A funny fact about January Wednesdays in Minnesota is that they’re just like every other day of the week. For us, the temperatures have kept us homebound and we’re feeling the stress of cabin fever. When you’re 81, all days become just like … Continue reading
THE GREAT MINNESOTA SNOWSTORM
This certainly has been an unusual winter for us up here in Lake Woebegon. A storm which was expected to drop several inches and create blizzard conditions eluded us. I guess it could be called a “NOstorm.” I find it really … Continue reading
