Americana Treasures with the Minnesota Merchant

#americana #travel #biography
While exploring wild rice up in Minnesota, we found ourselves in the delightful company of Mr. Shields. Mr. Shields is the type of Renaissance man filled with so many stories that you can't help but to document his colorful life. It's rather futile to put someone like him into a box, but in this video we see glimpses of his life as a collector, a woodsman, and a family man.

Thank you so much for your heartwarming comment. So glad to hear from someone who has also met him. Salt of the earth is very true. We just loved his energy.

I really enjoyed this video. You can tell he was so proud of his stuff and it made him so happy that you showed interest in everything. You were SO sweet! I subscribed and I hope you will do more videos like this of the people who live life in their own way and on their own terms. Great work!

Makes me sad because I live here, although I live in a small north central tourist town and it’s mostly red out here the blue big cities keep voting democrat and are destroying us !!! Look at what Tim Walz has done to this state now imagine him as the vice president…..that’s scary !!!
