Jamie and I spent the weekend in Bemidji.
Bemidji is a resort town in Northern Minnesota where Jamie went to college. Bemidji State University looks like a grotty, oversized high school.
The university is on the shore of lake Bemidji. The lake is frozen over and dotted with fish houses.
Driving on the lake quickly lost its appeal. We were convinced that the ice would crack and we would drown…and it would be our fault for… well, driving on a lake. Who does that?
We sampled downtown Bemidji’s nightlife on Saturday night. The first bar had a pair of snow-mobilers chatting up a 300-pound female bouncer. Frizzy hair and galoshes. Indeed.
