Hi. We live in Minneapolis the largest city in Minnesota, USA. It is called the City of Lakes and has "GREAT" bike paths.

Last fall we west on a Boundary Waters Canoe Trip in the wilderness. Everyone appreciated the energy and knowledge of the explorers, trappers and frontiersman after living in the wilderness for a week.

This year we went into the underground Soudan Iron mines in Northern Minnesota.

This year El Nino stopped most of our snow. But we still had fun ice skating, ice fishing, building a huge snow family and doing the SNOW PROJECT with St. Olaf College on the Internet.

Now we are a part of JOURNEY NORTH which monitors animals migration patterns and plants in the springtime.

Here's some stuff about Minnesota:
Bird: Common Loon
Flower: Pink and white lady's-slipper
Largest Lake: Lake Superior; 602 feet
Nickname: North Star or Gopher State
Statehood: May 11, 1858
Tree: Red Pine

Minnesota is a great state and usually we get a lot of snow. And snow in the winter means FUN!
