A Drive Through Brainerd, MN

[Paults12]

Loved the technology at the beginning of the video. Also, felt like I was the one driving through MN... It was a weird but thrilling feeling. Good job!

Love Brainerd,

But Paul Bunyan Park was in Brainerd for years.

[mailforward4me]

You have kind of a serious error there......

Paul Bunyon & Babe the Blue Ix are from Bemidji, Minnesota not Brainered !!!!!!

[eluko79]

@mailforward4me

Oh I know. Its been in Bemidji since 1937 I believe. But after the movie "Fargo" the town's been synonymous for that so I thought I'd put that in there. I'll always consider Bemidji their true home though despite what the Coen brothers believe.

@mailforward4me Paul and Babe have always been in Brainerd,at Paul Bunyon Land.

What song is that you use in this video? I've heard before but can't remember who sings it.

[eluko79]

@VaFreeways

Its the old Pete & Pete theme song. "Hey Sandy" by Polaris.

[VaFreeways]

Nice video. Like the song, too.

[JcBrooks651]

Were you coming from Breezy Point?

[eluko79]

@JcBrooks651

I was actually coming from Laporte by Walker, but decided this was a better starting point for the video.

[CAMINOANDALUZ]

[giorgiovigo]

Thanks for the car tour. Giorgio

[Freewayjim]

[eluko79]

@Freewayjim

Thanks Jim. Its quite an old town.

[TheSmooveZ]

Boy Brainerd is getting big these days. Outstanding vid.

[eluko79]

@TheSmooveZ

Thanks Smoove. With the new 371 going through Baxter it'd be nice to see the two towns merge and up the population.

"Pete and Pete" :-D

Wasn't the show based out of Minnesota?

Nice video, by way. This song took me back down memory lane. ;-)

[eluko79]

@Bryant5493

Thanks Bryant. Some of the episodes implied references to MN but some also implied to upstate NY as well. It was never clear on that.

[Bryant5493]

@eluko79

You're welcome, Luke.

Okay, loved that show.
