COLLECTION.

>> Cathy: WELL, FRIENDS, THE TIME HAS COME TO TURN OUR ATTENTION TO MINNESOTA HISTORY AND SEE IF WE CAN STUMP SOME OF YOU WITH THIS WEEK'S QUESTION.

HERE'S A NOTE BEFORE WE BEGIN, THOUGH.

LONG-TIME VIEWERS OF THE PROGRAM MIGHT HAVE THE INSIDE TRACK ON THIS ONE.

WE'RE GOING TO TRAVEL BACK TO MAY OF 2015.

NOW, WE ROSHTED SOMETHING UNUSUAL ON THE SHOW AND TOLD YOU TO PAY ATTENTION BECAUSE IT WOULD BECOME A FUTURE INDEX FILE QUESTION AND GUESS WHAT.

THAT DAY HAS COME, MY FRIENDS.

IT'S SPRING TIME IN MINNESOTA.

SOMEONE OR SOMETHING TRAVELS SOUTH TO A PLACE RARELY VISITED BY MIDWESTERNERS.

IT IS THE FIRST TIME THIS PARTICULAR THING HAS VISITED THIS PLACE IN MORE THAN A DECADE.

OUR QUESTION FOR YOU, WHO OR WHAT AM I?

EXTRA CREDIT OF COURSE ALWAYS GOES TO THE VIEWER WHO CAN ADD IN DETAILS THAT LEAD US TO REPORT ON THIS EVENT.

(651)229-1430 IS THE HANDY NUMBER TO CALL.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU WHETHER YOU'RE CALLING FROM FIDDLE CREEK, BOASTERRING CREEK OR THE BLUE GRASS CEMETERY IN LE SUEUR COUNTY.

IF YOU WANT TO DROP US A NOTE INSTEAD, OUR EMAIL ADDRESS IS "ALMANAC"@TPT.ORG.

WE HAVE JUST ENOUGH TIME FOR SOME SHOW-ENDING MUSIC FROM THE ARCHIVES.

IT WAS THIS WEEK BACK IN 2000 THAT GRAMMY AWARD WINNER, COUNTRY SINGER KATHY MATTEA PERFORMED RIGHT HERE IN STUDIO "B."

HSHE AND HER BAND EVEN JOINED US AFTER THE SHOW FOR A LITTLE BARBECUE FUN.

HERE IS KATHY MATTEA SINGING "THE INNOCENT YEARS."

TAKE CARE.

WE'LL SEE YOU AGAIN NEXT WEEK.
