Halloween brings to mind trick-or-treating, Jack-O’-Lanterns, goblins, ghosts, ghouls, witches, bats and black cats. It has always been a holiday filled with mystery, magic and superstition. The holiday originated through the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. The festival was to mark the end of the summer harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter to come – a season strongly associated with death. The night of October 31st, the Celts believed that ghosts of the dead returned to … [Read more...]

Celebrate Smile Power Day
June 12, 2019 by
June 15th is the day we observe National Smile Power Day. This is a day for everyone to share the power of the smile. Growing up, one of my mom’s favorite sayings was that it takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile. And I know it was one I used on my own children now and again. But somehow over the years we tend to forget this. Babies smile about 400 times a day, while the average adult only smiles 20 times. And, we are the only creatures on the planet that can smile. … [Read more...]

Minnesota – Land of 10,000 Lakes
June 28, 2018 by
There is a Minnesota tourism commercial that says, “Land of 10,000 Lakes is really Minnesota-nice for 11,842 lakes.” And this number only includes lakes over 10 acres. If we were to include lakes and basins under 10 acres, the number would be even greater. There are so many lakes in Minnesota that many of them are not even named. And many have the same name. For example, there are 115 Long Lakes in Minnesota. Now, while this information is interesting and may even be useful if you are … [Read more...]
