Twin Cities

Carrie had a shop she wanted to go to right away when we arrived in Mpls.   The kids were thrilled to see the nice park right by the place.   C had packed a lunch so it worked great for them to eat and have a nice play time after being in the car for 5 hours.
Then we went to a few more places on the list and they brought books to read.    A couple people stopped to talk to the kids and see what they were reading.     
This morning we walked around Centennial Lake near our hotel.   It's such a pleasant place with condos, offices, restaurants and shops all around the lake.   I especially enjoy the piped music.
The colorful paddle boats are available for rent.
A men's croquet team was out in their uniforms having a great time. 
Ellie had it in her head she should have her picture taken at this post.
The kids enjoyed the flowers and getting a lesson on how the bees love hanging out around them.

A Summer Evening Drive

A couple nights ago our neighbor (Sandra) came knocking on our door and asked if we'd like to go out for a ride in "The Chevy"...
