Eastern Minnesota was much like western Wisconsin, in that it was very beautiful. It was filled with rolling hills and winding roads working their way through beautiful farm land. My first major stop in Minnesota was the quiet little town of Northfield.
Why Northfield you ask? Most people never even heard of Northfield MN. But if you're into history like some folks, then you'll know that Northfield is a place of significance. Northfield, MN is where the James and Younger gang attempted and fail to rob the First National Bank. It was their first and only unsuccessful bank robbery attempt.
The town, itself, is a quiet little town just like any other mid-western little town. I liked the place, but I remember the winters and there didn't seem like there was too much to do, so I left.
I'm outta here...I'm heading for The Black Hills National Park in South Dakota.
