Welcome to
Linden Hills, Minnesota.
our theme is
Where I Shop
We live in the country about five miles from quaint
little downtown Lakeville, a suburb of Minneapolis,
which is approximately 23 miles away.
But Lakeville also has a sprawling area along
Highway 35W that's called Uptown Lakeville.
This reconditioned building was once a bank, and through the years it has housed other business adventures, even a tailor's shop.

Artsy stuff!
This shop features lots of unexpected discoveries
for the hard to shop for person.

I'm a huge fan of window shopping, and not just for things to buy. Most shops post various activities announcing what's coming to our little town.
The Wizard of Oz how cool is that?!

Just one of the several unique flower shops around town.
No waiting right now for a table at the Mainstreet Coffee and Wine Bar.
I like their mural too, it depicts an area in town.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Or is it Ho! Ho! Ho!
Now that Halloween is over and November is here, all the pumpkins have been put to bed and Santa and other Christmas time creatures are on sale!

If it's a bit of cheer you're looking for, my grocery store in town
sells lovely flowers all year long.
So I hope you enjoyed a quick few shops from my downtown where I shop sometimes!

Just keep conquering!
Thanks for stopping in to say hello and enjoy your evening!

How sweet that we both live in country places with nearby small town and more remote city (San Francisco). We're country gals!
looks like some nice shops.
Let me think. You love your themes, huh.
I am not a shopper (except for books and plants and essentials). These vistas tempted me though.
You've got some interesting shops along there! And I'm pleased to see there is a coffee shop/cafe included! Always a good place for a pause! Thanks, Karen.
Hello, looks like a lovely town. The shops look great, I would like to visit the coffee and wine bar! :)
Happy Thursday, enjoy your day and weekend ahead!
Oh I would have been into Pink Door in a flash, the perhaps a bunch of flowers and a cup of coffee.. I enjoyed very much Karen, merci beaucoup ☺
I love going on adventures with you. And I want to live in a town like this one. We are looking...Thanks! Have a great day! Hugs.
Old bank buildings used to be so fancy. Now they tend to look like mall outlets.
