@jess, absolutely serious. =) It’s very fun! We have a target board set up in our back yard and it’s actually quite therapeutic.
And @bluejay, we have all the black bears. We see them when we go camping up north but usually they’re just inconvenient because we have to lock our food up in bear boxes and always have bear spray (like super pepper spray) on hand. Our family has a few fun bear stories!
Hi! Not hiding, camping. Wow, I have a lots of answers to give.
First, most importantly (Minnesota pride), @blueJay, we don’t really have a state animal. The common agreement is that it is the gray wolf (we have lots of those up north). However, if you ask most people they would probably say it is the loon, which is technically our state bird. Close enough, right?
For whoever asked, no, I’m not related to Andrew Peterson. Never heard of that author, actually. The joke is that Minnesota is the land of 10,000 Petersons, so you’ll have to forgive me for not keeping tabs on all of them.
@daeus, I have read the Count, but (so so sorry!) it wasn’t really my favorite. My ultimate favorite has to be Little Women by Louise M. Alcott. I tend to enjoy historical fiction (or non-fiction).
Fun fact, @corissa-maiden-of-praise, I am completely comfortable around both chocolate and sharp deadly weapons. I’m a fairly proficient knife-thrower, dagger-carrier, and sword-wielder. I have a feeling I’ll fit right in. Duel, anyone?
So nice to meet you all!
