View PostGlensheen Historical Estate
When I started researching different things to see around Minnesota that I've never been to before, this place was the first thing that stood out as it's a giant mansion built in the 1900s which was around the same time period as Downton Abbey. Plus add on that it looks like some of the buildings have a Tudor style, which is my favorite style of architecture and I booked myself right away to experience the full estate tour.…
View PostLet’s Talk About… Exploring Minnesota Vacation
Sometimes you just really need a vacation and I definitely was at that point, so I have taken the next week off from my full-time job. And part of the vacation is to catch up on things that have been pushed aside like getting my hair cut, which has been over do for a year. And the other part is to just go explore Minnesota. I've lived here all of my life, but I have hardly seen any of this state other than the Twin Cities and Duluth. So I'm planning on getting out of my little backyard of the Twin Cities and going to many of the cities around the state. And I am planning on also going up to Duluth area for a day or two.…
View PostMinnesota Blogger Conference: Blogging Tips and Content Refocus
Yesterday, October 15th, Harley and I attended Minnesota Blogger Conference which was held at Concordia in Saint Paul. It was an all day event filled of seminars and networking. We attended the following sessions: Becoming a Fierce and Fearless Blogger, Using Writer's Block to Your Creative Advantage, Standing Out in Live Video, How Successful Bloggers Monetize Their Site, Working with Small Businesses, What Bloggers Need to Know About SEO, and How TopRank Marketing Takes Conference Attendance. Now I'm not going to go into super in depth discussion on each topic but briefly highlight some things I think would be beneficial. As well as how I gained inspiration to shift the focus of the blog. Now before you panic, it's not really going to be much of a change more just taking off a tag line I hardly use and don't actually find exciting to write about.…
View PostTrip to Minnesota’s Largest Candy Store
I had a bit of a vacation this week and after getting very sunburnt, I did not want to do anything else that involved the sun. So my family decided to take a trip down to Jordan, MN where the state's largest candy store is located. I thought this was something similar to a place I used to go in my childhood where you could get individual candies, but this was not the case. You could get a lot of different kinds of candies, but you buy each of these candies in bulk.…
View PostVans Warped Tour: Meet & Greets
My roommate, Harley, and I love music and going to festivals. So we decided we would finally go to Vans Warped Tour together. I have never been before due to work or being out of state when it's occurring. So this year I made sure I would be able to go. We decided that we would go to more of the meet & greets, photographs with the bands, and signings rather than going from stage to stage listening to music. Admittedly these were also my first meet and greets ever. I've been to plenty of concerts and festivals, but I've never met any of the artists or groups.…
View PostAfternoon at Como Zoo & Conservatory
On Saturday, I went to Como Zoo & Conservatory with my roommate Harley. To be 100% honest, we were going to go to the zoo mainly to play Pokemon Go, but my app would not sign me in for more than two minutes so I ended up just enjoying walking around the place. However, almost 75% of the people at the zoo were on Pokemon Go and not really watching where they were going in some places. But that didn't bother me as it did for other people... as I wanted to join them to see what Pokemon I could get at the zoo. Whenever I did get on, all that there was available is Magmar.…
