    Recently I received some information, a report that was very good. Chelsey, and Karen, and my mom, and others had gone out for the Stuff a Blue Goose event, for the first time at Meijer, and with the help of MSP they had raised over $1,000 in donations and 300 toys. That is what you would call good ...read more

The second time was the driver of an Areostar with six people and a heavy 19’ trailer. Both times were adventures. Both times ...read more
