Clint McMahon writes, "This is a great little cafe/bar on the Gunflint Trail. It's everything you'd imagine a little side restaurant in the north woods of Minnesota to be. All though my chili was luke warm, the hot chocolate is some of the best I've ever had. Perfect little place to stop into after dog sledding at the Bearskin Lodge just down the Gunflint trail." This photo was taken on Feb. 17 using a Canon PowerShot G11. (Photo courtesy Clint McMahon via Flickr) link to this photo

The photo on the left is from Craig A. Lance, titled simply "St. Anthony Residential," and taken Feb. 14, 2013, in St. Paul. We don't know much about the photo on the right of the girl with the umbrella in the snow, only that it was submitted to our Flickr pool by a photographer going by the handle HJ-Dub. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jilly323/8257593713/in/pool-878636@N22 (Photo at left courtesy Craig A.
