You must drive really slow. I can get into downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul in about 20 minutes. Compared to where I lived in Maine and New York, this is definately not the boonies. If you're 20 minutes from an Interstate and a majority of your neighbors are farms or gravel pits, then you're in the boonies. You city slickers need to get out more. Nate
