A Day in the Twin Cities

RAPID CITY, SD – Late Thursday night when the wheels on MARV stopped outside a suburb of St. Paul, MN, we found ourselves at the home of Pete’s brother, Tom Eyre, Jr. Like we stated previously, we had planned to be in the Twin Cities for a few days but due to some last minute stops we arrived a few days later. Tom and his wife, Sara, were kind enough (like so many others) to open their home to us making it possible for us to do laundry (see disaster below), use their internet, cook breakfast and a take showers. We spent the day working from the Eyre home and it was a very relaxing work environment so thanks Tom & Sara!

It wasn’t long before we were off to the downtown area of Minneapolis. Pete had some banking things to take care of and we were hoping to score a sweet parking spot for MARV outside Jager Club, the meetup location. We accomplished both and seven o’clock came before we knew it so we headed into the Jager Club, a nice little bar just north of the warehouse district. If it wasn’t so cold/rainy we could have used the back patio w/ fire pits. We started the meetup with everyone introducing themselves and stating how they came into the movement. The Minneapolis group was diverse with folks from Liberty on the Rocks, the Chairmain of the City’s Republican Party (although he’s an anarchist), former Ron Paul meetup group members and even a woman who joined us from the main bar. There were even two folks from the Madison, WI meetup that decided to take a road trip to the Twin Cities and hang out with us – thanks again Briana and Matt. On behalf of MHD I would like to thank all of you for letting us hang out with ya’ll, those who gave donations for gas, shot a video with us, bought some food for the group, signed our guestbook and engaged in some great discussions. Whatever you’re doing to promote freedom, keep up the good work.
