Be sure to swing through Virginia on your way north. A visit to Canelake’s Candies, Minnesota’s oldest candy store, is always a good idea. Yum!

Is the Sawmill restaurant still there? Haven’t been through Virginia in many many years.

It is! You could also check out BoomTown for some local brews.

Oh I’m very much aware. Spent almost a decade working at a summer camp east of Eveleth, taking nights off to go to movies and Target and The Sawmill in Virginia, MN. I’ve gone so far as to lead ropes course team building for a couple years for the Virginia college football team.

Sorry I didn't mean you. You guys clearly know the area. I just wanted to hang a sign for anyone else who thought of the state first and went "huh, that's out of the way."

Open to how I could have signaled that better.

Totally fair, I definitely didn’t need to jump to the defense and start touting my bonafides. Thanks for clarifying!
