"We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us." – Robyn Yong
Many times when you travel, you find a place that absolutely delights you. This describes my time perfectly on a recent trip to Luverne, Minnesota. Luverne is a town of just less than 5000 friendly people in Southwest Minnesota. For a town its size, it has a surprising amount of quality attractions. But the one that most captivated my heart was a collection of 6708 nutcrackers at the Rock County Historical Museum on Main Street.
Sometimes when I travel I like to go to big cities with many attractions. And sometimes it’s refreshing to go to a small town and discover it also has a surprising number of quality attractions. Luverne, Minnesota is one of those towns!
