Is Summer Over?


It's almost October.  I guess, officially, summer is over.  I'm looking back through photos and...we just had such a nice summer.  Our friends, the Nash's, came all the way from Maine to visit us in August.  It's funny how we rarely do the touristy things in the town where we live.  When we have guests, we take them out to "see" Minneapolis and we discover so much of our own hometown!  This is the Stone Arch bridge which reaches over the Mississippi River.  All over Minneapolis, there are these neon green bikes that you can rent, ride and return at any other bike stand around the city.  After we walked with all the kids across the bridge and partied a little at a Polish Festival, we decided to ride these bikes back across the bridge.  It was so fun, we kept riding alongside the river before returning the bikes.

And, of course, rides at the Mall of America - so close and yet...we never go!

Mark and I spent an evening at the zoo listening to Robert Cray (opening band was Lamont Cranston).

And, finally, the the great Minnesota get-together - the State Fair.  Now, we know summer is truly over.
