Second, follow your water all the way to an ocean, naming the rivers and cities/states/countries along the way (if applicable). This link will help MN people get started: MN Basins. Note that the colors and associated names at the outside of the map give the major river that will head to an ocean. You may have to google after that. Other states may have a similar thing, you will need to search.
