Oh, The Places You'll Go!

Okay, so I'm going to be the weakest link here and release the news that we have been so jealously guarding.

As you may have guessed from the recent plethora of Barrows related posts, the Manly Mustaches official Spring Break road trip has set this year's destination as the noble principality (constitutional monarchy?) of Barrows, Minnesota. I'm going to do my best to keep my lips sealed on the details. Suffice to say that sometime around Wednesday, ya'll really ought to make it a point to check out the Mustache blog. Oh, the places we'll go! I have a feeling that some of our Barrows images could have a chance in the Manly Mustaches Spring Break photo contest. Oh yeah, it's a contest. You won't win anything but recognition as the best and international fame (Minnesota+Italy=international). Just photographically capture yourself in the act of gesticulating wildly while wearing a mustache shirt and standing in front of something beautiful and exotic and famous. Or go to Barrows or whatever...

In sadder news, our neighbors to the far west (and a little south, I guess; where is Milano, Italy in relation to Brainerd? And is Milano just Italian for Milan?) have had a loss in the e-family. Sir Alex's blog has mysteriously vanished, along with the profile of the good knight himself. We offer our deepest condolences, but we must exhort you to rise again: It is your duty as representatives of the great country of Italy to fight back against adversity and create a new blog, greater and more Italian than any that has come before.

P.S.: Fanya's interests include "worms", a sentiment shared by a bizarrely wide spectrum of bloggers. Plus, Hot Shots.
