Hey JB- Needed to make some changes, so why not go xc skiing every day while you do that, right? The summer is beyond nice- the beaches 10 min from my place are nationally ranked, some folks are fat biking the beach year round, not a huge amount of mt biking unless you go to Grand Rapids, but if you like flat fast road biking in packs its good for that. Sailing, windsurfing, kiteboarding, paddleboarding with surf, camping adjacent to the beach, blah blah. Definitely could do worse. The lake finally warms up in July if the beach is what you are looking for. Dont know if I'll be here long term, so wanted to throw out an invite in case you guys want to check it out while it still is cold and luging is still available. Otherwise keep the area in mind if you are looking for great beaches. All the best to you guys! Will
