This is our newest unrelenting positivity post.
The state in question is the great state of Minnesota.
To all our foreign friends give a shout ask questions send praise. To our Americans do the same.
Ask questions, share stories, make jokes. Just remember not to be a jerk.
Recall the famous phrase my grandma invented “if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything that isn’t redemptively funny.”
Stay tuned for 24/50 after this one.
The states are in random order based on my whim at the moment. My whim this time was thinking about the first time I saw a wolf in the wild.

Very nice people. Heart of the Midwest.
The Juicy Lucy …. a burger stuffed with melted cheese—was invented in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the 1950s.
Absolutely beautiful place in the summer time.
Minnesota saying….
“Dontcha know” – Added to the end of sentences for affirmation.
“You betcha” – A enthusiastic way to say “yes” or “definitely”.

We spent 2 weeks on Namakan Lake (now a part of Voyageurs National Park). Clean air, pristine wilderness, caught and ate lots of walleye, and the only contact with the outside world was the mail/supply plane once a week. Saw the northern lights for the first time; it’s like being in a place before humans existed.
