Greetings from Minnesota

| 1 Comment

Driving around Brainerd, Minnesota today, I encountered this health-conscious bowling Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. Note that Babe is conscientiously advertising a smoke-free bowling area. He is also eating bowling pins the size of small children.

ps--still working on getting the comments back.

As both a Brainerd and a McNerney who has in fact visited Brainerd Minnesota I was blown away when I saw this site. Write on Susan!
