Where in the World is Mighty Hare?

Visiting the only state in the union that boasts the following: 1) giant statue of Paul Bunyan with Babe the Big Blue Ox; 2) World's Largest Ball of Twine assembled by one man;
and 3) the beautiful Crystal Collection Reindeer Farm.

If you guessed the great state of Minnesota, drop me a line and I'll send you a free bucket of lutefisk.

And while on previous trips I have visited all of the charming spots listed above, this outing was set aside for the wedding of my beloved nephew, Jeff, to his high school sweetheart, Jenna -- in their very cute hometown, White Bear Lake. (Can you think of a more perfect name for a Minnesota town?!) A fabulous time was had by all.

Bonus note: While we were there, Al Franken finally wrapped up his party's nomination for his U.S. Senate run in Minnesota -- so he will be taking on Norm Coleman in November for the right to hold Paul Wellstone's old seat. Now THAT will be a fun race!!
