What trip to Bemidji would be complete without stopping by to see the most famous mythical lumberjack of all time? My oldest friend in the world, Ben, and I saw Paul Bunyan and his trusty sidekick Babe, the blue ox. Created in 1937, standing 18ft tall, this fridge-shaped Paul is rumored to be the first of the iconic statues in the country.
