Country music plays at this dockside restaurant on White Bear Lake. It was our first time here to…read moretry their food and take in some views of the lake. Upon arriving for a first timer...I was confused on the process of getting a table and ordering food. There was no signage anywhere that said...please seat yourself and order at the bar. That would've helped tremendously. I had to ask someone to get some guidance. We originally chose a table in the sun since it was the only one available and waited for someone to clean one in the shade and moved there. They have the triangle sun shades above to shade you from the sun. Drinks - we ordered beers and for myself I ordered a skinny colada. 10/10 on the drink, it was refreshing and delish. Orders at the bar and brought back to our table. Food - I ordered the South of the Border rice bowl with chicken. 9/10 on that item. It was a little sparse on the chicken otherwise it was really good. Flavors were nice. Hubby ordered the pulled pork platter with a side of coleslaw. He was blown away by the bbq sauce which was provided on the table and said this Memphis style bbq is no joke...it's delish. He also wishes he had more meat on his platter. We'll be back to buy some BBQ sauce for sure.

When I needed to buy new ski boots because my previous pair literally shattered off of my feet,…read moreHi-Tempo was there with just the boots I needed, at a good price and with knowledgeable and helpful staff to help me get the best fitting pair of ski boots I've ever owned. So, logically, when I decided that this would be the year for me to finally wrap my head around this whole "snowboarding thing" they were my go-to guy, er.. store. I stopped in mostly just to figure out what size boot I needed, since it is a bit different than fitting a ski boot or a shoe, and walked out with a really comfy, and kind of snazzy looking, pair of boots for under $200.

Sandra checked us in and made us feel welcome and ready to start our trip. Cody is engaging and friendly as he drove us from the end point back to the drop off. They explained the river and gave us a map. There's a few sand bars and tiny islands along the route to stop and have a rest, lunch and lounge. The Mississippi River is wide and calm. As adventurous kayakers, we enjoy a few rapids here and there, which this journey didn't have any. But for those who like a relaxing time on the water, this is the way to go!
