St Paul is riddled with fascinating history filled with gangsters, corrupt police officers and caves. One of the best spots to get a peek into this history is at the Wabasha Street Caves in downtown St. Paul. These caves were originally created when the area...
One fun aspect about moving away from home is that when you return, you have a new appreciation for many things that you would have ignored previously. Recently, we have been exploring the history of the Twin Cities, and one of my favorite outings was...
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...
