Where does "Nord" come from?
Nord is a word that means "north" in several European languages according to Wikipedia and "L’etoile du Nord", Star of the North is the motto for our home state of Minnesota. Whether in Minnesota, Wisconsin or Colorado, we focus on destinations in the North and that have that "up North" feel to them.
