Re: new from mn

Welcome!

I've been down in Texas for 20 years, but grew up in Shakopee when it was still just a little "Podunk" town! Miss summer nights watching the races out at Elko Speedway.....:driver:

Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread III

Where's the drive-in in the Twin Cities area? I grew up back there (Shakopee) but by the time I left in the mid-90's pretty much all of the ones I remember had already been torn down.
