Popular Culture
Jim Fletcher, the author of The Lore Adventure Trilogy, built several small villages with the help of both students of the Pelican Rapids High School, and other local people. Several of these villages are placed in Maplewood State Park. One is accessible by a hiking trail, while another is located inside one of the lakes. Those are two of the known locations, while there may be many others inside of Maplewood.
Jim Fletcher also is an artist, and he was chosen to paint a mural onto one of the walls in Pelican Rapids High School. The artist told a friend that the mural was a hint to where one of his villages was hidden. The mural is not visible to the public, for that part of the school is dangerous.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“Vodka is our enemy, so let’s finish it off.”
—Russian saying popular in the Soviet period, trans. by Vladimir Ivanovich Shlyakov (1993)
“Our culture still holds mothers almost exclusively responsible when things go wrong with the kids. Sensing this ultimate accountability, women are understandably reluctant to give up control or veto power. If the finger of blame was eventually going to point in your direction, wouldn’t you be?”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
