The Acoustic Cafe in Winona was hopping on the Sunday after Christmas during our meet and greet there. Luckily, the hot chocolates they serve are piled high with whipped cream, which kept the kids happy while Paul talked about the campaign. Paul has been to Winona five times since he began campaigning, so our supporters are beginning to feel like old friends. It is a great town with a lively mainstreet (Paul’s dad went to college there), and there is always something new to discover.
