Bike Trip


Hi Everyone,

Recently Mark and I spent a weekend with friends biking in Minnesota lake country. There were 6 couples in all and we stayed at a Bed and Breakfast created from an old school house. We stayed the 3rd grade classroom. It was beautifully restored and the owners were wonderful hosts. In that area all the little towns are connected by a very nice bike path made on an old railroad bed. We started riding in the morning and stopped in the first little town for a rest and a latte. In the next town they had a street fair going on and I found an antique iron that I just had to have so found a way to tie it on my bike for the ride home! We got back to our B&B just ahead of the rain! In the evening we attended a production at a local country theater. We also found some local eating establishment with some surprising great food! Plus had fun exploring the many little antiques, books and craft shops. It was a great weekend and I think it will become an annual event.
