Minnesota Time

The feel of fall is in the air! Where has the summer gone? Well it has been a busy one and we have enjoyed every moment of it! We spent the night in Dickinson, ND last night and felt like we were in Albany, Oregon. The rain came down most of the night, so we decided that we are retired and there is no rush to get going, so I played catch - up! All play and no work makes for a lot of undone work, so I cleaned and caught up on my ironing today and now I am even catching my blog up to date! Woo Hoo!

Red Wing

These kids are hard to get in a photograph any more - they are too busy and on the run constantly.

A couple of days spent in Duluth, MN

This was the lift bridge that connected the main land to a small Island that we stayed on. We could certainly have stayed here for more days than what we had allowed! Enjoy more pictures by clicking on the bridge!

Walker, MN

As we traveled from Montana to MN, we stopped in Walker, MN and saw the beautiful Leech Lake. It was just the beginning of seeing several beautiful lakes! You would think that we were in Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes! Click on the picture to see more.

Here we are at Painted Valley of the T Roosevelt National Park this morning and the humidity was so high that you can see the haze in the distance. We had a very cool day travelling today which was so nice. Tomorrow we head to Duluth, MN. Go up and relax a couple of days before we head down to Justin and Kathy's.

These pictures were taken at Theodore Roosevelt National Park out of Medora, North Dakota. We were expecting to see some wild animals, but only ones that we saw were prairie dogs! Was a nice little drive, but not what we expected to see!

Update to August 14th post

Can you imagine me wanting it a shade of blue??

Check out this once rusty sprocket!

Dave has spent many many hours redoing a bike for me. I got a new one in a 24 inch and found it was a hard one to ride, so we went to a pawn shop and bought an old rusty, yukky 24" three speed and now you can see the wonderful job that he did fixing it up for me! I am very excited about it. Now to just get out and ride it!!!

Have a good week!
