Since I'm not native to Minnesota, and even after 30+ years living here, there is still a lot of uncharted territory and places to visit right in my own backyard, and within an hour driving distance.
We don't paint and build every waking hour around here, we do take time to play, and when I find something away from DIY that I think my readers will enjoy I share it.
One of the places that is not uncharted territory is the Mall Of America. When it first opened its approximately 600 doors, we went there often to shop. My daughters went for the clothes, my sons everything else.
