Hey, is anyone else here from Minnesota? I'm living here for the year, and think it would be interesting to talk with some like-minded people from the area!

Default unfortunately not
I lived there for 13 years, though. What part of Minnesota? I recommend checking out Uptown if you can, that is where you will most likely find some of the more enlightened folk in the area...

Blessings!

Michael

Right now I'm in Faribault. Is Uptown the name of a city or an area in one of the cities?

Hello! I'm not in MN but I'm close (Des Moines, IA). I have family all over MN and northern IA. I wonder how many midwestern folks we'll find here.

Hey Brendon,

I spent quite a few years in Des Moines going to Drake; it holds a special place in my heart.

I'm currently living in Wisconsin but lived in the Twin Cities for ten years. Hopefully there'll be more folks from the midwest joining up.

Default Uptown
My favorite restaurant in MN is in uptown, Ecopolitan. Uptown is on Lyndale just south of downtown Minneapolis. I live 80 miles South of Minneapolis in Rochester.

wow, we do have some mid-west folks around here. It's too bad, we seem to be a bit aways from each other. Maybe some more people will show up!

Love

Ya, sure, ya-betcha doncha know!

Actually, I'm in a suburb just outside Minneapolis, but it's easier for folk 'round the world to recognize Minneapolis, MN than random suburb X.

I like the comment about the enlightened Uptown folks. I've been living in Uptown for a few months so I guess that means I'm enlighted

I'll give that restraunt a try sometime.

Yes, frozen solid... My furry dog still loves our early morning walks though (whilst I'm bundled like the kid from A Christmas Story). I really have to wonder what it'd take for him to get cold!

I'm in Crystal, a small, forgotten suburb of Minneapolis. I work near the UofM campus weekdays 9-5, and would love to do lunch sometime with some of Steve's enlightened readers!
