaska were warmer.

	Tempting though it may be (our group ceased meeting quite a number of
years ago because there weren't enough members and those who were there
were talking Linux) the difference in the dollars makes a trip across the
border from Canada very expensive. Of course the trip North is cheaper but
the weather is a lot colder (almost -40 last week).

	Yeah. Most active posters are Mac people who don't know any better and
spammers. There are quite a few lurkers though.
