Sometimes it’s hard to social distance when something is so cute you just can’t stay away. Case in point, the newest addition to my friend’s animal rescue near New Rockford. A pair of orphaned ducklings, named Simon and River. They were rescued here in Fargo and moved out to the barn outside New Rockford. They’re described as equal parts…
We showed you what restaurants are looking like in Minnesota this morning now that they can serve customers inside. Things looks a little different than they used to. Along with A 50 percent capacity limit, restaurants workers are required to wear masks. Customers are encouraged to wear masks. Plus, reservations are required for any restaurant. But even with all…
People can dine-in at restaurants and bars again in Minnesota starting June 10th. They state is loosening its COVID-19 restrictions, allowing indoor dining at restaurants up to 50 percent capacity. Restaurants had been allowed to do outdoor seating since June first, but that can be a crapshoot, as yesterday’s weather showed. Along with the 50 percent capacity limit, restaurants…
It’s been rough missing out on seeing people close to us during COVID-19. I haven’t been able to hang out with my Big Brothers/Big Sisters Little, Garrin, in about three months. I miss the kid! But BBBS rules say Bigs and Littles aren’t even allowed to have outings right now. The only time I’ve been able to even see…
Restaurants can finally open up for indoor dining this Wednesday. Until then, a lot of places are doing just takeout and delivery. It’s a challenge for an established place, let alone a place that just opened during the pandemic. I went and checked out Swing Barrel Brewing in Moorhead for the first time over the weekend. They just opened…
We’ve been trying to navigate through a pandemic. Now we have worldwide protests addressing centuries of mistreatment of black people in America after the death of George Floyd. Some of those have led to violent clashes with law enforcement. Social Media amplifies a lot of the strife. It can feel like you’re mainlining misery, and a lot of times…
WEST FARGO, N.D. – Every other Wednesday, West Fargo will be bringing in food trucks from 11:30 to 1:00pm The plaza is trying to implement all the social distancing guidelines by having hand-sanitizing stations, wiping each table after each use, limiting the amount of people at each table, and having marked spots and lines. “It’s a great way to get…
When everything started shutting down in mid-March, we were literally still in the last days of winter. We still had snow storms and freezing temps to deal with. But now, two and a half months later, we’re setting records in the upper 90’s. That means we even have to reconsider our social distancing practices. Gyms are still closed in…
It kind of feels like we’re in that weird in-between part of the pandemic where things are starting to loosen up, but we’re not sure whether or not it’s OK to do things we used to not think twice about. Case in point: I was surprised to run across a garage sale this weekend here in the metro. But…
Social distancing recommendations are still in effect, but states are starting to loosen restrictions. Today is the first day restaurants in Minnesota can reopen to eat-in customers, as long as they have outdoor seating. While I’m waiting for a chance to head to one of my favorite Minnesota restaurants I decided to recreate a little bit of its magic…
