We all know our lives have changed. For some of us that means working from home. For others it means we are still working and trying to serve people but how we do that has changed.

Kids are home and wondering when life will go back to normal.  Although our girls are in high school, they are missing friends, activities and normal life.

Even if we can’t be out and about much, we can still enjoy watching Minnesota.  Lucky for us technology is on our side.  We found some great live webcams for things and places all around Minnesota.
