You do not have to travel far to find the beauty of Canada geese taking to the air. The open water below the Sartell dam on the Mississippi River is a perfect place to stop, look and listen as these creatures make their way to feeding grounds late in the day. As spring gets closer they will pair up and start the cycle all over again. Nature always has a way of putting a smile on your face.

This falling condensation tower at the Verso paper plant was toppled over on the afternoon of Nov. 13, sadly symbolizing the end of an era in Sartell, where paper-making at that site had been a generational bedrock of the city for nearly 110 years. The tower’s toppling was part of the overall demolition of the plant, a mammoth undertaking by American Iron and Metal, which purchased the site and its plant in order to salvage and recycle its materials. Verso closed permanently after an explosion and fire at the plant on Memorial Day 2012 killed one worker and severely damaged the plant, making its reopening financially unfeasible.
