We are always asked by others how we make a living within our full-time RV lifestyle. Rhonda has been creating jewelry for the last eight years, so it only made sense for her to continue to do so in our RV travels of three years.

Lived in MN for 7 years, spent a ton of time exploring the state parks with the Boy Scouts. All 4 you listed here are awesome parks. Hiked a ton around Interstate Park as it wasn't far from my house. Thanks for sharing!
Minnesota is a great state to visit in summertime. Looking forward exploring it. Thanks for the video. 👍
There are nice SP's in Southern MN as well. Along the Mississippi and into the SE corner there are some particularly pretty ones. Frontenac, Great River Ridge, Whitewater, John A. Latsch just to name a few.
Thanks for the info!
Judge C.R Magney State Park is an awesome place to visit and explore as well.
When you can you should go to bear head lake in Ely.
Actually Elk Lake flows into lake Itasca so that makes it the start of the Mississippi,at least according to those whose families have lived there for generations
