Looking for an adventure
I read an interesting article this morning. In my quest to be a better Vikings fan, I thought I’d do a little reading up on my favorite players. Up first, my number 1 pick: Jared Allen. The article is was written for Sporting News. It follows Jared, his brother and an expert hunter through Allen’s first bear hunt. While talking about Allen’s crazy adventures, and from what I...

Exploring the Cities
It was brought to my attention that I didn’t specify the names of the places I went this weekend. Okay, I’ll share, but all of you can’t all show up there at once and make it impossible for me to get in next time. Promise? Okay, I’ll tell you. The bar I went to was Bootleggers.I will say this, I felt a bit under-dressed in jeans and an nice top. A huge majority of the...

I'm baaaaccckkk
Ok, so it’s been almost two months since I’ve posted, and I’m scared. Yup, scared. Why?  Well, for a few reasons. One, I put my blog on hold for the summer, and if I’m blogging again, it means summer is almost over. That always makes me sad. The summer, so far, has been great. I’m going to be moving into a fantastic apartment, my job is going really well and I’m...
