March is here that must mean that winter is winding down, I know it’s not over yet! Soon it will be time for the Minnesota State High School Boys Basketball Tournament and every Minnesotan knows what that means. Fro those of you not from Minnesota it means late season blizzard time, It coincides with the tournament.

April is not but four weeks away and soon the Ice Breakers on the great lakes will be opening the shipping lanes. Before long we will be seeing scenes like the one in this photograph on a regular basis. Lets hope the Twin ports has a banner year in 2011.
