So in the future they might deport me from Minnesota back to Sioux Falls where I was born, or Golden Colorado where I lived when I was two. I suppose the dumb politicians really want to pick vegetables, and do manual labor. How conservative and Xenophobic the country will get remains to be seen. But at least I have ancestry in Minnesota and a state ID. I also have home field advantage and have lived in the state longer than the Governor. Mom grew up in Sebeka and my dad's side of the family in Minneapolis. Thankfully almost everyone in the state has done hunting or fishing at some time, so most of us know how to collect. I've spent most of my life in and around the city of Minneapolis so I enjoy the diverse restaurants and shops. I guess if you are scared of everything you can hide under your pillow. But the variety and coexistence of the people of the North Star State gives Minnesota it's strength.
Of course I haven't been to all 10,000 lakes, and I'm not a fan of fileting fish. But I was a courrier for five years and know many of the roads and towns. That Paul Bunyon statue in Brained scared the crap out of me when I was five, but I did always like the haunted houses that were built out of the trees he chopped down.
