You can feel the spring in the air. You hear it with the birdsongs.
You NEED to get out! Out of your closed-up-all-winter house.
Come fly with me to the Wright County Parks. Get great information for late winter and spring programs at www.co.wright.mn.us/department/parks/parks.asp
You can also make a reservation for your family get-together, reunions, work picnic or other fun summertime events. Reservations are being taken for Beebe Lake Regional Park (near Hanover-St. Michael), Otsego Park (near Elk River) and Clearwater/Pleasant Regional Park (near Annandale). A fee is charged for the reservation. To reserve a shelter, call 763-682-7693 or use the link above.
As a realtor, I often wonder what people are thinking. And no matter what your occupation, I am sure you do, too.
Here are some fun quizzes that help you find out what you are thinking.
And, some of them might show inherent biases toward gender, race, weight and other touchy subjects. (I would love to send this to the House Republicans and Rush Limbaugh, for instance, but more on that later.)
Test yourself. No one is watching and recording…..or are they?
http://www.mensa.org/workout This is presented by the brainiacs. But, it certainly won’t qualify you for membership. That test is a lot harder.
http://www.queendom.com/ has a great work style test and a self-esteem test that might be interesting.
As of right now, I need the www.tickle.com typing test. For the life of me, I can't type today.
And, of course, there is the Jung test...... http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
Have fun with this. No one is watching....or are they?
The Creamery Antiques in Albertville Minnesota is Having Its Annual St. Pat's Sale starting March 10 through March 17th.
Everything with only a couple of exceptions will be 17 percent off.
Ron Marshall should be writing this post since he has three booths there, but he is taking some time away from ActiveRain for personal reasons.
But, everyone should come and check out the Creamery. There are quite a few stagers for nationwide stores that come through this shop on a regular basis getting inventory for store windows and displays so you know that there is a wide selection of great inventory.
I will have to make a stop over there soon to see what they have because I collect all kinds of things, plus it is a great place to do some early Christmas shopping for one of a kind gifts.
The Creamery is located in Albertville just off Interstate 94 on Large Avenue. Just opposite Highland Bank. Hours are 10 AM to 6 PM, and remember the sale starts March 10th with 17 percent off!
Have a great week!
