Resource of the Month: Legacy Letters

What do you love most about Minnesota? Here's a chance to speak out. 1000 Friends of Minnesota and Twin Cities Public Television have created short videos about what people treasure most in Minnesota. One of the first is a testimonial by Carolyn Carr to the beauty of the Mississippi River gorge.

View these videos, the "Legacy Letters," online at www.1000fom.org.
