On
KPCNews.com, which serves northeastern Indiana, writer Lou Ann Homan-Saylor describes her recent Twin Cities trip.
Her itinerary included catching Garrison Keillor’s live radio show, “
A Prairie Home Companion,” at the
Fitzgerald Theater, the
St. Paul Winter Carnival, and in Minneapolis,
Bryant Lake Bowl and the Mary Tyler Moore statue, among other things.
“A Prairie Home Companion” is a highlight: “The show lived up to all my expectations and I did not stop smiling for the entire two hours. Keillor received a standing ovation,” she writes.
On a quick tour of Minneapolis, she finds that “The city is breathtaking with arts facilities everywhere … home to this ballet, that musical company…The lights and sounds of a big city draw me in and certainly make me wonder how I can capture this energy to bring home to my own small town.”
