We chat with Alyssa Hayes of Explore Minnesota, we love to have them stop by and give us a run down on trips and events nearby. Our favorite events are anything festivals, like 70+ bands in one weekend, a 75th annual city-wide celebration, a Shakespeare festival that is a true summer destination and some favorites for the kids. https://www.exploreminnesota.com
