Something special about moving to a new state is discovering the things that make that place UNIQUE – the things you can ONLY DO in that state.

It’s been fun talking to locals, looking on Pinterest, and exploring the “only in your state” website.

Country Churches dot the rural landscape of Minnesota. They stand tall and majestic and are a symbol of a way of living that once was. These rural churches were the center of farming communities.
