“Paul and Peggy Sannerud celebrated our 40th anniversary. We met while working at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. Paul designed many buildings at the Festival, including the "new" Bad Manor, and Peggy was a stage manager and character actor. They dated for nearly 3 months before getting married. The rest - is HISTORY!!“
