Ahh, I've eaten many of them in the U.P. Thre was a great pasty shop in Marquette that I used to stop at. Another near Calumet.
When you come over the Mackinnac Bridge in the UP there are pasty shops about every few feet.
Someone not knowing what they are, might wonder
or are those 'other kind' spelled differently?

They even sell them in the "Stop and Go" type gas stations, along with the hotdogs on the rolling warmers!Originally posted by packinpatlandAhh, I've eaten many of them in the U.P. Thre was a great pasty shop in Marquette that I used to stop at. Another near Calumet.

I went to school at NMU, my husband MTU. It's been a long time since I've heard (or read) someone mention Calumet!

You've been away too long. It rarely snows in early October, and the average temperature for the month of October is 3 degrees less than Boston (same for October 7th specifically).Originally posted by packinpatlandAhhhh, not so. We have the 'warming of ocean breezes'..............not the sometimes 'lake effect snow'!
I think your time away has clouded your memory--kind of like when the old man talks about walking 5 miles to school every day when he was a kid.
Kind of interesting. The average temperature in October is actually the same in Minneapolis as Boston. It's actually 2 degrees warmer in Minneapolis than Boston on October 7th. Of course, Boston doesn't get the brutal cold in the dead of the winter--thanks to the Atlantic.
October 24th looks like the first day where Boston is actually warmer on average than Minneapolis. Mid-November is when the temperatures start getting much warmer than the Upper Midwest."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
