Whoever comes to Minneapolis HAS to check out the MIA. It has amazing collections ranging from African art to European paintings to Japanese Jade carvings. Granted, the pieces aren't all the 100% top quality Monets you're going to find in big cities like New York or Chicago, but it's still really gr…

I spent two weeks in Minneapolis in 2005, and I'd say half of my time during the days were spent here. It's a must for anyone who finds themselves in that …

I'm not sure if this was the first year of this Oktoberfest, but it sure seemed like it. Maybe in a year or two, it will be better, but I doubt I will go back for a while.
