Home to the Minnesota Twins professional baseball club, the venue is optimal for a concert!

5. Canoe and camp in the Boundary Waters.

Located in the Northeastern tip of Minnesota, the Boundary Waters is an outdoor paradise!

6. Visit the National Eagle Center.

Located in Wabasha, the National Eagle Center is home to one of the best bald eagle shows you will ever see!

In downtown St. Paul, the museum is home to a range of exhibits that include but are not limited to experiencing the human body, driving a barge down the Mississippi and looking at the skeletal structures of a dinosaur!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.
