Ties to MN:
Lived there my first 18 years of life. My immediate family and
much of my extended family are still there. In my previous job, I was
the Washington correspondent for the Rochester Post-Bulletin, so I
maintained my Minnesota ties by covering news relevant to the state from
Washington.

traveled in the continental United States west of eastern West Virginia
until I brought him to Minnesota to meet my family)
