Sometimes the hubs and I just do things just because we can. Visiting Lake Minnetonka was on my list of things to do while visiting Minneapolis. We visited during a dreary day in the fall, so it was far cooler than my husband preferred. Although it was a short visit, I enjoyed the view. We look forward to visiting again soon in the future.

Lake Minnetonka is my favorite lake to go to just because it's close to home and convenient. Lots of gas stations, liquor stores, food places and lots of trails depending which area of the lake you want to go to. I love taking pictures of how beautiful this guy is and the water on a gorgeous day or evening. If you like the fish like I do there's plenty of fish out there whether you want to shore fish or ride along in your boat. It's always a great experience!
