After 10 Years Popular MN Tubing Park Will Be Back This Winter
Winter. It's coming whether you like it or not. And yes, there are some Minnesotans that absolutely love winter, and when the rest of us say anything about it, we get the "well if you don't like it, move". By the way, we all like the 4 season changes, we just wish winter wasn't quite so long and extreme. For the record, I loved last winter. It was perfect.

Cleveland Township Board Questions How It Might Influence Heritage Trail's Controversial Segment 9
The debate over a controversial extension of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail will stretch on at least a little bit longer.

Township Supervisor Tim Stein had added the topic to the meeting agenda after receiving significant communication from local residents concerned about the trail extension. Stein himself expressed reservations about Segment 9, calling the extension’s estimated $15.5 million budget “obscene” and suggesting he’d be unlikely to support such an expenditure.

It seems to happen so fast every year, and I'm always caught off guard. The days get short, and it almost feels like someone hit a switch. Just a couple of weeks ago it was still bright at 9 pm. Then, it hit me. Last night I looked at my wife at about 8:40 pm and said, "Holy, it's already pitch black out."

Minnesota’s D.A.R.E. Program To Pivot From Drugs to Cyberbullying
Remember the D.A.R.E. program in school? We were never ever ever ever ever ever gonna do drugs, because the lion in a t-shirt (and NO PANTS) told us not to and to also snitch on our parents if we caught them doing drugs, whether it was recreational drugs or prescription drugs. We didn't know the difference, we just saw "drugs" and snitched.
