The Walker Art Center is located near downtown Minneapolis and includes a museum and sculpture garden. Exhibits consist of contemporary visual arts and design, and in the summer, the outside sculpture garden also includes an artist designed mini golf course. I always love exploring museums and...
Minnesota isn’t called the “Land of 10K Lakes” for nothing—in fact, there are actually more than 10,000 lakes throughout the state. Also, Minnesota has more shoreline than Florida, California and Hawaii combined! All of this means that growing up in Minnesota equates to spending the...
Let me start off by saying we aren’t really fair people; something about fairs usually rubs me the wrong way. That being said—I don’t know what it is about the Minnesota State Fair, but we always have a great time. Maybe it’s because of the...
We are not club people at all. Perhaps that might be one reason why Las Vegas had always been low on our priority list—I always thought there wasn’t much else to do there besides clubbing and gambling. So, when we booked our tickets, I decided...

If you happen to be taking a road trip through the Florida Keys, keep your eyes peeled for a small building that goes by the name, The Turtle Hospital. This little green building is the home of the first ever turtle hospital. In fact, it...
Finding nature in or near a city is always a highlight for us. We love walking around parks, lakes, gardens and all that good stuff, so a trip through Assiniboine Park gave us just what we needed after a day full of exploring Winnipeg’s street...
