11 Reasons We Are Thankful For Living In Minnesota
Today it is a tradition to take time away from everyday life and reflect on the things were are grateful for, and one of those things is undoubtedly our home state. Minnesota is an amazing place, and there are so many reasons to love living here, but a few consistently stand out above the rest.

Even when it's cold, Minnesota is full of spectacular scenery, and nothing can stop true Minnesotans from getting outside and taking it in.

The Twin Cities are home to a unique and fantastic culture, rich in the arts and filled with one-of-a-kind businesses.

Our small towns are the true heart of Minnesota.

We are incredibly lucky to have a community of amazing people. Minnesotans are family-oriented and yes, when it comes down to it they are nice.

Not to mention the fun activities that come with each.

Thanks to our 11,000 plus lakes. These only add to the wonderful scenery.

And we live longer, healthier lives - in part due to this focus on health in our community.

So everything from our local ingredients for home-cooked meals to our restaurant food is delicious and one-of-a-kind.

We work hard to preserve our precious land.

We have so many jobs, and so many fantastic companies in our own backyard.

From the State Fair to the Winter Carnival, Minnesotans never run out of spirit.
Whatever your favorite reasons may be, I hope you can take some time today to appreciate the beauty of Minnesota, and how fortunate we are to be living in such a wonderful community.
