Cor, Arden Hills, I know it well. Just south of the junction with I694.
There's a good model shop just south of there, or there was anyway.
Great landing, and at night too!

When I first read the subject line my first thought was “that’s impossible Viking is billions of miles away!”.
At least the pilot missed all the highway light poles!
