Nobody in Minnesota is going to Iowa for Walleye! :slap:

When I'm down that way, I'm like Tim. Focus on the drive, because everything is far between. Maybe Culver's? Not because it's amazing, but because it's nostalgic, and there aren't many in the TC.

Or the occasional Casey's pizza/STH pilgrimage. Again, nostalgia...
A Minnesota Brawl-Eye! :slap:

Excuse me, maybe a stupid question:
Holton made F or Eb Tubas?

Holton made Eb tubas, but way back when most American manufacturers were.
