Lake McBride, Iowa
I like Iowa. It’s fricking cold there right now, but I like Iowa. I know Iowa is not the “Can Do” State, but they seem to have that attitude. Iowa is consistently one of the top collegiate sailing teams in the Midwest. And that is pretty damn amazing for a landlocked state. I’m proud of them, and I’m not even from Iowa!!

Through the trees, down the slope, Lake McBride is frozen over

This is really a remarkable boathouse.
They must be REALLY well-funded.
