Fish atop frozen water. Skate your troubles away. Snowbirders may say chilly things about our winters, but we here in MN find the cold offers many a way to BreakAway.

BreakAways come in all sizes and climates. While some in MN spend winters escaping indoors (when they’re not dreaming of flocking south), others find mini-BreakAways like ice fishing a soothing way to evade world woes and find some peace. And if they’re lucky, some fish for supper. While not for everyone, the fishers usually look utterly unplugged and relaxed.
