My sister is getting married Feb. 26. We are having trouble locating a venue that can accommodate approximately 300 people, let us cater our own reception and allow music and alcohol. Does anyone have any suggestions for possible venues?
I do hope these people sell their house soon. But if they don’t, I hope they keep posting entertaining ads on Craigslist. I think this one is their second installment.

It doesn’t stink any more (best home for sale in the Duluth area)
If they can’t sell their house with ads like this, there’s just no justice in the world.
Despite the distance between this West Duluth garage and house, the heat from the burning garage melted the siding on the house.

My dog happens to be the least alpha dog there is. He barks rarely. In fact when I got him from Animal Allies I wondered if he had been de-barked because he didn’t bark for 3 days. This morning he barked at something out the front door window.
I went over to look, thinking it could be a delivery person or something. Turns out it is someone who let their dog poop in my front yard and then was walking away from it, not picking it up.

I headed up onto forest backroads way north of Two Harbors, in search of a good patch to harvest, and then of course keep as a closely held secret. Miles off the pavement, in the middle of nowhere on a rutted, rocky, bumpy single-lane track, I came around a curve and saw this…
