Or have a tasty beverage. And it's something of a dream for Josie. I've always wanted to own a neighborhood bar, and we finally do. Mine is just sitting on a frozen lake. Ice fishing is a way of life around here for people. It gets so cold, below zero temps quite often, which allows us to drive and put houses out and drill holes in the lake and fish. When it gets cold enough in the early winter, Josie's husband goes out and tests the ice to make sure it's thick enough. If it is, they can put the bar together and then the ice hole can open. The ice here is so thick that this bar sits on top of it. To come to our bar on the lake, you just drive your car out on the ice and park. We don't have a parking lot, you just park wherever you want, walk in and have a beer. People like to fish and drink beer. And from our bar here, you can do that all at the same time. The local favorite drink is called the minnow shot. People will actually take a live minnow, which is fishing bait, and put it into their shot and drink it. Oh boy. Oh yeah. He wiggled a little bit. Yeah. As delicious as that seafood beverage sounds, people come just because the fact that the bar exists is pretty amazing. People's reactions to this bar are from crazy to they don't understand it, to it's the coolest thing ever. They come from all over the world to see it. It's very seasonal, we're only opened 20 days. If you're ever near Lake Lida, drive out on the ice, park, come into the bar and grab a pole.
