U.S. Route 61

Interesting web surf:

Ran into a local Mora website with a search engine:

Kanabec County Times Online
http://www.moraminn.com/

They have a Looking Back section. For example:

Reading a note about something that happend 50 years ago on "Highway 61" piqued my interest.
It doesn't exist anymore in this area and is I-35.

Found a note about the highway here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_61

This talks alot about the northern section and about Dylan's classic Highway 61 Revisted.
Gonna burn that disk now and take a listen.

Am I a real Minnesotan now? :)
