Twin Sisters
You'll find 83-year-old Marion Larson serving up breakfast and lunch at the Cottage Inn Cafe and her twin sister, 83-year-old Marge Lentis serving up beer at night at Buzz's Tavern in Big Stone City, South Dakota, right across the Minnesota border!

Sauerkraut Grandpa
Every fall, 77-year-old Blaske of Milaca, Minnesota, makes 120 jars or so of homemade sauerkraut, then gives it away to family and friends.  He is a master of cabbage!
