Thanks for the great work on Minnesota parks and everything. I especially like what you added to William O' Brien State Park. Keep it up! -the dharma bum 20:10, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

You also did a nice job on John Latsch State Park, which was just a little stub before you expanded it. Would you like to join the Minnesota Wikiproject? Jonathunder 16:46, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coworker too.

You've been busy! You want a little background on the Franz Jevne State Park? I drove there with Franz's son Bob Jevne in 1998, after a visit we made to the Northwest Angle. He was about 80 years old. He was a retired librarian from the University of Minnesota who ate late lunches at St. Martin's Table, not far from Wilson Library, where he volunteered. That is where I met him. Franz Jevne was, if I remember right, the District Attorney of Koochiching County. He donated the land as a state park. Franz had acquired it, if I remember correctly, as payment for services. You may contact Bob Jevne's relatives. He died a couple of years ago. His nephew is a lawyer in Minneapolis, I believe.

[edit] DYK

On December 11, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Natural Bridge State Park (Wisconsin), which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Hello Mcghiever, and thank you for creating this interesting article, which GeeJo kindly nominated. In future, feel free to self-nominate, as the majority of our articles are self-nominated. Happy editing, Blnguyen (bananabucket) 00:46, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Minnesota State Parks

In my wanderings around Minnesota wiki articles I came across some of yours on state parks, and discovered the breadth and depth of your contributions there. Outstanding work! It would be great to see one of them as a Featured Article. (FAs tend to be gargantuan in size; it would be nice to see one that merely says what it needs to say, and stops-- as do your articles on Minnestoa parks.)

And if you feel so inclined and time permits, you may want to have a look at some of the articles being created or expanded on features in the Arrowhead region. Here are a few: Boundary Waters, Boundary Waters Canoe Area, North Shore (Lake Superior), Superior National Forest, Grand Portage National Monument, Duluth Complex, Sawtooth Mountains, Misquah Hills, Eagle Mountain (Minnesota), Moose Mountain (Minnesota); Palisade Head, Height of Land Portage. Any input or criticism would be appreciated. Kablammo 15:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
