What is one of your favorite things about living in southern Minnesota?
I have enjoyed coming back to my roots (raised in Albert Lea) and experiencing this area as an adult. I have a new appreciation for smaller communities, the importance of supporting rural MN and its greater impact on the region. Southern MN is a great place to live – offering diverse industry, beautiful landscape and awesome people.
