Just over 10 years ago, my husband and I decided it was time to move from southern Illinois back to our home state of Minnesota. We felt that a central Minnesota location would best facilitate the needs of the small business venture on which we were about to embark, and we wanted to be closer to our families. At the time, we had one toddler and three beloved dogs, but were planning to expand our family and wanted to locate in a safe community with a small-town feel, quality schools and medical care, recreational opportunities and adequate shopping and dining establishments.
