minot: Can there be To Much Fun? Check out Tuesday's Activities in Minot ND - 06/11/18 07:30 AM

WOW! What more can I say?

After voting I'm looking forward to the concert at the Oak Park Amphitheater by River Valley Brass (don't look for me in the 1st row... I don't need a hearing aid yet).
Another GREAT choice would be the MSU Summer Theater Opening Night BBQ. The opening show is Sister Act. Tickets are $20.00. Google for more information.
There are a couple events at the Minot Public Library you may wish to check out. I can never say enough about Minot's very innovative library staff and all the things they offer to the entire family.

minot: What am I doing in Minot, Sunday June 10th 2018? - 06/09/18 02:35 PM
Well, if you are like me you are asking yourself "why am I not camping?". Good question, the weather is absolutely perfect for it.
Our favorite campground is the State campground on Lake Audubon just 50 miles South of Minot.
But back to the question of what is happening in Minot this Sunday.
For starters... go worship at the church of your choice with your family.
From Noon to 1:00 take the kids to Main Street Books for a free class of how to start a succulent terrarium in a Mason glass (then give it to dad for fathers day).

minot: A GREAT place to build. 1/2 acre lot in SE Minot. - 06/08/18 09:10 AM

We just dropped the price on this unique SE Minot property to $26,000.
This is a developed lot with all the utilities to where the house once was. The lot has been cleared and there are no longer any structures upon it. 
Please note that what looks like a driveway is actually platted by the City as a 
Cul-de-sac.
This lot is perfect for the person who wants a LARGE shop on their property or maybe a 4 stall or larger garage.
Current owner purchased this property and leveled the rundown shack, removed the debris, and cleaned up the lot and dead trees. The shack sat on a … (13 comments)

Hobbies are always good therapy and the Stitch Therapy class at Creative Dimensions is excellent for men & women.

I interviewed the owner of Creative Dimensions on Minot Real Estate Today a couple of months ago. Here is a link to that 15 minute radio broadcast.

The Final Import Shop Sale is a joint effort by several Lutheran churches in town who closed their joint retail booth at the Norsk Hostfest (North America's largest Scandinavian Festival). Look for some very beautiful sweaters and much, much more at this sale.
If you can not find what you want at the sale above then head to the Surry City Wide Rummage Sale, I'm plan on it!

minot: Thank You Kayleigh - 05/31/18 04:49 PM

My weekest management skill is, without a doubt, hiring people. However, when I hired Kayleigh I got it right... for once.
I hired Kayleigh as my secretary in 2012 after finding her and her husband the perfect home in Berthold ND. Frankie had just been assigned to the Minot Air Force Base and Kayleigh was looking for work. 
She had not worked as a secretary before but she was willing to learn.  Not to long after finding the right home Frankie and Kayleigh brought Jaxson into the world. She has stuck with me through thick and thin and believe me there were some tough … (8 comments)

Although I have yet to attend a Coffee with a Cop event I've always wanted to so I could express my appreciation for what they do. I'll put that on the top of my list for tomorrow.
Minot is blessed to have several libraries and the 3 I am familiar with are all GREAT. I'm thinking of the City library, The County library, and the university library.
Give Parents a Break Night sounds like a great idea for those who have smaller children.
