Trees are removed from north Brainerd streets Monday, April 17, 2023, in preparation for a major construction project scheduled for this spring and summer.
I was raised on a farm in western Minnesota where I participated in 4-H, high school sports, and everything that farm kids do for fun after chores. Graduated from Ridgewater Community College with an AA degree and my first taste of newspapering. I worked a summer on the Ortonville Independent as a reporter and photographer.
