Grew up in Roseville, MN. Saw my first Twins games as a kid with my grandmother during the 1961 inaugural season. My mother didn't throw away my baseball cards, so I still have quite a collection from 1961-1965.
Studied Chinese language in college, entire life in international business.
All of us have great Twins memories. I remember boarding a plane for Russia when game 6 of the 1987 World Series seemed hopeless, and landed to news of a victory. Was sitting at a restaurant in a remote city in China during game 6 of the 1991 series, calling my parents very 5 minutes. My mom told me she wouldn't answer unless something happened. 3 or 4 calls later, she answered: "Kirby hit a home run!!!!"
I now work in China but have a condo in Minneapolis. Flex 40 season tickets, so expect to see 10 games this year. The Twins Daily is a great tool for me to check in daily.

Just noticed your message, that you are now in Hartford. In terms of living "afar", I have a few more miles -- grew up in Roseville, now live in Beijing, China!
