I played in a folk music band in St. Paul, MN. We volunteered to play for a fundraiser before a St. Paul Saints (baseball) game for the local hospital’s childrens’ burn unit. It was a pig roast. They roasted a pig for the burned kids. Roasted pig next to roasted kids. The band got it. Only the band

I’ve read that there is still an original spring in Washington Square Park - and to see it you have to open a closet in the basement of one of the apartment buildings on the northeast corner.
