He spent about 20 years with Schwan's wearing a variety of hats, including government <br />affairs /corporate marketing/public relations. He was also a three -term state legislator. Miller was cutting back from 6o hours at work, had <br />children through college and no reason to stay in southwestern Minnesota. His wife liked the Brainerd lakes area and after they looked at all the <br />places they could go, they settled in the Merrifield area a couple of years ago. He said the Brainerd area has so many transplants, people are <br />welcoming to newcomers. <br />'This is a destination point. I'm no different than i,000 people up here," Miller said. "No matter what your interest is, you can find it up here. <br />Why wouldn't somebody live here versus the metro area given the opportunity.' <br />RF.NFX RICHARDSON may be reached at i ar rc`. it +an : -; i:.. i . a rci.i ; j:. ~ra.c >tn or 855-5852• <br />Brainerd Dispatch Qzou.
