Who would you like to see run for Senate now that @smith.senate.gov has decided to call it a career: If Tim Walz doesn't run for Governor- it'll be an interesting two years for the DFL!

Taking a tour of people to Greece this fall - October 12 for 11 days! It's group travel, I've done this in Banff and Portgual - it's a blast. I was skeptical of the group thing, but I love how everything is taken care of. Plenty of time to do your own thing too. gateway.gocollette.com/link/1264052

Good news for Sean Sherman and his North American Traditional Indigenous Food Systems non-profit: NATIFS has bought the former Seward Co-op Creamery at 26th & Franklin and they'll open a counter-service BBQ called ŠHOTÁ. Will "eliminate colonial ingredients like wheat flour, cane sugar, and dairy"
