Spring (ish) Minnesota Trip
I finally got away to spend a week in Minnesota! I hadn’t been there since thanksgiving and even that was only a 2 day trip. It was so nice to get out of town and a change of scenery. And escape from the seemingly never ending blizzards striking North Dakota. This was also my first…
