It's the first day of July - and the first day of MPR's Water Month.
This year we're celebrating getting outside on Minnesota's beautiful lakes and rivers and announcing a new app called "Outside in Minnesota". It makes it easy to get outdoors with weather updates, event listings, and how-to guides.
So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that mention water in some form?
