Geeky Minnesota: The Bakken Museum

Minnesota is well known for its many inventors. One of those inventors has a charming little museum here by the name of The Bakken Museum. It is in an old mansion and dedicated to electricity. See there's this man named Earl Bakken who founded a company called Medtronic. A company that is quite famous for it's contributions to medical devices such as the pacemaker. I mean the easiest way to say this is: Minnesota is full of nerds.

The museum isn't huge but it's unique and certainly worth a visit. Bring a picnic there's a gorgeous lake across the street.
