I'm printing this to late to participate this year as the auction was April 23rd BUT this years Prairie Warrior Auction raised $135,000.

They did no...

The Shrine Circus is/was in town, Minot North Dakota, this week. It comes every year but this year was very unusual. This was the first year that they did not bring any animals, except some performing poodles. This was also the last year that Dizzy the Clown will participate. Dizzy is a local cel...

The Little Blue Elephant used to be a restaurant downtown just a half block from my office. They did a good business here but they purchased a food truck at the urging of several Event Directors and found they made more money on the road and enjoyed it more than a stationery post as well.The owne...
