minnesota lovin'

i've been in minnesota for more than one month now, and i must say: i love this state. the month has been full of good friends, meeting new people, discovering new places...

one of which was duluth. i've lived in this state my whole life, but i've only been to duluth once-- a trip which went down in Wilson family history. i was really young, but the only things i remember from duluth are these three wonderful things: 1. i had lice 2. dan bit through his tongue and went to the emergency room 3. the person staying next to us was struck by lightning. let's just say this, it wasn't on the top of my list to return. however, i did return, and was more than pleasantly surprised. i went back with a friend to visit his sister and brother-in-law. who knew that minnesota possessed a city so beautiful? the lake, the forests, the shops, the people. it embodied everything that i love about minnesota.

i've also been able to spend a few days in minneapolis, discovering places that i'd never been before and seeing people that i've loved for years, reconnecting with people i'd forgotten about, and realizing that there is no place like home.
