Map: Minnesota Scenic Lake


MINNESOTA is our 32nd State (1858). Capital: St. Paul. Name derived from the Sioux Indian, meaning sky-tinted water. Its 10,000 lakes are said to have been made by Paul Bunyan's blue ox, Babe. Longfellow's famous poem The song of Hiawatha tells of Minnesota waterfalls that "flached and gleamed" and rivers that rushed through "palisades of pine trees."

Dutch in Michigan


HOLLAND, MICHIGAN
It's Tulip Time every year in May. It is a gay , festive occasion with Dutch costumed children, folk dances of the Netherlands, and tulips everywhere.


On February 9, 1847, The Rev. Albertus C. Van Raalte and a band of Hollanders founded the city of Holland. Within two years, the other four original colonies - Graafschap, Zeeland, Vriesland, Overisel - had also been established. Plagued by illness and not accustomed to the task of clearing a wilderness, the settlers found their first year a hard one, but their suffering was to be repaid in the bountiful days ahead.
