Our News Cut weekend project is open for business! This is the weekend selected for the Third Annual Weekend in the Life of Minnesota. We're collecting your images that perfectly -- in your opinion -- capture the essence of a moment in Minnesota that you experience over the weekend. It can be work, play, or something in between. I'll add them as we go through the weekend and hopefully by Monday we'll have a very diverse collection.

Use this form to send your pictures, or you can e-mail them to me at bcollins@mpr.org.

Great idea....it seems like everyone I have talked with this weekend is too depressed about the weather and the state of the world to even take a photo. That said, I will work on something tommorow. There is a lot of beauty
in my yard alone. My husband was smart enought to mow on Thursday night, so we are in good shape. Even our dog seems to be in the doldrums--she just lays by the door and won't go outside, except when necessary.

Yes, I mowed on Thursday too and actually if others were like me -- kinda dumb -- THAT would be a great picture. A guy racing to finish mowing, in the rain, while lightning flashes around him -- just because ....

Actually, Mr. Newscut mowed Friday night with sirens going off, lightening in the area, but he finished just as the first drop of rain hit and although not the most intelligent choice he has ever made, I have to keep in mind he married me and that took a genius! LOL

I had no idea, actually, there was a waterfall to be found up near Ely.

When I discovered the trail to it, and found the hikers at the cascade, I realized I could keep up the theme I established last year of "people enjoying a waterfall"
