San Francisco in less than two hours!
December 17, 2016
Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Well, I lived it! And it was the most fun four people could have in less than two hours. This was the same weekend of my brother’s wedding in northern California. Our flight home wasn’t until Monday evening so we had several hours to play with. One thing we absolutely had … More San Francisco in less than two hours!

Minnesota State Fair 2016
November 12, 2016
Guessing most of you know that we always go to the state fair. Every year, without fail. And now that I think about it, this is one thing I will really miss when I leave Minnesota. A wonderful treat every year. Although this year we noticed it was a bit more crowded. The attendance numbers … More Minnesota State Fair 2016
