Luxury Shopping Options In MN

If you ever head out on vacation to somewhere coastal such as California or New York, people always seem to look down their noses at us "Midwesterners". Like we don't have the culture of those bigger cities that are on the coasts. As new fashions and trends go, usually it starts out on the coasts and then moves in to towards the Midwest. That's just the way things are. The Minneapolis/St Paul area actually has great culture.
Catch These Live Bands At The Benton County FREE Fair

1 week ago | 1037theloon.com | Laura Bradshaw

Every year at the end of July/beginning of August a staple in the area happens. It's the Benton County FREE fair. And by free I mean there is no admission charge. It's a great time for families to get out and enjoy everything that a county fair is in Central Minnesota. There are events in the Grandstand that will be an extra charge, but enjoying the music on the stage by the beer garden is free. I love that fact.

Understanding Minnesota's Fish Consumption Guidelines

1 week ago | 1037theloon.com | Laura Bradshaw

First of all, I'd like to be honest and say that I don't eat fish. Of course there are exceptions, but really I don't eat fish. Not even when people say "Not even Walleye" or "But this fish fry is so good! You should really have some". Or, the awesome "It doesn't even taste like fish". If there were true, maybe you should rethink your cooking habits. Too much breading?? I just don't like it.
How Census Data Reflects Minnesota's Cultural Shift In Languages

1 week ago | wjon.com | Laura Bradshaw

Every 10 years, a census comes out and asks questions about how many people live in your home. That is the main part of the census. But there are several other questions that come along with the census. They pertain to race, religion, economy, full time or part time work. Kids, education and language are also a focus on the census. Glad we only have to do that once every 10 years. While English is the main language that is spoken here in Minnesota, there are a few others that are also very popular.

People Fear Friday The 13th In Minnesota and America

2 weeks ago | 1037theloon.com | Laura Bradshaw

It's Friday the 13th. Very famous day as an "unlucky" day. A whole series of movies has been based on the concept. I am amazed at how many movies came out of that series. Jason Voorhees, who is supposedly already dead, is like the original zombie. Only instead of eating his victims, he carries a big knife and slices and dices his victims. There was a study done on the most common superstitions in each state conducted by the Potawatomi Hotel and Casino. Casinos and luck seem to run together.
