Minnesota

Minnesota, hail to thee!
Hail to thee, our state so dear,
Thy light shall ever be
A beacon bright and clear.
Thy son and daughters true

Will proclaim thee near and far,
They shall guard thy fame and adore thy name;
Thou shalt be their Northern Star.

Like the stream that bends to sea,
Like the pine that seeks the blue;
Minnesota, still for thee
Thy sons are strong and true.
From the woods and waters fair;
From the prairies waving far,
At thy call they throng with their shout and song;
Hailing thee their Northern Star.

  1. Beautiful! I know this sounds crazy but I am actually a bit jealous that Janet is moving to Wisconsin and living our midwest dream. HOWEVER my son said yesterday...'this place is nice how bout you stay awhile?' Words of wisdom for sure. I spotted a couple of 'FALL' containers yesterday and added them to the collection of boxes in the house. Hopefully I can organize and decorate this week since fall is my fav too. We must be BFFS. xo
