“Clean up in aisle five” took on new meaning last weekend for a north Iowa grocery store. Mason City Police Mike McKelvey says they were notified shortly after 11 AM Sunday (Nov. 1) that a large buck had just crashed through a window at Hy Vee East on South Illinois Avenue. Callers reported the deer was running around in the dining area of the store and that a five-year-old boy was injured and bleeding from his head.

Long-awaited animal shelter nears fundraising finish line

The wait for an animal shelter in Steele County has stretched on longer than anyone expected, but the volunteers guiding the project have announced they’re finally close to meeting their goal. After several years of fundraising, they hope to have the shelter up and running soon. Construction is nearly complete on the facility, which stands next to Lake Chase Dog Park. Steele County Humane Society board members Liane Peterson and Deb Singelstad predicted an opening date early next year. Although it was originally budgeted at $2 million, repeated delays and soaring construction costs have pushed the actual price tag closer to $2.4 million. More than once, construction has paused to allow fundraising to catch up. They’re currently seeking “a couple hundred thousand” to finish the building, purchase furnishings and fixtures and give them the initial operating funds they need. Singelstad said that even now a handful of large donations could advance the project’s timeline. “Once we get open, it’s going to be a big asset to Steele County. We’ll be able to house these animals that need help,” she said. Crews are in the third and final stage of construction, installing ceiling grids, electric fixtures, kennels and other necessities.

Mayo Stage Door raves about Chicago

From November 19th through the 22nd, Mayo Stage Door will present “Chicago Teen Edition,” directed by Mrs. Amy Monson, with assistant directors Jennifer Humke, Aaron Cole, Troy Kowalski, and Megan Shelley. The production is filled with murder, jazz, and a surprising amount of whimsy. The company is working hard to make sure that lights are in place, costumes are on point, and voices are in tune. Most people assume that theater just comes together eventually, with classic sayings like “the show must go on,” but student leaders working behind the curtain know that there’s a lot more work to be done than what meets the eye.

This Minnesota Chocolate Shop on the Mississippi Is Still Making Fresh Chocolates by Hand

A chocolate turtle in this shop can come with its own pitch about real endangered turtles. I love that a candy counter might teach you something while it tempts you. The chocolates are made fresh, and some are shaped to honor the wildlife that lives along the river. Then there’s a back room where the windows look straight out at the Mississippi.

Under Two Hours From Minneapolis Is Minnesota's State Park With Scenic Camping, Wildlife, And Trails

Minnesota is a state rich in outdoor recreational opportunities. Many of these activities are enhanced by (or possibly due to) the vast amount of water in the state. "The Land of 10,000 Lakes" is actually home to nearly 12,000 water bodies larger than 10 acres, many of which can be found within one of Minnesota's 64 state parks. One of those state parks is nestled along the shores of the largest lake found on the country's largest river. However, Frontenac State Park isn't just about water; visitors can enjoy wildlife watching, hiking, mountain biking, camping, and more. Even better, it is just over an hour from downtown Minneapolis, making it a convenient and easy-to-reach getaway.
