Somebody clever is always coming up with, “National this Day,” or “National that Day.” There are more special days than there are icicles on a cold, blustery Minnesota Day.
For years, I labored under the false assumption I couldn’t vote in Minneota because I have my driver’s license and residence in Wisconsin.
A few weeks ago, we printed a photo from the past about flooding in the Minneota area. The photo cutline said it was on the Merritt property.
While harvest time is an exciting time of year when farmers take in the crop that is their lively-hood, it is also a dangerous time of the year.
Took a trip last week to Branson, MO. My friend Greg Peer of Grantsburg, the best outdoorsman I’ve ever known, insisted we stop in Springfield, MO at the Bass Pro Shops Museum and Aquarium.
I remember when I was a small boy, my mother would feel my warm head, check out my tonsils and say, “I think you have a virus.”
Last week at the Minneota vs. Sleepy Eye football game I was walking the sidelines taking notes so I could right the story of the game for this week’s Mascot.
I was laying in bed the other night and couldn’t sleep so I began to think about my favorite actor and I tried to recall as many of his movies as I could.
The Lyon County Senior Citizens of the Year are Nancy and Ray Pederson of Cottonwood. These two are a remarkable couple that has really gotten involved.
