What your neighbors are talking about on social media
- Has anyone had a screen porch installed complete with roof attached to the house etc?
I'm curious whom or what company might do that and be located somewhat near our Northfield location. (Nextdoor St. Olaf) - PSA: Although the price of eggs at the Super Target in Apple Valley is lower than in Lakeville and higher than the price of a gallon of 85% ethanol at the Holiday/Circle K in Northfield, the best prices for a gallon of gas or a gallon of everclear
can be found in Caracas, Venezuela and near Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Property taxes are low for you if you are a sultan in UAE, so definitely go there… (Nextdoor Sumner St E)
