That's a Minnesotan for you!!!! My husband tells everyone I can't find my way out of the house - (four room house, not including the porch)!!!!!! You have the same weathermen and traffic announcers on tv as I do, so really, it isn't us!!!!!!
I remember so many people talking about going to Excelsior to the "Valley Fair" of yesteryear and I never got there - I haven't gotten to Valley Fair either yet. Maybe - no, I don't think so!
Merry-go-round at the State Fair or the Old Mill! Is that still there? I love going to the State Fair. I love the Union area and get numbers and win prizes. I still want to win a footstool. I hope you know what I am talking about. You have to go to the fair - every hour, the different unions (carpenter, nurses, teachers, airlines, construction, pass out little number tickets and then every hour on the hour, they draw the tickets. It is fun. Won some darn good stuff there (including an American Flag that flew over the Capitol! Oh, I could go on and on. Anyhow, welcome again! Edie
