Lake Vermilion is HUGE, as shown by this image is from Google Earth.
We were raised in Minnesota and anyone who lives in Minnesota knows that one of the most common vacation destinations during the summer months is “up north”. Up north meaning literally anywhere north of where you are and also the northern half of the state.
Minnesota also more than lives up to it’s slogan of the land of 10,000 lakes… in reality there are 11, 842 lakes bigger than 10 acres each… but who’s counting besides the DNR… anyway, it’s a gorgeous state literally peppered with thousands and thousands of lakes and the thing to do there when the weather is nice is to “head up north to one of those lakes, which is what Kari and her friends do… head north to an area filled with lakes and the small towns and people who depend on those lakes and their visitors for their livelihoods. In today’s story…. Kari gives you a glimpse into what it means to head “up north” to the lakes of Minnesota and the kinds of adventures you might have in the show we’re calling Welcome to Lake Vermilion or how in the hell did I end up here on vacation?

NOTE: Today's Episode is in honor of this badass, sassy, take no prisoners, party until she’s says stop, tough as nails and fun as hell grandma, who I’m sure is having a cold one, raising hell, and telling all her best dirty jokes right now.
RIP Grandma Pat: 1926-2019 Life truly is an an adventure and it’s probably no surprise that myself and my four sisters seem to have more adventures than normal! After all, the show’s not called How in the Hell did I get here for nothing! Today’s episode is in honor of our maternal grandmother, Grandma Pat, who is featured in our first story. She was truly remarkable… a mother of 8, a grandmother of many including three great, great, great grandchildren. Sadly we lost her in early February of 2019, less than 48 hours after this podcast went live and I like to think she hung around to see it happen. They broke the mold after Grandma was born, you’ll understand what I mean when you hear our first story which happened at a family party a long time ago. In our second story, I find myself divorced and ready to go on a vacation! So, I do the logical thing… find a women’s travel adventure company and book myself on an adventure to Cozumel (side note, have you noticed when I go to Mexico crazy things happen to me? Um yeah!) It turns out to be a great trip, but little did I know the adventure would start before I even got on the plane! Everyone loves a good garage sale, right? In our third story today, Erin decides to throw the Mother of all garage sales and the prep takes weeks! I’m there to help out and it’s going great... until the day she tells me that we have to set up seven teepees…. Let me repeat that: seven teepees…. On the lawn…. In 98 degree heat….

We've all had strange encounters with animals... maybe a bat swoops through your living room, a deer jumps in front of your car, or a mouse runs up to you in the kitchen, and in true How in the Hell did I get here fashion, sisters Jenny Gardner, Kim A. Flodin, and Erin Beach take it up a notch in this episode featuring three stories of strange encounters with animals.
In the first story, Jenny shares the time she had a real-life sighting of Monkey Dog! What's a monkey dog you ask? Listen in to find out! In the next story, Kim, Jenny and Erin share a harrowing tale of a dark and misty night at Jenny and family's hobby farm. What was that thing shuffling and snorting in the shadows? Is it dangerous? Will it eat the dog? Will anyone ever respond to Erin's screams of terror? In our final story, Kim ventures out of the country for the very first time and finds herself in a hostage situation... with a monkey! Note: You can see the dog with the human face in our Facebook group!

Kim introduces her four sisters in this episode featuring Kari Flodin, Jenny Gardner and Erin Beach.
Kari's husband Jack was a pretty special guy and when he came up with the idea of getting a pet donkey, he and Kari had a good laugh and carried on... but only until September of 2018, when we lost Jack. When Jack passed, Jenny, Erin and Skye flew from the Midwest to Florida to be with Kari and almost her new pet donkey! Can you have a donkey in the guestroom? Does she need a goat now, too? Would they end up at Donkeys are Us? Listen now to find out. Jack was a great guy, a retired homicide detective and as mentioned, a great husband to Kari, you can learn more about him here.
