Garrison Keillor is one of my favorite writers, and radio-personality/host. I am so thankful for hearing his show on the radio, and once again reading his columns here on Salon.
I have shared some of the "Minnesota experience" with Garrison. In the early '70s, my husband and I and our 3 little boys lived on a farm in Minnesota (a disaster for me, a native Californian). So I deeply appreciate the stories of "Lake Wobegon": Been there, done that!
