Following a life changing family trauma, Lisabeth Mackall could have decided to run and hide. Instead, she used the trauma, and her husbands recovery process, to blog her fears and feelings, to express the worry and the triumphs, and to be open about the true life experiences that came with the changes in her families life.

This group is all about 20-something-year-olds stepping out of their comfort zones and trying new things. The idea is to pick one random thing each week for the group to do together, such as attend a dubstep show, go snowshoeing, visit an art gallery, barhop in Downtown Minneapolis, run a 5k, etc. I started this group because I love doing random things. Recently however, after landing a 9-to-5 job, I haven't been as spontaneous as I would like to be, which is why I created this group: I want us …

Another happy hour group, but one with a specific area in mind. If you live or work in or near downtown Minneapolis, this one should be easy to get to and from.  Everyone is welcome though.  Relax after work, enjoy a cold drink, and meet some new people. I started this group since I live downtown but travel a lot and work out in the middle of nowhere.    So I figured there's got to be others who are in the area, but looking for people to join them and meet new people...

We read works of (primarily) fiction with a strong sense of time and place, ideally written by an author from the locale in which it’s set.

So we take our conversations out-of-doors for a walk around our wonderful local Twin cities neighborhoods, lakes, parks, etc. and conclude for final though …
