We have some former Minnesotans up here. Couldn't take the heat of the summers down south any longer. Fifty or eighty years ago the Feds even offered free farmsteads north of Anchorage to those of north europe ancestry if they would come and farm some. They came, but the effort has kind of faded. Economics, I guess, although the land is okay for dairy and some crops like barley and potatoes.

"Couldn't take the heat of the summers down south any longer."

I can relate. It's hot, humid and miserable. And let's not even get into crowded freeways and such. I'll take cold any day, at least you can get warm. There's only so much clothes to take off.
